Do you need multiple placards on the front/back of a truck, when carrying multiple kinds of placardable hazmat?

Chevy Silverado 3500 1 Ton Flatbed

Depends on what you are hauling & the total amount. Some types can be grouped under Flammable if you are hauling different types of flammable liquids.
Some needs to have placards for each if you are hauling a mix of Flammable and Non-flammable gasses (Example: hauling acetylene & O2 to deliver to a welding shop) or if you have Oxidizers, Corrosives, etc.

If you haul HazMat often, it would be wise to pick up one of the pocket size HazMat manuals that can be found in just about all truck stops.
