NMFC Description Class
114145.00 Air Humidifiers, NOI, with blowers or fans:

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Empty and air-dry reservoirs and lines 24 hours before pickup; cap fill ports and bag removable tanks to prevent leaks during transit.
  2. Protect the fan assembly and control panel with foam or corner blocks; use double-wall cartons for consumer units and wood crating for heavier console models.
  3. Palletize upright with slip sheets, corner boards, and stretch wrap; strap to a 48x40 pallet and mark “This Side Up” and “Do Not Stack.”
  4. List NMFC 114145 on the BOL and note packaging (boxed, crated, or palletized) plus materials (plastic housing/metal frame) for quick carrier verification.

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

  • Speed cross-dock handling with upright, labeled pallets that minimize mishandling and reduce detention risk.
