| 168805.00 | Razor Strops or Stroppers, in boxes | 125 |
How to Determine Your Class
To find the correct freight class for your shipment:
- Declare the commodity as razor strops/stroppers and list NMFC 168805, Class 125 on the BOL to avoid reclass and billing delays.
- Pack strops flat inside rigid boxes; wrap leather faces, pad any metal clips or handles, and fill voids so the strops do not flex or crease.
- For multi-carton moves, keep cartons square on a 48x40 pallet with no overhang; strap, stretch-wrap, and mark Do Not Bend on outer faces.
- If shipping kits, separate razors or liquids into different cartons; this listing specifically covers the strops themselves in boxes.
Note: All classifications are subject to Item 170. Verify with official NMFC publications for the most current requirements.
Business Value
- Fixed Class 125 eliminates density math, speeding quotes and reducing the chance of reclass fees.
- Item-specific NMFC coverage for boxed strops keeps rates consistent across carriers and lanes.
- Protective boxing lowers damage risk to leather surfaces, reducing claims and safeguarding margins.
- Accurate paperwork with NMFC 168805 shortens audits and helps avoid surprise accessorials.
