NSC Level 1- Introduction

This course provides an overview of load securement requirements for commercial vehicles, including proper tie-down selection, working load limits, cargo inspections, blocking and bracing, and commodity-specific securement practices. Participants will also learn how to identify common cargo securement violations, understand the Out-of-Service criteria associated with improperly secured loads, and recognize deficiencies that could result in roadside enforcement action. Practical examples will help drivers and carriers reduce risk, improve compliance, and prevent cargo from shifting, falling, leaking, or escaping during transport.
