NMFC Description Class
67000.00 Cow Udders or Bags, frozen, having value only for animal feeding 100

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Label clearly: “Cow Udders, Frozen — For Animal Feeding Only,” include NMFC 67000, Class 100, and mark pallets as Frozen to route to reefer lanes.
  2. Freeze solid before tendering; use leakproof liners or sealed bags inside lined cartons. Add absorbent pads to catch purge and prevent dock cleanup fees.
  3. Palletize 48x40 with no overhang; interlock cartons and stretch-wrap with corner boards. Example: forty-five 40‑lb lined cartons per pallet for tight, stable stacks.
  4. Book temperature-controlled LTL when required and share actual weights and dims for capacity planning. Commodity is non-hazardous and ships at fixed Class 100.

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

Business Value

  • Fixed Class 100 simplifies quoting and reduces reclass risk, keeping rates predictable across carriers.
  • Non-hazardous status avoids hazmat surcharges and extra paperwork, accelerating tender-to-pickup timelines.
  • Clear “feed-only” documentation minimizes dock holds and claims, improving carrier acceptance for animal byproducts.
  • Efficient pallet builds (frozen blocks or lined cartons) reduce leakage accessorials and improve per‑pound costs on reefer LTL.
