NMFC Description Class
125240.00 Amalgam Safes, in boxes or crates 92.5

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Select packaging by build: use a heavy double-wall box with foam for benchtop safes with flush hardware, or a custom wood crate with interior blocking for floor models with protruding hinges or boltwork.
  2. Palletize the boxed or crated safe on a 4‑way pallet; center the weight, add edge protectors, and band or stretch‑wrap securely. Mark Do Not Stack if the top panel isn’t load‑bearing.
  3. Immobilize doors and internals: lock or tape the door, remove loose shelves, fill voids, and through‑bolt tall units to the skid. Add tilt and shock indicators to deter rough handling.
  4. Complete the BOL with NMFC 125240, Class 92.5, and Non‑Haz. Request liftgate, delivery appointment, or inside service when shipping to clinics, retail, or sites without a dock.

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

Business Value

  • Fixed Class 92.5 eliminates density calculations, cutting reclass risks and unexpected fees.
  • Boxed or crated requirement aligns with LTL best practices, reducing handling damage and claims.
  • Non‑hazardous designation avoids hazmat paperwork and surcharges, simplifying compliance and training.
  • Single, clear NMFC entry speeds quoting and benchmarking, improving budget accuracy for deployments and multi‑site rollouts.
