What are the requirements for  shipping Organic product that is sealed & only distributed by a certified distributor? What are the requirements of the shipping company? This would be LTL and more like UPS or FedX. We are getting certified to distribute sealed organic material but I can't find the shipping carrier requirments.

 

Thank you!

There should be clear identification that the material/product is organic, either on the cases or containers, and also the Bill of Lading/Shipping documents should list Organic as well.  Attached is an interwebs pulled example.

Great- thank you. Just to confirm the freight carrier does not have to to anything like segregate the product?

I wouldn't accept co-mingling.  On the same truck/shipment this would be ok, but not on the same pallet.  Identity preserved foods should be segregated.
