How to Use This Classification
- Identify the exact oilfield item (casing, tubing, wellhead valves, downhole tools) and select the specific NMFC sub-item; this group header does not set the class.
- Document packaging per handling unit: palletized valves, crated wellhead assemblies, or banded pipe bundles with end caps and wood chocks, plus dimensions and weight.
- Note pickup/delivery conditions common to rigs and yards: appointments, limited access, muddy surfaces, or driver assist. Add accessorials to avoid carrier refusals.
- For oily or used gear, cap threads, drain residual fluids, and wrap with poly or drip liners to prevent seepage even though the freight is non-hazardous.
Business Value
- Reduce reclass and surprise charges by mapping each item to its correct NMFC sub-item instead of relying on the group header.
- Cut damage risk and downtime costs by protecting threads, sealing pressure faces, and stabilizing bundles for forklift handling.
- Speed quoting and tendering with standard pack methods (pallet, crate, bundle) and clear counts per handling unit for accurate LTL rating.
- Avoid hazmat fees and extra paperwork thanks to the non-hazardous designation, streamlining dispatch and transit.
