NMFC 155030 - Grain, Poisoned in Bags | Class 77.5

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Declare the shipment as hazardous on the BOL using the proper shipping name and details from the supplier's SDS, plus a 24-hour emergency contact.
2. Use sturdy, sift-proof corrugated boxes with sealed liners to contain fines and odors. Tape seams, add absorbent pads, and keep units upright.
3. Palletize tightly and stretch-wrap; add Poison and Keep From Food labels. Separate from edible goods, seed, and feed to avoid cross-contamination.
4. Confirm your LTL carrier accepts hazardous materials and this commodity. Arrange attended pickup; do not leave hazmat unattended at docks.

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