Dangerous goods sailing schedule

Some dangerous goods may be carried on regular passenger sailings. BC Ferries offers a dedicated service for transporting dangerous goods that are prohibited from transport on passenger sailings. Dangerous goods sailings provide communities with the ability to receive prohibited dangerous goods when other practical options aren't available. Dangerous goods sailings cannot carry passengers at the same time.
