How to Determine Your Class
To find the correct freight class for your shipment:
- List NMFC 50660 with “Tanks, septic, reinforced concrete” on the BOL, plus piece count, total weight, outside dimensions, and lifting‑eye locations.
- 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.
- Coordinate jobsite handling: confirm crane or boom capacity, rigging, and spreader bars; share access details (turn radius, soil bearing) and set firm appointment windows.
- 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.
