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

One page, top to bottom:

Printed under the title: What is on the vehicle, where each drop goes, who signed for it and what came back.

Limits come from the plate and the rules. No weight limits, axle loads or securing methods are printed here. They depend on the vehicle, the load and the law where you are driving, and getting them from a website instead of the plate and the regulations is how vehicles end up overloaded.

Write-on lines: Vehicle and registration · Driver · Date · Run or route · Departure time · Odometer out · Odometer in · Return time · Load checked and secured by

Drops

Table, 8 rows: Stop · Consignee and address · Reference · Items · Description · Time · Signed for by · Discrepancy or refusal

Ruled lines: Returns, refusals and anything brought back

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.
