NMFC 106320 - Iron Posts (NOI) | Class 65

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Bundle iron posts tightly with edge protectors and V-boards; use steel or polyester strapping and cap sharp or threaded ends to prevent punctures and abrasion.
2. Stage longer posts on skids or a cradle so forklifts can lift cleanly; add blocking and bracing to stop rolling and keep bundles from shifting in-transit.
3. Print on the BOL: "Iron Posts, NOI - NMFC 106320, Class 65, Nonhazardous" to avoid reclass disputes; density entry is not required for this item.
4. Record piece count and maximum length on the shipment; flag overlength items at tender to prevent unexpected accessorials and to speed carrier planning.

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

• Fixed Class 65 simplifies quoting and auditing, reducing reclass and rebill risk for dense steel freight.
• Clear labeling of NMFC 106320 on paperwork accelerates dock processing and lowers administrative delays.
• Proper bundling and end protection cut claim exposure, keeping delivered cost per post predictable.
• Nonhazardous status avoids hazmat surcharges and streamlines carrier selection for multi-stop LTL moves.
