Trucking Market: Getting Ready for Upcoming LTL Classification Changes
Partner

This summer what has been called the biggest change in LTL pricing since deregulation in 1980 will hit the US trucking market: The "reimagination" of the classification system used to help price less-than-truckload freight. The National Motor Freight Traffic Association (NMFTA) is proposing more than 90 changes to the National Motor Freight Classification or NMFC, dramatically increasing its reliance on density to determine a shipment's or product's classification. Shippers will need to more accurately measure the dimensions and weight of every pallet, which for some will mean big changes to the procedures they use to build pallets and move freight. The proposed changes are scheduled to be finalized by July, so the time to review LTL shipping practices and procedures to avoid costly reclassification is now.
Join us for this webcast that will look at the proposed NMFC changes and what shippers are doing to get ready for them.
