NMFC 108000 - Aquarium Supply Kits in Boxes | Class 70

Note 108002: NOTE-Applies on kits consisting of aquarium heater, filter carbon, filter floss, air pump, gravel, fish food and instruction booklet.

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. List the item as “Aquarium Supply Kits, boxed – NMFC 108000, Class 70” on the BOL so carriers align rating with Note item 108002.
2. Pack tubing, filter media, fittings, and small hardware in inner cartons or poly bags to prevent parts migration; fill voids with kraft or foam.
3. If multiple retail kits ship together, master-pack into a single corrugated shipper and palletize with stretch wrap and cornerboards for stable LTL moves.
4. Exclude liquids, chemicals, or batteries from these kits unless declared separately; this listing applies to non-hazardous, boxed components.

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

• Predictable pricing from a fixed Class 70 reduces reclass charges and quote uncertainty for aquarium kit SKUs.
• Boxed packaging streamlines cross-dock handling, lowering damage risk on pumps, tubing, and accessory assortments.
• Non-hazardous status speeds carrier acceptance and reduces accessorial delays, improving fulfillment SLAs for pet and aquatics retailers.
• Clear reference to Note item 108002 minimizes disputes with carriers and keeps audit trails clean for freight bill auditing.
