Classification Details

NMFC Description Class

114460.01 Loose or on skids 100
114460.02 In boxes or crates 85

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Select packing by build: crate fully assembled floor models, box smaller countertop units, and only ship loose if banded to a pallet with moving parts secured.
  2. Remove bowls, whisks, and guards; wrap and box these separately to prevent abrasion. Cap electrical leads and protect control panels with rigid corner protectors.
  3. Block and brace heavy bases on skids using lag bolts or steel banding. Add shock indicators for high-speed mixers with delicate gearboxes.
  4. Note the non–density-based rating: dimensions won’t change the class (85–100), but they impact carrier choices and cubic minimum charges—plan pallet footprints accordingly.

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

Business Value

  • Avoid reclass costs by matching packaging to the NMFC options (loose, boxes, crates) tied to the 85–100 class range.
  • Reduce damage claims on precision mixers by crating assemblies and isolating attachments, preserving motor alignment and gear integrity.
  • Quote faster with a fixed class range that isn’t density-driven, improving LTL pricing accuracy and transit planning.
  • Leverage non-hazardous status to consolidate with other bakery equipment, increasing trailer utilization and lowering per-shipment costs.
