How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. List NMFC 182410 and Class 65 on the BOL, specify packaging as boxes, and note contents (tile, mirrors, glass). Add “Fragile” and “This Side Up” labels.
  2. Use double‑wall boxes with foam corner guards, rigid backers for mirrors, and interleave sheets between glass surfaces. Keep at least 2 inches of edge and face cushioning.
  3. Palletize upright with no overhang. Strap and stretch‑wrap tightly, add edge boards, and use a top cap or cones if you need a no‑stack instruction.
  4. Reduce handling shocks with tilt/shock indicators and choose carriers with strong fragile‑goods performance. Request liftgate, residential, or inside delivery as needed.

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

Business Value

  • Predictable pricing: fixed Class 65 means no density calculation, reducing reclass risk and surprise adjustments.
  • Fewer claims and breakage when boxed and braced correctly, lowering total landed cost and improving customer satisfaction.
  • Operational simplicity: one classification covers boxed tile, mirrors, and glass, enabling mixed-SKU consolidation on the same LTL.
  • Non-hazmat status broadens carrier options and accelerates booking for time-sensitive construction and renovation projects.
