How to Use This Classification
- Match your product to the specific feed listing: note animal type, form (pellet, mash, cracked grain), and whether medicated to locate the exact item under the Feed Group.
- Detail packaging and unitization on the BOL: example—50 lb paper bags, 40 per 40x48 pallet, stretch-wrapped with top sheet; or bulk in FIBC totes with liners.
- Control moisture and spill risk: use poly-lined bags or liners, add edge boards and top covers, and avoid pallet overhang to cut claims and prevent rework.
- Plan delivery needs typical for farms and feed stores: request liftgate or appointment service, and reference NMFC 66700 alongside the precise item code once confirmed.
Business Value
- Faster quoting and fewer reclasses by signaling the Feed Group commodity while you finalize the exact item number.
- Lower damage and claim costs through moisture-aware packaging choices (liners, top sheets) and secure palletization for bagged feed.
- Better rate leverage by selecting efficient packaging—palletized bags vs. FIBC totes can change handling and price.
- Broader carrier eligibility and simpler paperwork since the commodity is non-hazardous, improving service options and transit reliability.
