NMFC 183620 – Anvils | Class 60

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. List clearly on the BOL: “Anvils — NMFC 183620, Class 60” to avoid density-based reclass and billing disputes.
2. Palletize with the horn turned inward; block the base, use steel banding, and add edge guards and Do Not Stack cones.
3. For single-piece anvils (often 50–500 lb), confirm forklift access, balance the center of gravity, and request liftgate service if needed.
4. Crate collectible or precision-faced anvils to protect the face, step, and hardy hole through cross-dock transfers.

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

• Fixed Class 60 delivers predictable LTL pricing and minimizes inspection-related reclass fees.
• Non-hazardous designation broadens carrier options and speeds tendering and dispatch.
• Robust palletizing or crating reduces claim risk on horns and faces, preserving resale and operational value.
• Consistent Tools group coding supports contract alignment and steadier budgeting across repeat shipments.
