Classification Details

NMFC Description Class
148580.00 Packing or Stuffing, animal hoof, in boxes, drums or pails 65

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Use sturdy corrugated boxes sized to prevent movement; add a poly liner or bag to contain residue and odor from hoof packing compounds, then seal with 2-inch tape.
  2. Print the BOL with NMFC 148580 and Class 65, marked Non-Hazardous. Skip density since this item has a fixed class under the NMFC entry.
  3. Unitize multiple boxes on a pallet with stretch wrap and two straps; keep loads away from heat that can soften resin- or wax-based hoof packing.
  4. If you typically ship in pails or drums, note the NMFC description allows them, but this listing is configured for boxes—confirm carrier acceptance before tendering.

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

Business Value

  • Fixed Class 65 rating delivers predictable LTL pricing and fewer surprise reclasses.
  • Non-hazardous status avoids hazmat surcharges and simplifies carrier onboarding.
  • Clear packaging guidance reduces leakage, odor complaints, and OS&D claims, protecting margins.
  • Consistent BOL notation (NMFC 148580, Class 65) speeds quoting and minimizes billing disputes.
