About NMFC Codes
Professional freight classification tools for logistics professionals
Our Mission
NMFC Codes was created to provide logistics professionals, shippers, and freight brokers with instant, accurate access to National Motor Freight Classification codes. We believe that proper freight classification shouldn't require expensive subscriptions or hours of manual research.
Our mission is to make NMFC code lookup accessible, accurate, and easy to use—helping businesses avoid costly reclassification fees and ensure efficient freight shipping operations.
