Top 10 tips for
safely storing your dangerous goods

Dangerous goods must be stored safely and properly to deduce any risk to property, people and the environment. They must be stored in containers that contain spill sumps large enough to hold their contents inside properly designed safety storage cabinets.

Taking the time to check your work place or home to identify and store any dangerous goods may save you, your family or your work mates from serious physical injury or property loss such as fire or chemical damage.

1. Ensure that all containers are labeled correctly

Make sure they’re not damaged and are sealed properly. Report any damaged or leaking containers immediately to the area supervisor

2. Always carefully inspect all safety equipment and clothing

You should do this before using and if found damaged or out of date, it needs to be replaced as it probably won’t provide adequate protection. Always wear the required safety products when handling dangerous goods such as safety glasses, gloves and adequate filtering masks

3. Always read the safety data sheets and labels

Ensure proper awareness and knowledge of dangerous goods by reading their data sheets and labels before using so that you understand the safety and handling requirements involved with their use. Don’t use dangerous goods for anything apart from their intended use

4. Never eat, drink or smoke near or when handing dangerous materials.

Always wash your hands with the recommended hand cleaner after use and before handling food, drink or items such as contact lenses or applying anything to the skin. Refrigerators designed to hold and store dangerous goods should not be used to keep food or drinks

5. Store incompatible dangerous goods separately

Ensure dangerous goods are stored in well ventilated specially designed dangerous goods storage cabinets. Avoid storing chemicals indefinitely as humidity can cause liquid chemicals to evaporate and powders to cake or harden. All containers need to have tightly sealed lids to prevent any escape of gasses or vapors. Ensure that all manufacturers’ expiration dates are strictly recorded and followed, especially reactive or dangerous compounds. Liquids, large and or heavy containers should never be stored on high shelves or in high cabinets. They should be stored at shoulder level or below so they are more easily accessed and moved. All outdated, hardened, degraded or evaporated, materials should be promptly and properly disposed of as soon as discovered

6. Make sure that everyone in areas where dangerous goods are used or stored

Make sure that everyone in areas where dangerous goods are used or stored are familiar with the safety and emergency procedures and equipment as well as evacuation procedures and drills to deal with any hazardous spills or fires.

7. Have one person appointed and trained to be in charge in the event of an emergency

Incase injury, accidents or natural disasters occur, ensure one person is appointed to be in charge, and a second person to take control if the first person is incapacitated or absent. There should always be someone trained in first aid available during working hours

8. When transporting chemicals in bottles they should be placed in leak-proof secondary containers

All gas bottles must also be transported standing upright and tied or chained securely and never leave dangerous goods unattended

9. Toxic, volatile and odoriferous chemicals must be stored in specially designed well ventilated cabinets

These goods must also be kept well away from any sources of heat or where accidental leakage could compromise other stored dangerous goods, people or property

10. Flammable liquids should be stored in approved flammable liquid storage cabinets

These cabinets need to be stored away from any other chemicals or dangerous goods All corrosive materials should be stored in non corrosive containers with spillage sumps to ensure any leaks are caught
