Import Tips
• Verify exact capacity measurement under 11.36 liters to avoid reclassification to larger pails
• Provide lab certification on plastic material (e.g
• HDPE) to confirm compliance with Chapter 39 polymer notes
• Include detailed packing specs and end-use declaration to prevent misclassification as household items
