Classification Details

NMFC Description Class
50660.00 Tanks, septic, reinforced concrete:

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. List NMFC 50660 with “Tanks, septic, reinforced concrete” on the BOL, plus piece count, total weight, outside dimensions, and lifting‑eye locations.
  2. Book open‑deck equipment suited to size and weight (53' flatbed or RGN). Specify hardwood blocking or cradles, nylon straps with edge protection, and padded chains only if required.
  3. Coordinate jobsite handling: confirm crane or boom capacity, rigging, and spreader bars; share access details (turn radius, soil bearing) and set firm appointment windows.
  4. Stage on 4x4 dunnage aligned with ribs to prevent chipping; request tarps only if project specs demand clean delivery; verify permits if unit size pushes axle limits.

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

Business Value

  • Accurate NMFC item usage curbs reclass bills and saves administrative time.
  • Right equipment and load plan reduce edge spalling and cracks, lowering claim exposure and replacement costs.
  • Clear pickup/delivery choreography trims crane standby and carrier detention, tightening overall project budgets.
  • Non‑hazardous designation simplifies documentation and avoids hazmat surcharges for faster, cleaner quotes.
