How to Determine Your Class
To find the correct freight class for your shipment:
- Select NMFC 183440 for toilet cases containing toilet or manicure sets that are not plated or trimmed with silver or other precious metals; if precious-metal trim is present, use the noted item 183442.
- Pack each kit in sturdy corrugated boxes with partitions or foam trays; wrap mirrors and tools, secure liquids with seals, and add orientation labels for hospitality amenity sets or retail gift kits.
- Palletize to prevent overhang and crush; even though Class 100 is fixed (no density rule here), capture accurate dimensions to avoid cubic minimum or oversize fees.
- On the BOL, describe as “Toilet cases with toilet or manicure sets, NMFC 183440, Class 100, boxed.” Mark counts and inner pack details to speed inspections and reduce reweighs.
Note: All classifications are subject to Item 170. Verify with official NMFC publications for the most current requirements.
Business Value
- Predictable Class 100 rating streamlines quoting and minimizes reclass disputes since density does not apply to this item.
- Non-hazardous designation avoids hazmat fees and carrier restrictions, accelerating tender and reducing compliance costs.
- Clear scope (excludes silver or precious metal trim) guides product design choices to stay in-spec and protect freight budgets.
- Boxed packaging improves stackability and reduces damage, lowering claims and improving margin on grooming and amenity kits.
