NMFC 20350: Plastic Baby Carriers | Class 150–200

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Confirm the exact subclass on your BOL: note if the carrier has no supporting standard or has a wire supporting standard folded to the body. This distinction drives whether it rates at Class 150 or 200.
2. Box each unit securely. Cushion soft pads so they don’t crush, add corner protection, and avoid bag-only packing—this item’s NMFC applies to boxed shipments.
3. Palletize for gentle handling: keep cartons upright, use a top cap and light stretch wrap, and avoid over-strapping that could deform wire supports. Mark Do Not Crush on outer cartons.
4. Document clearly for fast quotes: list NMFC 20350, item description (plastic baby carrier with pad/cushion), piece count, and non-hazardous status. Since class isn’t density-based, dimensions are for capacity planning, not rating.

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

• Predictable rating without density rules simplifies quoting and budgeting for baby gear shippers.
• Accurate subclass selection (wire folded vs. no standard) prevents reclass and inspection fees, protecting margins.
• Boxed packaging aligns with LTL best practices, reducing damage claims on padded consumer goods and improving customer experience.
• Non-hazardous status broadens carrier options and speeds tendering for retailers, distributors, and eCommerce fulfillment.
