NMFC Description Class
101660.00 Incense, in boxes 100

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. List NMFC 101660 and “Incense, in boxes” on the BOL so carriers rate it at Class 100 without density details.
  2. Use rigid corrugated cartons with inner wraps or trays to protect brittle sticks/cones; add a poly liner to control odor and moisture.
  3. Palletize tight: no overhang, use corner protectors, and stretch-wrap; keep incense away from liquids or strong-scent freight to avoid cross-contamination.
  4. Plan for heat and crush risk—set stack height by box strength (ECT 32/44 as applicable) and avoid hot trailers on summer lanes when possible.

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

Business Value

  • Predictable pricing: fixed Class 100 eliminates density disputes and reclass fees.
  • Lower claims through odor/moisture control and crush-resistant packaging, reducing reships and customer returns.
  • Faster quoting and tendering since data needs are minimal—ideal for LTL drops to retailers or fulfillment centers.
  • Inventory-friendly: standardized boxed packs palletize cleanly, enabling better cube use and steadier freight rates.
