National Motor Freight Classification. The National Motor Freight Traffic Association publishes the National Motor Freight ClassificationÂ® (NMFCÂ®), a standard that provides a comparison of commodities moving in commerce. The NMFCÂ® is developed and maintained by the Commodity Classification Standards Board (CCSB).
