How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. List NMFC 50625, Class 70 on the BOL and quotes, and describe the item as concrete or cement-filled double-wall plastic sewer pipe or fittings.
  2. If couplings are detached, place them in sealed packages or cartons; when included, secure to the pipe or fitting with strapping and protective wrap.
  3. Palletize fittings and short pipe sections; cap pipe ends, use edge protectors, and avoid overhang. For long bundles, block and brace to prevent ovalizing the plastic shell.
  4. Confirm overall lengths to avoid overlength fees, choose carriers experienced with construction materials, and request non-stackable handling when crush risk exists.

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

Business Value

  • Fixed Class 70 delivers predictable LTL pricing despite the added density from concrete fill.
  • Non-hazardous status broadens carrier options and minimizes compliance friction.
  • Clear packaging rule for detached couplings reduces inspection failures, reclassifications, and rebills.
  • Accurate NMFC usage speeds quoting and planning for municipal and contractor projects, helping control accessorials and damage costs.
