NMFC 36720 - Door/Window Jambs | Class N/A

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Validate material, finish, and lengths to choose protection; wrap galvanized or powder‑coated jambs with foam and edge guards to prevent rub marks.
2. Bundle sticks by opening size; add spacer blocks, cap ends, and band to a pallet so long members don't bow; mark Do Not Stack for lengths over 7 ft.
3. Note longest piece, total count, and orientation on the BOL; request overlength handling for items over 96 in to avoid fees and rehandling.
4. For jobsite drops, specify liftgate or forklift access, and crate custom jambs with attached hardware to keep frames square during transit.

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

• Damage‑resistant bundling protects corners and finishes, reducing OS&D claims and costly rework at the site.
• Correct overlength notation prevents surprise accessorials and improves dock routing, cutting cycle time and freight spend.
• Palletized, labeled packs speed receiving and staging for installers, lowering jobsite labor and laydown costs.
• Non‑hazardous status broadens carrier options and helps secure better LTL rates during peak periods.
