What is a Transport Order?

A transport order is a document that confirms the fulfillment of an agreement between the ordering party and the carrier. The transport order is essentially an instruction to move items or materials from one storage unit to another within a defined time frame.

When transport businesses accept trips, clients send transport orders to the transport providers. The order primarily provides all pertinent information such as sender, recipient, time slot, tonnage, transport vehicle, loading meter, and transport price.
