NMFC 108815 - Swimming Pool Ladders Boxed | Class N/A

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Pack the entire ladder in a closed box: cap rail ends, pad curved tubes, and secure treads to prevent rub-through. Include the hardware kit bag inside the carton.
2. For long cartons (e.g., 72–84 in), strap the boxed ladder to a skid or use corner runners to avoid additional handling fees; measure length precisely for carrier rules.
3. List materials on the BOL—stainless steel, aluminum, or resin—and reference NMFC 108815; add package photos to support claims and vendor compliance.
4. Keep cartons dry and intact; stretch-wrap if staging outdoors. Avoid tight strapping over tread areas to prevent cracking or impressions.

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