Classification Details

NMFC Description Class
182750.00 Tile or Molding, magnesite composition, in boxes, crates or metal-strapped bundles, see Note, item 182602 70

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Declare NMFC 182750, Class 70 on the BOL and specify packaging (boxes or crates). Density is not required for this item.
  2. For tiles: use rigid boxes or wood crates with interleaving sheets, full edge protection, and void fill. Mark “Do Not Stack” unless a load-bearing cap is used.
  3. For molding lengths: crate items to the full length with end-blocking, center supports, and edge protectors under straps. Use metal strapping with cushion pads to prevent abrasion.
  4. Palletize multiple boxes/crates to a single footprint and stretch wrap tightly. Confirm accessorials for jobsite delivery (liftgate, appointment) and review Note, item 182602 for bundling allowances.

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

Business Value

  • Predictable pricing with a fixed Class 70 reduces reclass fees and speeds up quoting for contractors and distributors.
  • Crate-first strategy minimizes breakage on brittle magnesite edges, cutting claims and replacement costs on project schedules.
  • Clear packaging options (boxes, crates, metal-strapped bundles) streamline LTL planning and reduce handling touches.
  • Accurate NMFC usage (182750) improves carrier compliance, helping avoid inspections, delays, and unexpected accessorial charges.
