Classification Details

NMFC Description Class
86220.00 Gasoline Preservative, NOI, in drums 70

How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. State NMFC 86220 and Class 70 on the BOL with the description “Gasoline Preservative, NOI, in drums.” Declare hazmat, attach the SDS, and list a 24‑hour emergency contact.
  2. Use UN‑rated steel or poly drums with tight bungs and intact gaskets. Keep drums upright on a 4‑way pallet; add absorbent pads, edge protectors, two straps, and full stretch‑wrap.
  3. Palletize for LTL: for example, two 55‑gal drums per pallet, keeping total weight within carrier and liftgate limits to avoid refusals and rehandling.
  4. Tender only with hazmat‑authorized LTL carriers. Request hazardous materials accessorials and any liftgate or appointment needs, and apply flammable liquid labels per carrier guidance.

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

Business Value

  • Correct Class 70 rating for this NOI liquid curbs reclass charges and keeps freight quotes predictable.
  • UN‑rated drum packaging lowers spill risk and claim exposure, reducing downtime and cleanup costs.
  • Hazmat‑ready paperwork and labeling reduce dock holds, pickup refusals, and accessorial surprises.
  • Clear NMFC assignment streamlines routing guides and speeds carrier and 3PL onboarding for repeat shipments.
