NMFC 195270 - Oilcloth Scrap for Rag Reclaim | Class 60

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Package offcuts and trimmings in sturdy cartons or compressed, banded bales; line containers to prevent oil transfer and label “Oilcloth Scrap—For Rag Reclamation.”
2. Keep scrap dry and clean; do not mix with solvent-soaked rags, adhesives, or metal hardware that can trigger reclass or disposal issues.
3. List NMFC 195270, Class 60, non-hazardous on the BOL with accurate piece count and weight; add notes like “packaged oilcloth scrap, reclaim only.”
4. Palletize multiple packages with no overhang and use stretch wrap or corner guards to avoid snagging coated fabric edges during LTL handling.

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

• Predictable Class 60 rating helps control LTL quotes for reclaim-bound textile waste streams.
• Non-hazardous status avoids hazmat surcharges and simplifies carrier acceptance for recyclers and rag processors.
• Density-agnostic classification reduces reweigh/reclass risk, speeding billing and cutting unexpected fees.
• Clear packaging and labeling streamline dock workflows, enabling consolidation from shops like awning, upholstery, or tablecloth producers.
