NMFC 115800 - Bookkeeping Machines, boxed | Class 100

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Confirm the item truly fits NOI: bookkeeping machines and their parts not otherwise listed. Box the unit or components first, then palletize the carton if needed for safer LTL handling.
2. Stabilize delicate mechanisms. Remove paper rolls, lock moving carriages, bag loose fasteners, and use anti-static bags for circuit boards. Heavy items (40–70 lb) do best in double-wall cartons with dense foam blocking.
3. Mark orientation and sensitivity. Use “This Side Up” and “Sensitive Instrument” labels, and print NMFC 115800, Class 100 on the BOL to prevent reclass and speed terminal processing.
4. Provide dimensions and weight for quotes even though class is fixed. Keep cartons compact to avoid cubic-related charges; band boxed units to a pallet with corner boards if stacking risk is high.

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

• Predictable pricing: fixed Class 100 eliminates density calculations, streamlining rating and preventing surprise reclass fees.
• Lower claim risk through compliant boxed packaging, aligning with NMFC expectations for office machinery and protecting delicate internals.
• Faster operations for refurbishers, service depots, and accounting departments—standardized boxing makes repeat shipments simple and scalable.
• Broader carrier acceptance and fewer accessorials versus awkward, unboxed equipment, improving transit options and freight spend.
