This program will assist you in determining the truck classification for ground freight for domestic destinations. This is a USA centric app. The governing publication for the class rate system is the National Motor Freight Classification,
which is reissued annually. The NMFC publication is provided by SMC³ under an exclusive agreement
with the American Trucking Associations (ATA) and the National Motor Freight Traffic Association, Inc. (NMFTA).
The principle factors used in the freight classification process are:
• Cost of service to the carrier
• Value of service to the shipper
• Competition
• Value of article
• Methods of packing and protecting the article
• Risk
• Dimensions and weight So, use this tool as an estimation only.
