NMFC 114760 - Seed & Grain Power Mills | Class 100–150

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Match packaging to the build: crate floor-standing warehouse mills, box compact bench units, and ship oversized hoppers loose on a skidded base with banding.
2. Secure components before pickup—lock rotors, brace shafts, cap inlets/outlets, and bag small accessories like screens and sieves inside the main crate.
3. Bolt the base to hardwood skids and mark lift points and center of gravity to guide forklifts and prevent tipping during LTL handling.
4. Confirm the final class within the 100–150 range based on packaging and item condition, and note any attached motors or conveyors on the BOL.

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

• Correctly selecting the class within 100–150 helps avoid reclass fees and inspection delays, keeping quotes accurate.
• Purpose-built crating reduces shock and moisture exposure, cutting claim risk for precision gearboxes and motors.
• Consolidating hoppers, guards, and spares with the main unit lowers handling units and can streamline accessorial charges.
• Non-hazardous machinery simplifies carrier acceptance and appointment scheduling, accelerating transit and dock turns.
