How to Use This Classification

  • Confirm your exact glass item type, then reference Note, item 87512 to pick the correct NMFC sub-item (e.g., bottles, jars, stemware, lab glass) under this Glassware Group.
  • Match packaging to the sub-item language and list it on the BOL: partitioned cartons for bottles, molded pulp trays for jars, foam-in-place or crating for oversized glass.
  • Palletize to prevent shock: no overhang, double-wall master cartons, top/bottom sheets, edge boards, and stretch wrap with corner protectors; mark Fragile and This Side Up.
  • Document what’s inside: inner-pack counts, divider style, and crate type. Photos of the packout help carriers handle correctly and protect you in the event of a claim.

Business Value

  • Right sub-item selection reduces reclass and rebill risk, protecting margins on fragile shipments.
  • Packaging aligned to NMFC language improves handling and can support better rates through reduced damage exposure.
  • Clear BOL descriptions and labeling shorten dock time and cut claim frequency on high-breakage goods.
  • Faster quoting and routing: carriers recognize the Glassware Group context, enabling predictable pricing and service.
