NMFC 115110 - Glass Bottle Crushers | Class 70-300

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Choose the packaging that fits your risk and budget: crated or packaged units typically rate lower than loose machinery, which often falls at the higher end of 70-300.
2. Prep the crusher for transport: remove any glass residue, lock or brace moving parts, pad cutting surfaces, cap inlets/outlets, protect the control panel, and drain hydraulic or coolant lines if present.
3. Build a shipment-friendly base: bolt the frame to a skid with lag screws and steel banding, provide 4-way fork access, block for center of gravity, add corner boards and stretch-wrap, and mark Heavy/This Side Up/Do Not Stack.
4. Document clearly: list NMFC 115110 and the exact packaging (loose, packaged, or crated) on the BOL, include piece count, weight and dims, serial number, lift points diagram, and pre-shipment photos.

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

• Lower freight spend by selecting crating or robust packaging that can push the rating toward the lower end of the 70-300 range.
• Reduce damage claims through immobilization and edge protection, safeguarding motors, hoppers, and control enclosures to avoid costly downtime.
• Avoid reclass fees and delays with precise NMFC coding and packaging descriptions, speeding up quotes and carrier acceptance.
• Expand carrier options: non-hazardous machinery is widely accepted in standard LTL networks, improving capacity and transit flexibility.
