NMFC Description Class

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. List “Poles, wooden, NOI — NMFC 113060, Class 50” on the BOL to prevent reclass and speed dock handling.
  2. Capture the longest piece length and note it for the carrier; book appropriate equipment (dry van for standard lengths, flatbed for extended runs).
  3. Unitize by uniform length with wood dunnage and two or more bands per bundle; tag each bundle with count and length for quick checks.
  4. Load from the side using wide forks or from above with a spreader bar; add edge protectors and block the round stock to prevent rolling.

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

Business Value

  • Fixed Class 50 delivers predictable LTL rating, helping control costs versus variable density items.
  • Accurate NMFC 113060 on paperwork reduces reclass fees, disputes, and billing delays.
  • Standardized bundles and declared lengths cut accessorials for overlength and special handling, and reduce dock time.
  • Mode flexibility: combine LTL for small bundles or consolidate to truckload for projects to lower cost per pole.
