  • The Truth About Salvage Drums There Is Confusion in the Marketplace Regarding Salvage Drums
    The Truth About Salvage Drums There is confusion in the marketplace regarding salvage drums. The term “overpack” has become synonymous with “salvage drum” in recent years, and there are many products on the market, which look like salvage drums, but are not. What is a salvage drum? Salvage drums are designed to contain packages of hazardous materials that are damaged, defective, or found leaking. The drums are regulated by the Department of Transportation (DOT) under 49 CFR 173.3 (c). If a company or shipper has a leaking package of hazardous material, sorbents, or rags used on a spill or leak, and they wish to ship them across public roads, they must use a salvage drum under the restrictions of 173.3 (c). The salvage drum is larger than the leaking package allowing the leaking package to be placed inside the salvage drum for safe shipment to a disposal or treatment facility. The salvage drum must be compatible with the lading in the leaking package. Shipments that do not follow the DOT Hazardous Materials regulations are shipping illegally and could face fines, typically $250.00 - $25,000.00 per violation, levied by the DOT. Salvage drums can be made of steel, polyethylene, aluminum, or metal and must pass, at a minimum, standard UN performance requirements for drums shipping solids as well as a three psi, air leakproof test. If a drum meets the requirements as stipulated by DOT under 49 CFR 173.3 (c), then it is to be marked with the appropriate UN markings, proper shipping name of the material, name and address of the consignee, and the words “Salvage Drum.” It is illegal to omit these markings from salvage drums prepared in accordance with 173.3 (c).
