How to Use This Classification
- Identify each part’s construction and form factor (e.g., steel brake rotors, plastic bumper covers, rubber seals) and list materials on the BOL to guide carrier review.
- Drain fluids from any assemblies, cap ports, and isolate electronics; use anti‑static bags and inner cartons for sensors, and band heavy metal parts to pallets.
- Prevent edge crush and movement with foam, corrugated pads, blocking, and corner boards; protect studs and sharp edges—e.g., shrink‑wrap rotors with edge guards.
- Record exact weight and dimensions and note stackability; photograph packaging before tendering to speed disputes and avoid reclass or additional handling fees.
Business Value
- Reduce reclass risk by clearly stating materials and packaging when the class is N/A, improving carrier confidence and invoice accuracy.
- Cut damage rates by matching protection to the part: rugged crating for dense metal items and cushioned, form‑fitting packs for fragile plastics.
- Accelerate quoting by providing standardized descriptions, photos, and cube data, enabling carriers to price quickly and potentially offer density or FAK options.
- Lower handling costs by palletizing mixed SKUs with partitions, labeling bins, and designing packs for safe mechanical handling.
