Classification Details

NMFC Description Class

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Confirm the correct sub-item: full seed cleaner vs separate boll/sand reels or screens, then choose the applicable class within 92.5–125 for packaged freight.
  2. Package on a pallet or in a wood crate; cap screen edges with plywood, block reels to stop rolling, and band frames to the skid with corner boards.
  3. Record exact piece count, dimensions, and weight on the BOL; mark center of gravity and add “Do Not Stack” if screens or frames could deform under load.
  4. For repairs or parts returns, consider shipping reels or screens separately when practical and request quotes for each applicable class to compare LTL rates.

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

Business Value

  • Accurate class selection minimizes reclass fees and protects margins on seasonal ag-processing shipments.
  • Purposeful crating for delicate screens and reels reduces transit damage, lowering claims and downtime.
  • Non-hazardous status streamlines booking and avoids hazmat-related accessorials or carrier restrictions.
  • Right-sized packages and palletization improve trailer cube efficiency, often unlocking better LTL pricing.
