Bill of Lading Templates by Freight Class

NMFC freight-class templates from 50 (cheapest, densest) to 500 (lightest, most expensive). Each comes with density range, example commodities, and pricing notes.

Pick your freight class

• Class 50 — ≥ 50 lb/ft³
• Class 55 — 35–50 lb/ft³
• Class 60 — 30–35 lb/ft³
• Class 65 — 22.5–30 lb/ft³
• Class 70 — 15–22.5 lb/ft³
• Class 77.5 — 13.5–15 lb/ft³
• Class 85 — 12–13.5 lb/ft³
• Class 92.5 — 10.5–12 lb/ft³
• Class 100 — 9–10.5 lb/ft³
• Class 110 — 8–9 lb/ft³
• Class 125 — 7–8 lb/ft³

• Class 175 — 5–6 lb/ft³
• Class 200 — 4–5 lb/ft³
• Class 250 — 3–4 lb/ft³
• Class 300 — 2–3 lb/ft³
• Class 400 — 1–2 lb/ft³
• Class 500 — < 1 lb/ft³

How freight class is determined

The National Motor Freight Classification (NMFC) sorts LTL freight into 18 classes based on density, stowability, handling, and liability. For most shipments, density alone (lbs per cubic foot) determines class — denser freight gets lower (cheaper) classes. Picking the right class on the BOL prevents reweigh/reclass surprises on the invoice.
