Delivery Order
A Delivery Order (D/O) is a document from a consignee, an owner or an agent of a freight
carrier that orders the release of the transportation of cargo to another party. This written order
allows for the direct delivery of goods to a warehouseman, carrier or another person who
issues warehouse receipts or Bills of Lading. This document should not be confused with
delivery instructions. Delivery Instructions provide specific details to carriers regarding the
arrangement made by the forwarder to deliver the merchandise to a particular destination.
Dock Receipt
A Doc Receipt confirms that cargo has been received for shipment. This document is issued by
a shipping company and transfers the accountability for the safe transport of the cargo from the
shipper to the carrier. It is the basis for preparing the bill of lading.
A Bill of Lading is evidence that there is a contract between a shipper of goods and a carrier.
The customer typically needs this original copy as proof and in order to take ownership of the
goods. This document includes the conditions under which the transportation was conducted
and acts as a receipt. This document may be endorsed or transferred to a third party even while
goods are in transit.
