NMFC 162870 - Psyllium (Flea) Seed Hulls | Class 85-100

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Verify whether your shipment fits the NMFC 162870 subclass at 85 or 100 for psyllium seed hulls in boxes, and list it clearly on the BOL.
2. Use lined, sift-proof cartons: poly bag inside, double-wall boxes, taped seams, and lot labels marked "Keep Dry" and "Food Ingredient."
3. Palletize tightly: column-stack cartons, add a top cap, corner boards, and stretch wrap to control dust and prevent carton crush during LTL handling.
4. Request odor-free, dry vans; avoid loading near spices or chemicals, and note carton count and net weight to speed carrier inspections.

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

• Predictable pricing from a fixed class range (85-100) reduces reclass and surprise charges.
• Non-hazardous status broadens carrier options and enables faster tendering in food and nutraceutical lanes.
• Boxed, sift-proof packing cuts spill clean-up fees and claim exposure for light, fluffy hulls.
• Clear paperwork and labeling improve audit trails for dietary fiber suppliers and contract manufacturers.
