NMFC 61805 - e‑Cig & Vape Devices | Class by Density

Note 61806: NOTE-Articles may be shipped with complement of e-liquid or e-juice, other than toxic, in same package.

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Calculate density for each master carton: measure L x W x H in inches, convert to cubic feet, then divide weight by cubic feet (e.g., 18x18x14 in at 42 lb ≈ 2.625 cu ft → 16.0 pcf).
2. Use sturdy boxes with interior trays or dividers so devices, pods, and subassemblies don’t shift or activate during transit; bag any residual liquid to protect electronics.
3. Document clearly on the BOL: “NMFC 61805 – ENDS/e‑cig devices, density‑based, Item 170,” with accurate weight, piece count, and dimensions for each carton.
4. Boost density to lower class: right‑size cartons, remove empty display voids, and consolidate retail packs into snug master cases without crushing the products.

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