How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Print the BOL to read: “NMFC 190280 – Half Tracks, Army – Class 100 – Non-Haz,” so carriers rate it correctly without density.
  2. Box all loose gear (tools, optics, ramps) and secure the boxes inside the vehicle; lock or tether mounted guns and confirm no ammo ships with the unit.
  3. Prep the vehicle per carrier policy: drain or reduce fuel, disconnect batteries, cap lines, and verify any add-ons are within overall dimensions.
  4. Plan loading like heavy equipment: use ramps or a winch, chock tracks, chain to rated tie-downs, and protect decks with dunnage to prevent track damage.

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

Business Value

  • Fixed Class 100 eliminates density calculations, reducing reclass disputes and surprise rebills.
  • Non-hazardous status broadens carrier options and avoids hazmat surcharges for faster tendering.
  • Allows boxed accessories to ship inside the vehicle, cutting extra handling lines and accessory shipments.
  • Consistent rating for surplus, museum, or training units streamlines multi-stop projects and bid pricing.
