Greetings,
It sounds like you're looking to create a Bill of Lading (BOL) for your truckload shipment.
For each LTL or FTL shipment you create in your shipping queue, you must provide a valid bill of lading (BOL) to the carrier, so it can schedule a delivery appointment. Shipment BOLs that do not meet the requirements listed below will be refused upon delivery. For Amazon-partnered LTL or FTL shipments, a BOL is generated on the morning of the pickup date and becomes available in the Track shipment tab of the Shipment summary. You can additionally download a blank BOL to fill in for your partnered carrier shipment here.
Follow these guidelines when filling out the BOL form provided by your carrier. We recommend using a standard BOL template, which helps ensure that your shipment is easy to identify and received in a timely manner. If your carrier does not provide a template, make sure your BOL includes the following information:
- All Amazon reference IDs and shipment IDs contained in the shipment. You can find these in the Summary of the Shipment creation workflow.
- Seller name
- From address (street address, city, state, ZIP code)
- Legal name of the seller
- Carrier name and standard carrier alpha code (SCAC)
- Carrier's shippers reference number (PRO#)
- Handling unit quantity (pallet, box, each) information
- Trailer and seal number (truckload shipment only)
- "Shipper load and count" or "SLC" if the trailer is loaded, locked, and sealed without enabling the driver to count or inspect the shipment contents
- Correct pallet and box count quantities
- Freight charge terms
Include the BOL number on the shipping container or pallet label. This allows for quick freight verification upon delivery to the Amazon fulfillment center.
