NMFC 187240 - Wooden Display Cabinets | Class 100

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. State the full item on the BOL: “Display cabinet, wooden, NOI, boxed/crated — NMFC 187240, Class 100.” Keep the description consistent to avoid reclass.
2. Choose packaging by risk: double‑wall carton with foam and corner blocks for lighter units, or a custom wood crate with internal bracing for heavier store fixtures.
3. Palletize upright. Strap and stretch‑wrap to the pallet, add edge protectors, and mark “This Side Up/Do Not Stack” to prevent crushing of doors and trim.
4. Even though class is fixed, provide actual weight and exterior dimensions for quotes. Request liftgate or inside service when shipping to storefronts or residences.

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

• Fixed Class 100 removes density calculations, producing faster, more predictable LTL rate quotes across carriers.
• Correct boxed or crated packaging reduces in‑transit scuffs, broken corners, and claims—especially on lined or trimmed pieces.
• Non‑hazardous status broadens carrier acceptance and avoids hazmat surcharges and paperwork overhead.
• Accurate NMFC wording on paperwork minimizes inspection delays, reclass fees, and post‑audit billing disputes.
