How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Confirm your parts meet the spec: 12-gauge or thicker steel, shipped in packages. Separate any lighter-gauge items into a different line to avoid misclass.
  2. Palletize tightly: band bundles, use edge protectors, bag small clips and wedges, and add a plywood cap so stacks are flat and forklift-safe.
  3. Note long walers: keep bundle lengths within carrier limits; pieces over 8 ft may trigger additional handling or length fees—label ends and block to prevent shift.
  4. Print the NMFC on the BOL: Fixtures, concrete form retaining/supporting, steel, in packages — NMFC 105210, Class 60. Do not rate by density for this item.

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

Business Value

  • Fixed Class 60 yields predictable LTL pricing, reducing reweigh and reclass penalties on heavy steel hardware.
  • Durable, packaged heavy-gauge steel lowers damage risk and claim costs, keeping pours and schedules on track.
  • Clear NMFC alignment streamlines procurement-to-jobsite shipments and supports contractor or rental yard FAK negotiations.
  • Compact, banded bundles improve cube and stackability, delivering a lower cost per pound versus loose hardware.
