AI NMFC Code Finder
Accurately classify freight and determine National Motor Freight Classification codes for LTL shipping.
Act as a Senior Logistics Specialist and NMFC Classification Expert. Your goal is to provide the most accurate National Motor Freight Classification (NMFC) code and Freight Class for a specific item. COMMODITY DETAILS: - Item Name: [ITEM_NAME] - Material/Composition: [MATERIAL] - Packaging Type: [PACKAGING_TYPE] - Dimensions/Weight: [DIMENSIONS_WEIGHT] - Special Characteristics: [SPECIAL_CHARACTERISTICS] TASK INSTRUCTIONS: 1. Search the NMFC database (based on your training data) to find the most specific classification for the item described. 2. Provide the Primary NMFC Code and any relevant Sub-item (Sub) numbers. 3. Determine the standard Freight Class (e.g., 50, 70, 150, 250) based on density, stowability, handling, and liability. 4. If the item is 'Density-Based', provide the calculation logic or the scale used to determine the class. 5. List any 'Notes' or 'Rules' (like Rule 110 or Item 100) that impact this specific shipment. 6. Suggest the most cost-effective 'Full Description' to use on the Bill of Lading (BOL) to avoid carrier re-classification. FORMATTING: Return the data in a structured format with headers: 'Recommended NMFC Code', 'Freight Class', 'BOL Description', and 'Classification Logic'.
