FAQ
Questions NMFC Calculator owners ask.
- 01
How do I calculate the density of my shipment?
You can use the calculate_shipping_density capability. Simply provide the weight in pounds and the dimensions (length, width, and height) in inches.
- 02
What is NMFC freight class?
The National Motor Freight Classification (NMFC) system categorizes commodities based on density, ease of handling, and stability to determine shipping rates.
- 03
How does freight class affect my costs?
Higher freight classes (lower density) typically involve higher cost multipliers due to the increased space consumption in a trailer. You can use evaluate_cost_impact to see this effect.
