How to Determine Your Class

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

  1. Declare NMFC 89790 and Class 125 on the BOL for folded, hand‑portable stadium or bleacher seats packed in boxes.
  2. Use sturdy cartons with corner protection so metal frames or seat hinges don’t puncture the box; fill voids with kraft or foam.
  3. Palletize multiple cartons: align within the pallet footprint, avoid overhang, and stretch wrap with a top sheet to deter dust and scuffing.
  4. If shipping hardware or cup holders, bag small parts and place inside each carton to prevent rattling and damage in LTL transit.

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

Business Value

  • Fixed Class 125 simplifies quoting and reduces reclass disputes—no density calculation or dimensional breaks required.
  • Boxed, folded design lowers damage risk, improving claim ratios and preserving carrier discounts for stadiums, schools, and event suppliers.
  • Clear NMFC mapping speeds rate shopping across carriers, enabling tighter bid cycles for seasonal or project-based seating installs.
  • Non-hazardous classification streamlines compliance and minimizes accessorials tied to special handling or restricted materials.
