NMFC 123110 - Outboard Motor Plastic Shrouds | Class N/A

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Use double‑wall cartons with custom foam or molded inserts to protect the glossy plastic cowling from scuffs and pressure dents.
2. Bag the shroud in a clean poly sleeve, add soft wrap, and cap any sharp mounting points to prevent rub-through during LTL handling.
3. If shipping on a skid, secure the housing upright with corner posts and stretch wrap; add a top sheet and tip‑n‑tell indicators for dock visibility.
4. Mark the BOL with “Outboard Motor Plastic Housing — NMFC 123110,” include dimensions and count, and photograph the packing before tendering.

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

• Purpose‑built packaging prevents cosmetic damage on high-visibility engine covers, lowering claim rates and return costs.
• Standard boxed or skidded prep speeds cross‑dock handling, reducing delays and minimizing accessorial risks from repacking or rewrap.
• Clear NMFC reference on documents curbs reclass disputes, helping stabilize LTL quotes and protect margins during seasonal volume swings.
• Designing for stackability where possible (or clearly noting non‑stackable) helps control freight rates and avoid surprise fees.
