We ship FedEx ground primarily but in the winter months would like the option to do expedited air shipments even though our product is a dangerous good in the air. Plus DG paperwork is cumbersome while also requiring the upmost accuracy. With similar templates to what is already provided that could greatly streamline our process and allow us to do more with shipstation.

    We need dangerous goods declaration with fedex or ups. Would be great if Shipstation can incorporate this.

    FedEx just added flags for Section II lithium batteries shipped via air. We need to be able to select these flags and needs to print whatever is required on the shipping label.

    We also have a client that ships Lithium Ion battery packs and need to mark items as Dangerous Goods for FedEx. So FirstMile is your Integrated Fedex Reseller? Is that still the case as this post is from Dec 2015? What is their contact information? This is putting a major crimp on the shipping flow by having to create our own separate FedEx shipping labels and manually marking products as shipped.

    We ship lithium batteries and need to be able to add to the shipping label "contents" : "Merchandise. Includes Lithium ion batteries in compliance with Section II of P1965" This should be for all carriers. We use Canada Post, DHL Express Canada, FedEx, and UPS.

    Just adding my voice of support to this, there's a second thread started already, but Fedex has a hazmat API built and would really be the best. I'd be willing to pay a premium to ship Hazmat through Fedex. Easily worth $50-100 a month extra for me really.

    Hey guys, can we combine this with this thread: http://feedback.shipstation.com/forums/330429-product-feedback-fresh-ideas/suggestions/5645919-hazmat-service-with-my-already-in-place-contract-f Might help if we added the votes together, and I still check this religiously. Fedex Hazmat integration would be phenomenal, even if we still had to fill in all the boxes manually and all that. <3

    Hey guys, just bumping this and trying to get it combined with the other Hazmat threads. Mind giving us an update?

    Hey folks, looking at nearing 4 years now, any movement on this? Could we at least combine the thread with the other hazmat threads on here? Best, James

    I'd also love this. Why is it that once Stamps.com purchased Shipstation the improvements stopped? Keep innovating or someone will eventually catch up. https://www.ezshipsoftwares.com/ we use this now but will have to build our own API to work around Shipstation.

    I spoke with FedEx and their IT team is ready and willing. We really need to add this. Batteries, Fireworks, compressed gas. Lots more we can ship.
