Click on the link for Daylight Freight and enable the plugin.<\/p>\n\n 7. Configure your products<\/strong>\nAssign each of your products and product variations a weight, Shipping Class and freight classification. Products shipping LTL freight should have the Shipping Class set to \u201cLTL Freight\u201d. The Freight Classification should be chosen based upon how the product would be classified in the NMFC Freight Classification Directory. If you are unfamiliar with freight classes, contact the carrier and ask for assistance with properly identifying the freight classes for your products.<\/p>\n\n\n If the shopping cart contains one or more products tagged to ship LTL freight, all of the products in the shopping cart\nare assumed to ship LTL freight. To ensure the most accurate quote possible, make sure that every product has a weight, dimensions and a freight classification recorded.<\/p><\/dd>\n In the absence of a freight class, the plugin will determine the freight classification using the density calculation method. To do so the products weight and dimensions must be recorded. This is accurate in most cases, however identifying the proper freight class will be the most reliable method for ensuring accurate rate estimates.<\/p><\/dd>\n One of the shipment parameters (weight, dimensions, freight class) is different, or additional services (such as residential\ndelivery, lift gate, delivery by appointment and others) were required. Compare the details of the invoice to the shipping\nsettings on the products included in the shipment. Consider making changes as needed. Remember that the weight of the packaging\nmaterials, such as a pallet, is included by the carrier in the billable weight for the shipment.<\/p><\/dd>\n Contact your local Daylight Freight office for assistance. You might also consider getting a subscription to ClassIT offered\nby the National Motor Freight Traffic Association (NMFTA).
