NMFC 174070 - Shade Roller Fixtures | Class 70

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Pack fixtures in sturdy corrugated boxes with partitions; bag small parts (screws, pins) and fill voids to prevent rattling and abrasion.
2. Print NMFC 174070 and Class 70 on the BOL and carton labels to avoid reclass fees; describe as “Shade Roller Fixtures, in boxes.”
3. Palletize with corner boards and stretch wrap; use plastic banding to avoid crushing thin brackets and keep cartons flush—no overhang.
4. If shipping with fabric rolls or tubes, segregate fixtures on their own pallet and maintain the “boxes” packaging type to match the classification.

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

• Fixed Class 70 rating delivers predictable LTL quotes versus density-based surprises.
• Boxed packaging reduces metal-on-metal damage, cutting claims and reship costs.
• Accurate NMFC on the BOL speeds carrier acceptance and minimizes inspections or reclass.
• Non-hazmat status avoids surcharges and simplifies routing across standard LTL networks.
