How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Use lined, sturdy corrugated boxes for powders; double-bag fine material in sealed poly liners to prevent sifting and add a moisture barrier for humid routes.
  2. For sachets, load pouches in snug inner cartons, then master-pack with void fill; use a bag-in-box approach to contain any leaks and protect printing from scuffing.
  3. Palletize in even layers with corner boards, top cap, and stretch wrap; avoid overhang and cap stack height around 40–48 inches to reduce compression damage.
  4. On the BOL, note “NMFC 59090, Class 100, non-hazardous toilet/sachet powder, boxes” and include piece count; class is fixed, but accurate weight still speeds processing.

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

Business Value

  • Fixed Class 100 rating delivers predictable LTL quotes and helps teams forecast shipping budgets with less reclass risk.
  • Non-hazardous status streamlines carrier acceptance and reduces compliance burdens, accelerating tender-to-pickup timelines.
  • Package 2213-compliant and well-sealed cartons minimize leakage and sifting claims, protecting margins and customer experience.
  • Efficient master-cartoning of sachets improves cube utilization, enabling tighter pallet builds and lower cost per unit shipped.
