NMFC 27940 - Parking/Police/Island/Toll Guards | Class N/A

Note 27942: NOTE-Also applies when booths are equipped with lighting fixtures, heaters or electrical wiring.

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Verify applicability against Note, item 27942 and select the sub-item that matches use case (parking lot, police, service station island, or toll).
2. Capture true footprint: include roof overhangs, base channels, conduit stubs, and fork pockets; list gross weight with skid/crate included.
3. Choose protective packaging: bolt the booth to a heavy pallet or steel skid, add blocking and corner guards, brace glazing and doors, then shrink-wrap.
4. Plan handling and routing: confirm lift points or forklift access, request flatbed with tarps for oversize heights, or dry van if it fits; add liftgate or crane service as needed.

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

• Correct classification per Note 27942 helps prevent reclass fees and billing disputes, keeping projects on schedule.
• Crated or skidded prep reduces panel and glass damage, cutting claims and replacement costs for kiosks and booths.
• Right mode choice (dry van vs flatbed) balances protection and price, lowering total freight spend and accessorials.
• Clear labeling and site-ready packaging speed installation at lots, toll plazas, campuses, and stations, compressing downtime.
