How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. List NMFC 147280 and Class 0 on the BOL, then note total sets and piece counts per pallet to prevent reweigh or reclass disputes.
  2. Use wardrobe cartons or rolling racks for items that must stay on hangers; cushion embellished pieces in corrugated boxes with tissue or foam sheets.
  3. Pack headpieces, belts, or delicate trims separately, and add moisture barriers if routing through humid venues or long storage holds.
  4. Secure loads by stretch-wrapping racks, strapping cartons to pallets, and labeling by act/size for fast check-in at arenas or big tops.

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

Business Value

  • Fixed Class 0 rating delivers predictable quotes and minimizes costly reclassification charges.
  • Non-hazardous apparel broadens carrier options and avoids hazmat fees and extra paperwork.
  • Simple, non-density classification speeds BOL prep and reduces time spent on W&I disputes.
  • Purposeful packing (wardrobe cartons, separated delicate pieces) curbs damage and replacement costs for specialty costumes.
