NMFC 35840 - Metal Siding Corner Covers | Class 70

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Nest metal corner covers tightly and box them with corrugated separators and edge guards to prevent abrasion on finished faces.
2. Palletize long, narrow boxes flat with no overhang; strap in two directions and add a “Do Not Bend” label to protect the L‑profile.
3. Cap both ends of each box to shield sharp metal edges, then shrink-wrap the unitized pallet to minimize shifting during LTL handling.
4. Print NMFC 35840 and Class 70 on the BOL; note “Non-hazardous building metalwork” to speed carrier acceptance and reduce reclassification risk.

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

• Predictable pricing: fixed Class 70 means no density calculations and faster, cleaner quotes.
• Space savings from nesting reduces pallet count and handling touches, lowering total LTL spend for contractor supply runs.
• Boxed, protected metalwork cuts damage claims and jobsite delays, improving delivered quality and schedule reliability.
• Simple compliance within the Building Metalwork Group streamlines routing guides and consolidations with other trim components.
