NMFC 188740 - Cars, Roller Coaster | Class 150

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Secure all moving parts before pickup: latch restraints, tie off lap bars, and pad brake fins and guide wheels with edge guards to prevent transit abrasion.
2. Match packaging to mode: custom racks or A-frames for enclosed vans; heavy timber skids with blocking and bracing for flatbeds; add tarps and moisture barriers for outdoor hauls.
3. Lower profile by removing wheel assemblies or decorative shells where permitted; label hardware, document lift points and center of gravity, and use soft slings or spreader bars for loading.
4. Show NMFC 188740 and Class 150 on the BOL; include unit serials and rack IDs to speed check-in at parks, refurb shops, or OEM facilities.

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

• Predictable Class 150 rating streamlines LTL quotes and budgeting for seasonal relocations and off-season refurb moves.
• Non-hazardous status avoids hazmat surcharges and training costs, reducing accessorial exposure when properly crated or racked.
• Purpose-built racks improve cube utilization and curb damage, cutting total cost of risk versus loose-blocked methods.
• Accurate NMFC use minimizes reclass fees and accelerates claims resolution on multi-stop projects and staggered deliveries.
