How to Determine Your Class
To find the correct freight class for your shipment:
- Nest pans to cut cube, add corrugated slip sheets between layers, then band to a 40x48 pallet and wrap; note NMFC 125520 and piece count on the BOL.
- For metal pans, use edge guards and corner protectors to prevent cuts and bending; for HDPE pans, avoid top-stacking heavy freight to prevent cracking.
- Match packaging to size: small pans in double‑wall cartons with dividers; oversized settler pans bundled, stretch‑wrapped, and plastic‑strapped to skids.
- Ship only clean, residue‑free pans; if previously used, certify they’re cleaned and dry to avoid carrier refusals and accessorial delays.
Note: All classifications are subject to Item 170. Verify with official NMFC publications for the most current requirements.
Business Value
- Fixed Class 92.5 simplifies quoting and reduces re‑class disputes—no density calculation required.
- Nesting and tight unitization lower billable cube, improving LTL base rates and minimizing dimensional charges.
- Non‑hazardous status streamlines tendering and hub handling, helping shorten dwell time and speed delivery.
- Damage‑smart packaging cuts claims on thin‑gauge steel or molded plastic pans, protecting margins and customer satisfaction.
