NMFC 191290 - Steel Dumping Tractor | Class 100

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. List NMFC 191290 and Class 100 on the BOL, and describe the item as a steel dumping tractor—note whether it includes the dumping device and if it ships loose or packaged.
2. For loose shipments, secure the tractor to a heavy skid: block and brace, chock wheels, and chain through designated frame points. Pad sharp edges and latch the dump bed.
3. For packaged moves, band the unit to a reinforced pallet or enclose in a crate with forklift clearance. Protect controls and hinges, and cap any exposed fittings on the dumping mechanism.
4. Provide accurate overall dimensions and weight for handling, request liftgate or forklift as needed, and confirm non-hazmat status to streamline carrier selection and pickup.

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

• Fixed Class 100 delivers predictable LTL quotes and reduces reclass and surprise charges.
• Flexible “loose or in packages” handling shortens prep time for dealers, auction houses, and fleet shops.
• Non-hazardous classification widens carrier options and cuts documentation overhead.
• Clear NMFC mapping speeds inspections and claims resolution, improving on-time performance and cost control.
