NMFTA to publish motor freight classification

user-gravatar Headshot

The National Motor Freight Traffic Association, which represents North American less-than-truckload carriers, will begin publishing the new issue of the National Motor Freight Classification (NMFC) NMF 100-AF in November. The NMFC is used by carriers and shippers alike for classifying goods for transport in North America.

NMFTA has been assembling the data and compiling the material that underlies the Classification for nearly 50 years. Until this year, the American Trucking Associations owned the copyright to the NMFC and arranged for its marketing and sales. Earlier this year, NMFTA bought the copyright from ATA. NMFTA will publish and market the classification in-house.
