When goods are transported intercity, you will often hear about the 'LR' or 'consignment note', also called a bilty. It is an important document that records and protects your shipment.
What is an LR?
LR stands for Lorry Receipt. It is the document issued by the transporter acknowledging that your goods have been received for transport, with details of the consignment, route and parties.
What it contains
- Sender and receiver names and addresses.
- Pickup and delivery locations.
- A description of the goods or number of packages.
- Vehicle and date details.
Why it matters
The LR is proof that your goods were handed over for transport. It is important for tracking, for claims, and as a record that ties the shipment to your booking.
Keep it safe
Hold on to your LR / consignment note along with your quotation and invoice until your goods are delivered and verified.
