NMFC 108040 - Cement Patching Kits | Class 60

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. List NMFC 108040 and Class 60 on the BOL to prevent reclass fees and speed carrier processing.
2. Keep boxes dry and upright; shrink wrap and top-sheet to protect the cement compound from moisture during transit.
3. Palletize evenly and use corner boards; the metal trowel and edger can create pressure points if boxes are crushed.
4. Verify inner containers are sealed and cushioned so tools don’t rub through the carton; avoid stacking beneath heavier freight.

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

• Fixed Class 60 means predictable LTL pricing with no density calculations, simplifying quotes and budgets.
• Non-hazardous status avoids hazmat surcharges and streamlines paperwork, accelerating pickup and acceptance.
• Inner containers and sturdy boxed packaging reduce damage risk, lowering claims for hardware and construction supply shippers.
• Accurate NMFC coding (108040) protects margins by preventing reclass penalties and keeps multi-stop distribution efficient.
