NMFC 68920: Wooden Packing Partitions | Class 60–100

Note 68922: NOTE-Applies to wooden fillers or partitions with cleats or other projections affixed to surfaces, when the thickness of the cleat or projection exceeds one-third of the thickness of the article to which it is affixed.

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Ship only as packaged product—bundle stacks of wooden partitions or fillers inside cartons, then palletize; loose pieces don’t fit this entry.
2. Identify the product clearly on the BOL (e.g., “wooden packing partitions, NOI, in packages”) and note count of cartons to support the 60–100 class range.
3. Stabilize cartons with corner boards and stretch wrap so narrow, flat parts don’t shift; beverage bottlers often ship flat sets in 40x48 pallets for safe handling.
4. Exporting? If the wood is solid, confirm ISPM 15 compliance and markings to avoid holds; add treatment details in documents when applicable.

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

• Correct NMFC alignment reduces reclass and inspection fees on shipments of wood dividers and inserts.
• Two-class entry (60–100) lets you quote accurately for budget control; documenting packaging helps secure the lower applicable class.
• Non-hazardous status streamlines carrier acceptance and speeds tendering with fewer special handling charges.
• Cartonized, pallet-ready parts stack cleanly, lowering damage risk and minimizing accessorials tied to loose or awkward freight.
