NMFC 92280 - Hairpieces & Wigs in Boxes | Class 400

Note 92281: NOTE-For provisions applicable to masquerade costume or toy hairpieces, see item 23060, 'Beards, Mustaches or Wigs, masquerade costume or toy.'

To find the correct freight class for your shipment:

1. Confirm the product fits NMFC 92280: human or imitation hair goods (wigs, wiglets, falls, toupees). Costume or toy hair goes to item 92281 instead.
2. Package only in boxes or Package 2213. Use molded forms or nets to hold style, poly-bags for humidity control, and a tight outer corrugated carton to prevent crush.
3. Book it at Class 400—density won’t change the class. Still provide accurate carton count, weight, and dimensions for carrier space planning and pricing.
4. Reduce loss risk: avoid flashy brand marks on cartons, apply tamper-evident tape, and note limited stackability on labels when styles risk deformation.

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

• Accurate NMFC 92280 use prevents reclass fees and carrier disputes, protecting margins on high-value hair merchandise.
• Class 400 visibility helps forecast LTL costs and negotiate profile-based rates for salon chains, theatrical suppliers, and medical hair providers.
• Right packaging (boxes/Package 2213) cuts damage claims by preserving shape, sheen, and texture—fewer returns and better customer satisfaction.
• Non-hazardous status streamlines tendering and documentation, enabling faster dock turns and more predictable transit times.
