NMFC 8410 - Wheeled Plows | Class N/A

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Identify on the BOL as wheeled plows and reference NMFC 8410; lock or chock wheels, cap sharp edges, and secure loose hardware in a sealed bag.
2. Remove detachable handles or blades where possible, bundle them, and strap the plow to a pallet through the frame (not through spokes) to prevent movement.
3. Choose packaging by trip length and handling: wood crate for single units, or a reusable steel rack for multi-plow dealer shipments to protect wheels and controls.
4. Measure the full footprint including handles and wheel overhang, photograph the packed unit, and keep weights handy to support carrier inspections or class reviews.

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

• Non-hazardous commodity reduces compliance steps and avoids hazmat surcharges.
• Clear NMFC identification and proper packaging help prevent reclass fees and surprise rate adjustments when class is listed as N/A.
• Consolidating multiple plows into one handling unit lowers pickup time, minimizes accessorials, and can improve LTL pricing.
• Durable crates or racks cut transit damage and warranty claims for farm suppliers, co-ops, and garden equipment dealers.
