Dock receipt and shipping instructions for shipping LCL freight from the USA.

We need one business day to schedule an international shipment. To ensure a smooth process, please book and pay a deposit three to seven business days before you plan to ship.

After booking through our online freight calculato and paying the deposit, we will begin processing your shipment. We’ll email you the shipping instructions, which may vary based on the selected service but will include important information.

• Your booking number from the ocean freight carrier is essential for shipping goods internationally from the U.S. to other countries.
• The customer reference number helps us track your shipment in our emails and phone calls. Please format this number as US200124BL.
• We provide a web link to the dock receipt, which shows sailing details such as the vessel name, voyage number, estimated departure time (ETD), estimated arrival time (ETA), and cargo delivery cutoff.
• You can also find a web link to print your shipping labels.
• If you don’t have a commercial invoice for your goods, you can use this web link to submit your valued packing list.

The shipping instructions will differ depending on the kind of service you requested.

• If you're dropping off cargo directly at an ocean carrier's freight terminal (CFS), just pull up the web link on your dock receipt and print two copies. The dock receipt includes the cargo delivery address and the CFS contact number.
   
  Think of the dock receipt as your ticket for shipping internationally. Drop off your packed and labeled items at the CFS along with two printed copies of the dock receipt.
   
  
• If you deliver cargo to a U.S. domestic LTL carrier terminal for line haul and shipping to a CFS, a PDF of the U.S. domestic LTL bill of lading will be attached. Please print at least two copies. The delivery address and LTL terminal phone number are in the email with shipping instructions.
   
  The bill of lading is like a ticket for your shipment. Drop off your packed items at the LTL freight terminal with two copies of the LTL bill of lading.
   
  
• If you requested a cargo PICKUP, we’ll confirm the date and send the LTL carrier's bill of lading as a PDF. Please print at least two copies and be ready to meet the driver. The dispatcher’s phone number is in the shipping email.
  
  On pickup day, hand your cargo and the bill of lading to the driver. Get your copy signed and keep it as proof. It's smart to call the LTL dispatcher the day before to confirm the pickup details.
