How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. List NMFC 119120 and Class 100 on the BOL for adjustable or computing cheese cutters that are shipped in boxes; note piece count and any palletization.
  2. Immobilize cutting wires/blades and lock thickness adjustments; for computing models, cushion the scale/display and power components with dense foam in a double‑wall box.
  3. Keep each unit in its own box with accessories bagged and taped inside; mark This Side Up and Do Not Crush to protect sensitive mechanisms.
  4. If heavy, place the boxed unit on a pallet and stretch‑wrap; provide weight and box dimensions for quoting even though class is fixed. Photograph packaging before tendering.

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 eliminates density calculations and speeds LTL quotes.
  • Lower reclass risk when boxed per rule—cleaner audits and fewer surprise adjustments.
  • One code for adjustable and computing variants simplifies programs for delis, dairies, and grocers across multiple lanes.
  • Non-hazardous status broadens carrier options and reduces compliance overhead for faster pickups.
