For shipments of non-flammable, non-toxic gases, the shipping papers must show how much of each gas is being shipped, expressed as the number of cylinders of that gas. This quantity by container count is what responders and handlers rely on to gauge the size of the hazard and plan safely for handling, storage, and emergencies. If there are multiple gases in the shipment, each gas needs its own line with its cylinder count, so the total hazard is accurately understood.

Temperature, color, and route aren’t required details on the shipping papers for this class. Temperature isn’t a standard shipping-paper item for these gases (unless a specific temperature condition applies). Cylinder color is a labeling/identification aid, not a shipping-paper quantity requirement. Route information isn’t a mandatory item on the shipping paper itself.
