How to Determine Your Class
To find the correct freight class for your shipment:
- Package each door as a flat panel in a rigid box or crate; add edge protectors and internal bracing so hinges, latches, and hardware cannot shift.
- If the door includes glass, pad both sides with foam or corrugated, cover windows with a hard shield, and mark Do Not Stack with orientation arrows.
- List on the BOL: NMFC 191680, vehicle doors—panels or sections, not curved—boxed/crated, Class 100. Include count, door type (folding, sliding, or hinged), and handling notes.
- Build a forkliftable base or skid under crates for safe pickup; band or strap the crate to the skid if carrier requires it, keeping the inner pack as a box or crate.
Note: All classifications are subject to Item 170. Verify with official NMFC publications for the most current requirements.
Business Value
- Predictable pricing with fixed Class 100, eliminating density disputes and reclass fees.
- Standardized box/crate packaging lowers OS&D risk and reduces damage-related claims for high-value doors.
- One item covers steel, aluminum, or composite bus/truck/trailer doors—simplifies cataloging and quoting.
- Faster tendering and fewer accessorial surprises as carriers recognize the vehicle parts classification.
