The Fastest Way to Check NMFC Code Changes in 2025

Joe Ohr - April 21, 2025

Major NMFC Updates Are Coming July 19—Are Your Item Numbers Changing?

The 2025 National Motor Freight Classification (NMFC®) changes take effect on July 19, 2025, and many LTL freight items are being reclassified. If you’re a shipper or 3PL handling multiple commodities, figuring out what’s changing—and how it affects your operations—can feel overwhelming.

To make things easier, the National Motor Freight Traffic Association, Inc. (NMFTA)™ has launched a free online tool that allows you to quickly look up whether your NMFC item numbers are impacted.

This new tool gives you a fast, simple way to check whether your current NMFC item numbers are:

  • Staying the same;
  • Assigned a new class; and
  • Moving to density-based classification.

All you need is your item number list. You can:

  • Type in a single item numberl
  • Paste in a list separated by commas; or
  • Upload a CSV file with hundreds of item numbers.

Within seconds, the tool will show the classification status for each item. You’ll also have the option to export your results to CSV — great for internal documentation or team review.

Available for a Limited Time

The tool will only be available for a few weeks leading up to the LTL freight classification changes. To access it, simply:

  1. Sign up with your name and email address;
  2. Receive a login link via email; and
  3. Start checking your items.

Whether you manage a small number of commodities or thousands, this tool was built to help you quickly identify changes so you can keep your systems accurate and your documentation up to date.

Users also have the ability to export their results if it is 1 item or 500 items. Try it today:
