How to Use This Classification

  • Document the item as inert and non-explosive. Add an inert certification or demilitarization statement on the BOL and packing list to prevent hazmat misflags.
  • Use rigid crates or heavy-duty cartons with foam blocking and corrosion inhibitors (VCI paper, desiccants). Band to a pallet with edge protectors to stabilize uneven shapes like mounts or racks.
  • Write a clear commodity description, e.g., “Ordnance group, inert components, steel, crated on pallet, non-haz.” Include piece count, total weight, and packaging type for faster carrier review.
  • Coordinate with carriers that understand defense/aerospace freight. Note “No explosives—training parts only” in pickup instructions to avoid delays or special-approval holds.

Business Value

  • Avoids hazmat surcharges and special handling fees by clearly identifying inert, non-explosive materials.
  • Reduces reclassification disputes and inspection delays through precise, NMFC-aligned descriptions and packaging notes.
  • Lowers damage risk—and claim costs—via blocking, bracing, and corrosion control tailored to metal assemblies and sensitive fittings.
  • Improves capacity options and transit reliability by using standard pallets/crates that streamline dock handling and consolidation.
