What this sheet is for

Give a driver one sheet showing the whole run, with a signature line per drop and a place to record refusals and returns.

Who it is for

Small hauliers, trades delivering materials, market traders, caterers and anyone running a multi-drop day.

How to use it

  1. Check the load against the sheet before leaving, and have somebody else check it.
  2. Get a signature and a time at every drop.
  3. Write discrepancies and refusals down at the door, in front of the customer.
  4. Record returns at the end of the run, before unloading.

What is on the sheet

The layout is fixed at a size that fits both A4 and US Letter, so the A4 and Letter files are visually identical and print at full size on either. Rows are set at a height that an adult can actually write a date and a few words into with a pen — most printable tables are built in a word processor and never tested with one.

Questions

Does it tell me how much I can carry?

No. Weight limits come from the vehicle's plate and the law where you are driving, and load securing requirements differ by country and load type. Getting those from a website instead of the plate is how vehicles end up overloaded.
