How to Determine Your Class
To find the correct freight class for your shipment:
- Confirm the item matches NMFC 124095 and review Note item 124096; list brand, model, and power type on the BOL to avoid scope questions.
- Choose packaging by size: crate and brace assembled floor units; box smaller tabletop ironers and secure them to a skid to prevent tip-over.
- Pad heated rollers and control panels, remove loose guards or trays, bag cord sets, and use edge protection on strap points to prevent crush damage.
- Use the fixed class range 92.5–100 for this item (not density-based). Print NMFC 124095, packaging type (box/crate/package), and “Non-hazardous” on the BOL along with any liftgate or appointment needs.
Note: All classifications are subject to Item 170. Verify with official NMFC publications for the most current requirements.
Business Value
- Predictable LTL pricing from a fixed class range reduces reclass disputes and surprise invoices.
- Proper crating and blocking protect rollers and electronics, cutting claims and preventing downtime for laundries, hotels, and textile operations.
- Accurate NMFC coding speeds carrier acceptance and routing, improving tender success for pickups that need liftgates or limited-access delivery.
- Clear documentation and correct packaging lower inspection risk, helping avoid reweigh/reclass fees and keeping total landed cost in check.
