How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. State the full description on the BOL: “Rings, locking, washing or drying machine, iron or steel, in packages — NMFC 124215, Class 70.” Include count and weight.
  2. Pack rings in sturdy cartons with inner bags or dividers to prevent metal-on-metal abrasion; add VCI wrap for corrosion protection if storage or humid routes are expected.
  3. Palletize small cartons, keep everything within the pallet footprint, and use banding or stretch wrap so no loose parts travel outside of packages.
  4. Avoid loose bulk. This item rates at Class 70 specifically when shipped in packages, so box or crate every piece before tendering LTL.

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

Business Value

  • Predictable rating: Fixed Class 70 means consistent quoting and fewer reclass fees for washer/dryer service parts.
  • Lower damage risk: Properly packaged small metal rings reduce claims and avoid costly service delays for appliance repair programs.
  • Inventory-friendly: Cartonized, labeled packs make fast receiving and binning at distribution centers and laundromat chains.
  • Non-haz status speeds tendering and broadens carrier options, helping secure better LTL capacity and competitive rates.
