Hazardous Goods is a secondary quest in The Witcher 3. On the road, Geralt will meet Gert Borel, whose cart with dead bodies is attacked by a group of Ghouls.

Journal entry[ | ]

On one of Velen's muddy roads Geralt came across an unfortunate soul trapped under his cart. The man had had an accident while hauling corpses of plague victims. The witcher decided to help him.
Geralt helped the man right his cart. He also advised him to burn everything he was wearing and give his body a good scrubbing, yet the man brushed off this bit of sage counsel, claiming no contagion could touch him.

Walkthrough[ | ]

  • Fight the Ghouls
  • Talk to Gert Borel about the wagon and the plague victims he's transporting
    • Although Borel is convinced he is somehow immune to every illness, Geralt doesn't think so and can talk the man into burning the wagon.
    • Doing so gives Geralt additional 10 XP earned based on the Story and Swords! difficulty level.
  • Geralt can also leave in saying "Time I was on my way"

Note[ | ]

The Witcher can meet Gert Borel again sometime later in fields between Reardon Manor and the village Benek, next to an old, run-down house. Borel then will be very desperate and terribly sick, only asking the Witcher to give him a quick death. The Witcher can do this last task for Gert or leave him be.
