NMFC 176565 - Wallpaper Sizing/Paste Jelly | Class 60

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. List the commodity as “wallpaper sizing or paste additive, jelly form, containers in boxes” on the BOL and select Class 60; no density input needed.
2. Use leak-resistant primary containers with tight lids, then place each in a poly bag and cushion inside double-wall cartons to prevent seepage and crush.
3. Palletize upright with orientation arrows; avoid overhang, add corner boards, and stretch-wrap top to bottom to restrain jelly-filled containers from shifting.
4. Protect from temperature extremes—avoid freezing and high heat—to preserve viscosity and prevent container deformation during transit and storage.

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

• Predictable rating: Fixed Class 60 simplifies quoting and prevents reclass fees tied to density disputes.
• Non-hazardous status streamlines documentation and typically reduces accessorial exposure and carrier restrictions.
• Durable box-and-container packing lowers leak and damage claims, protecting margins and brand reputation.
• Standard cartonized units cube efficiently on pallets, improving trailer utilization and lowering LTL cost per shipment.
