How to Determine Your Class
To find the correct freight class for your shipment:
- Confirm the item is set up (SU) and boxed; use manufacturer cartons or double-wall boxes with molded foam corners and face protection to prevent panel flex.
- Palletize boxes upright with no overhang, add corner boards, and stretch-wrap tightly; apply tilt/shock indicators plus “Do Not Stack” and “This Side Up” labels.
- On the BOL, list: NMFC 39775, “Screens, television projection, SU, in boxes,” Class 300; skip density fields, and include declared value and handling notes.
- Select carriers experienced with electronics/optics freight; avoid cross-dock heavy lanes when possible and schedule delivery appointments for retail or residential drops.
Note: All classifications are subject to Item 170. Verify with official NMFC publications for the most current requirements.
Business Value
- Fixed Class 300 means fast, predictable quotes with no density math—cleaner TMS rating and fewer reweigh/reclass disputes.
- Non-hazardous status broadens carrier choice and eliminates hazmat surcharges or documentation, streamlining compliance.
- Optics-sensitive handling under the Camera Group plus proper boxing/palletizing lowers damage risk, claim costs, and downtime.
- A single, specific NMFC listing reduces audit friction, prevents inspection delays, and helps keep accessorial exposure in check.
