How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. List NMFC 67920 and Class 50 on the BOL, and note the package type (cloth or five-ply paper bags, boxes, or drums) plus grade/mesh for receiver clarity.
  2. For bagged feldspar, palletize tightly with slip sheets, corner boards, and stretch wrap; keep bags inside pallet edges to prevent punctures and product loss.
  3. For boxes or drums, band and brace to the pallet, mark Keep Dry, and avoid double-stacking unless packaging is certified for it.
  4. Plan accessorials for delivery points like tile studios or ceramic shops—request liftgate or call-ahead to prevent redelivery fees and delays.

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

Business Value

  • Fixed Class 50 helps secure competitive LTL rates and predictable budgeting compared with higher-class mineral shipments.
  • Non-hazardous status cuts compliance overhead—no hazmat paperwork or surcharges, speeding tender and pickup.
  • Exact item match (Feldspar, NMFC 67920) reduces reclass disputes, inspections, and surprise rebills from carriers.
  • Multiple approved packages—bags, boxes, or drums—enable sourcing flexibility and minimize repack labor without changing the class.
