How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Use sealed primary containers (HDPE bottles or jars) with leakproof caps; bag and cushion inside sturdy double-wall boxes with absorbent liners to contain spills.
  2. Mark cartons Liquids - This Side Up and include NMFC 58810, Class 70 on the BOL; clear labeling helps prevent reclass fees and inspection delays.
  3. Protect from heat and freezing; aloe gels can thin or clump with temperature swings. Choose faster service or add insulated liners during extreme weather.
  4. If your formula is highly concentrated or blended with other actives, review the related NMFC note for item 58812 to confirm the correct listing.

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

Business Value

  • Class 70 for boxed aloe liquids provides predictable LTL quotes and often lower costs than items subject to density-based shifts.
  • Non-hazardous status avoids hazmat surcharges and expands carrier choices, reducing total landed cost.
  • Proper NMFC 58810 identification and packaging reduce reclassification disputes, chargebacks, and service interruptions.
  • Box-optimized shipments stack cleanly, lowering damage risk and claim costs while improving pallet cube utilization.
