NMFC 58860 - Hog Bile, Crude Liquid | Class 70

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. State the item clearly on the BOL: “Hog Bile, crude, liquid — NMFC 58860, Class 70,” and note packaging as boxes or drums to avoid reclass delays.
2. For boxes, place sealed HDPE jerricans inside double‑wall cartons with a poly liner and absorbent pads; tape seams, add orientation arrows, and label “Liquid.”
3. Use tight‑head plastic drums with tamper‑evident closures for bulk volumes; line pallets with a spill tray or drum liner and secure with straps plus full stretch‑wrap.
4. Keep away from foodstuffs and paper goods to control odor transfer; ship ambient or cool as required by your process, and mark “Do Not Freeze” if cold weather is a risk.

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

• Fixed Class 70 simplifies quoting and budgeting—no density calculations and fewer reclass disputes.
• Non‑hazmat status removes hazmat fees and special driver requirements, widening carrier options and lanes.
• Leak‑tight packaging prevents spill claims and cleanup charges, protecting margins and service performance.
• Drum or palletized jerrican handling speeds cross‑dock transfers, reducing touch points and potential OS&D costs.
