How to Determine Your Class
To find the correct freight class for your shipment:
- List on the BOL as “Frames, golf cart, SU, in packages – NMFC 191740 – Class 200” and include piece count and material (steel or aluminum).
- Protect protruding tabs and welds with foam, edge guards, and corrugated wrap; then band to a pallet or place in a rigid crate to prevent racking.
- Measure at the widest bracket or mount point to capture true billable size; flag long pieces and mark center of gravity for safer forklift handling.
- Avoid metal-to-metal abrasion: interleave dunnage between stacked frames and cap open tube ends; add photos of the packed unit to support inspections.
Note: All classifications are subject to Item 170. Verify with official NMFC publications for the most current requirements.
Business Value
- Predictable costs with a fixed Class 200—no density calculation—reducing reclass fees and quote disputes.
- Faster quoting and TMS automation since the NMFC is simple and packaging is predefined as “in packages.”
- Lower damage and OS&D claims by reinforcing high-stress points on frames, improving carrier acceptance and cycle times.
- Consistent descriptions streamline vendor routing compliance and accelerate dock-throughput for dealers, refurbishers, and OEM service centers.
