How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Use NMFC 189080 on the BOL for farm carts, horse‑drawn trucks, trailers, or wagons shipped KD, with or without bodies. Mark “KD” and list included components.
  2. Pack frames and body panels flat on skids. Band securely with edge guards on tongues, drawbars, and sideboards; bag loose hardware and label clearly.
  3. Remove wheels/axles when possible to cut cube; crate hubs and brackets separately. Example: stack two wagon frames on a 96x48 pallet with body panels in a strapped crate.
  4. Tender at Class 85—no density needed. Request liftgate, tarp, or rural access when shipping to farms or field locations to avoid delays.

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

Business Value

  • Fixed Class 85 provides predictable LTL pricing and reduces reclass risk from density disputes.
  • KD condition lowers dimensional footprint, improving stackability and cutting total freight spend.
  • Non-hazardous status streamlines carrier acceptance and minimizes compliance-driven accessorials.
  • One code covers carts, wagons, and farm trailers (non-powered), enabling efficient consolidation when descriptions match.
