Classification Details
| NMFC | Description | Class |
|---|---|---|
| 116190.00 | Registers, autographic sales, in boxes | 100 |
How to Determine Your Class
To find the correct freight class for your shipment:
- Box each register in a rigid, double-wall carton with dense foam blocking. Lock levers, secure drawers, remove paper rolls, and bag small parts like keys and brackets.
- Write the exact line on the BOL: “NMFC 116190, Autographic Sales Registers, Class 100, Boxed.” No density needed—just count, weight, and clear item description.
- For multiple boxed units, place upright on a pallet, then band and stretch-wrap. Keep the heavy base down to protect print wheels and glass windows.
- Use corner protection and ‘This Side Up’ labels to reduce impact on platen and print mechanisms. Photograph condition before handoff for claim-ready documentation.
Note: All classifications are subject to Item 170. Verify with official NMFC publications for the most current requirements.
Business Value
- Predictable pricing: Fixed Class 100 removes density math and cuts reclass risk, helping stabilize LTL quotes.
- Faster tendering: Non-hazardous status and box packaging streamline carrier acceptance and reduce paperwork.
- Lower damage costs: Proper boxing and immobilized mechanisms protect delicate print assemblies, reducing claim exposure.
- Reliable planning for repairs/resale: Consistent classification supports steady freight budgeting for retailers and refurbishers.
