How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Reference NMFC 115960 and Class 100 on the BOL to lock the fixed class and prevent density reclass disputes.
  2. Pack each machine in a rigid, double-wall box with foam-in-place or dense PE inserts to immobilize motors, feed rollers, and stamp heads.
  3. Secure moving parts: lock feeders, tape doors and trays, bag loose hardware, and coil power cords; label with Up arrows and fragile machinery notes.
  4. Palletize the boxed unit when weight or size warrants; strap and stretch-wrap the carton to the pallet to avoid crushing and simplify LTL handling.

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

Business Value

  • Predictable pricing with a fixed Class 100 rating—no density math, fewer billing adjustments.
  • Non-hazardous status streamlines carrier acceptance and reduces accessorial risks tied to special handling.
  • Standard boxed packaging speeds quotes and tendering, helping mailrooms and print shops plan pickups confidently.
  • Consistent NMFC across multiple units simplifies billing, claims, and rate negotiations for repeat shipments.
