NMFC 115940 - Envelope Sealing Machines | Class 100–150

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Confirm the unit type: sealing-only or combined seal-and-stamp. Record the exact function on the BOL to pick the correct subclass within Class 100–150.
2. Pack in rigid, double-wall boxes with custom foam or inserts. Immobilize feed rollers, trays, and stamping modules; bag and cap moistener tanks to prevent leaks.
3. Label orientation clearly (This Side Up, Do Not Tilt) and use shock/tilt indicators for precision modules and control panels common in mailroom machines.
4. Include model/serial, NMFC 115940, and chosen class on documents. Provide box dimensions and weight to speed LTL quotes and avoid reclass delays.

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

• Correct subclassing reduces reclass fees and rate disputes—Class 100 vs 150 can swing LTL costs by 20–35% on mailroom equipment.
• Box-only packaging streamlines conveyor handling, cutting damage risk and helping avoid non-conveyable surcharges on odd-shaped machinery.
• Non-hazardous designation removes hazmat paperwork and fees, accelerating tendering and reducing administrative overhead.
• Clear NMFC 115940 usage aligns carriers on the Machinery Group standard, improving claims defensibility and protecting uptime for print-and-mail operations.
