Proposed code of practice for management of end-of-life lamps containing mercury: chapter 7
7. Transportation
Transportation requirements are prescribed by the authority that has jurisdiction, which is typically the provinces and territories.

Whether transported between primary collection facilities to intermediate storage facilities or from intermediate storage facilities to final processing facilities, the following are best practices for the transport of end-of-life lamps.
