NMFC 39620 - Cameras & Camcorders in Boxes | Class 125

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Select NMFC item 39620 with packaging marked as boxes or packages to rate at Class 125 for retail-boxed cameras and camcorders.
2. Keep units in their retail cartons; if master-cartoning, use sturdy double-wall outer boxes, fill all voids, and immobilize lenses and viewfinders.
3. Palletize carefully: no overhang, use edge protectors, strap and stretch-wrap, and apply up arrows and fragile labels to prevent top-load damage.
4. Document serial numbers and take pre-ship photos; for e‑commerce or rental returns, add shock or tip indicators to deter mishandling in LTL networks.

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

• Single-class item at Class 125 reduces reclass disputes and speeds quoting across carriers.
• Non-hazardous designation streamlines tendering and avoids hazmat surcharges or paperwork.
• Accurate use of item 39620 for retail-boxed imaging gear improves carrier acceptance and lowers damage-claim exposure.
• Proper box or package selection and pallet strategy cuts concealed damage, protecting margins on high-value cameras and camcorders.
