NMFC 100020 - Acoustic Horns Boxed/Crated | Class 100–200

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Identify the correct NMFC 100020 sub that states “without electrical components,” and confirm which of the four listings in the Class 100–200 range matches your packaging (box or crate).
2. Protect the horn flare and throat from crush damage: use foam wrap, ring collars, or end-cap boards in boxes; in crates, block and brace at the base and throat, then strap to a pallet.
3. Avoid nesting cones without separators. Fill voids, add corner reinforcements, and mark orientation (e.g., mouth-up). Use double‑wall cartons for boxes and install cross-bracing in crates.
4. On the BOL, write the full item name, packaging type (box or crate), NMFC 100020, and the chosen class. Include accurate piece count, weight, and dimensions for capacity planning and rating.

Note: All classifications are subject to Item 170. Verify with official NMFC publications for the most current requirements.

• Reduced reclass fees by clearly stating “non‑electric” horns and matching the exact NMFC sub within the 100–200 class range.
• Lower claim risk and fewer service disruptions by reinforcing the fragile flare and throat, especially on long, lightweight cone shapes.
• Optimized LTL rates by choosing the correct boxed versus crated option and documenting packaging details carriers use to stow freight efficiently.
• Simpler compliance and faster tendering since the item is non‑hazardous, avoiding hazmat surcharges and special paperwork.
