NMFC 64750 - Grain Bins & Elevators w/ Hoppers | Class N/A

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Use the precise item name on the BOL: Bins or Elevators, feed or grain handling, with hoppers, iron or steel. Pair it with NMFC 64750 to reduce reclass risk.
2. Ship knockdown when possible: nest elevator leg sections and invert hopper cones on heavy skids. Band with steel strapping and add timber blocking to lock pieces in.
3. Protect edges, gates, and transitions with corner guards and plywood shields. Mark center of gravity and lifting points for safe forklift or crane handling.
4. Measure overall footprint after banding or crating. Tall, top‑heavy assemblies ride best on A‑frame racks; request liftgate or crane service for rural farm sites.

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

• Accurate NMFC naming cuts reclass charges and keeps LTL quotes clean and predictable.
• Modular packing (knockdown legs, separated motors/gearboxes) trims billable dimensions and lowers damage exposure.
• Non-hazardous designation avoids hazmat fees and simplifies paperwork across carriers.
• Purpose-built skids and bracing reduce handling time at terminals, improving on-time delivery during harvest or feed season.
