NMFC 199950 - Pyrography Wood Panels | Class 85

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Pack panels flat in rigid, double‑wall corrugated boxes with interleaf sheets and corner protectors; add edge boards if panels are thin to prevent warping.
2. Palletize boxed panels to a 48x40 in footprint with no overhang; use a top cap and two bands plus stretch wrap for stability during cross-dock transfers.
3. Label cartons clearly: “Wood Panels—Pyrography, Not Burnt.” Include NMFC 199950 and Class 85 on the BOL, and mark as non-hazardous to avoid unnecessary holds.
4. Share precise counts and weights per box with the carrier—e.g., 12 panels per box, 18x24x0.25 in, 22 lb—to speed quotes and prevent reweigh or inspection delays.

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

• Fixed Class 85 removes density math, streamlining quoting and reducing reclass disputes for predictable LTL costs.
• Non-hazardous commodity broadens carrier selection, encouraging competitive rates and faster tender acceptance.
• Boxed presentation with reinforced edges lowers damage claims, protecting margins and vendor scorecard performance.
• Consistent packaging enables easy consolidation for craft retailers, makerspaces, and school programs, cutting per-panel shipping expense.
