How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Mark the BOL with NMFC 194260 and Class 70, and describe as “broken composition billiard/bowling balls, boxed.”
  2. Use heavy-duty double‑wall corrugated boxes; line with a poly bag to capture resin dust and chips, and pad with fiberboard to prevent punctures.
  3. Distribute fragments so weight is even; keep each box to safe manual-handling limits (often 50–60 lb) and secure multiple boxes to a pallet.
  4. Remove obvious contaminants (e.g., inserts or hardware) and list piece count and total weight to speed cross‑dock handling and receiving at recyclers.

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

Business Value

  • Predictable pricing with a fixed Class 70—no density calculations, fewer reclass surprises, and faster quotes.
  • Non-hazardous status reduces carrier restrictions and avoids hazmat fees, streamlining LTL tendering.
  • Boxed scrap minimizes spill/cleanup claims and accessorials versus loose material, lowering total landed cost.
  • Clear NMFC alignment under Waste Materials supports recycling programs and sustainability reporting without compliance friction.
