When transporting both hazardous and non-hazardous materials, it is essential that the bills describe the hazardous materials first. This is crucial because the transportation of hazardous materials carries specific risks and regulatory requirements that must be clearly communicated to ensure safety and compliance. By prioritizing the description of hazardous materials, shippers and carriers can ensure that everyone involved in the transportation process is properly informed about the potential hazards, handling procedures, and emergency response measures associated with those materials.

The proper documentation allows for quick identification and effective management of any risks involved, thereby protecting both people and the environment. This approach emphasizes the importance of transparency in the handling of hazardous materials, as it ensures that emergency responders and transport personnel are aware of the nature of the substances being transported and can act appropriately in case of an incident.
