NMFC 68035 - Wire-Fence Post Fixtures | Class 50

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Quote and tender as “Wire‑Fence Post Fixtures, Iron/Steel, in packages — NMFC 68035, Class 50” on the BOL and carton labels to prevent reclass.
2. Cartonize small parts (bands, caps, collars, rail ends) in inner polybags and dividers; pad sharp edges on clamps and extension arms to avoid box punctures.
3. Unitize multiple packages on a pallet: center cartons, add edge protectors under banding, and stretch‑wrap tightly to eliminate loose metal shifting.
4. Apply this item only to iron or steel components; keep aluminum or mixed‑material accessories on a separate NMFC to avoid disputes.

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

• Fixed Class 50 delivers predictable LTL rates for dense metal hardware, improving quote accuracy and budget control.
• Non-hazardous status broadens carrier options and removes hazmat surcharges, accelerating booking and pickup windows.
• Correct NMFC 68035 usage reduces reweigh/reclass fees and limits claims tied to vague descriptions of fence hardware.
• Standardized packaging for small steel parts cuts OS&D risk, translating into lower damage costs and fewer service interruptions.
