Glossary of Truck Shipping Terms
• Common Carrier - Company that provides transportation services to the public in return for compensation.
• Consignee - The person or place where a shipment will be transferred for the last time (destination); the individual or organization to who the goods are addressed.
• Dock to Dock - As part of the common carrier driver ICC regulations, truck drivers are required only to bring merchandise to the tailgate (end) of their vehicle.
• Inside Delivery - Inside delivery means that the driver will carry the item(s) for you through the threshold of your building. For residential deliveries, this means inside your garage. Unfortunately they are not authorized to use stairs or elevators, nor will they place it in the room of your choice.
• Lift Gate Service - When the destination location does not have a loading dock or forklift, manual unloading is necessary. This requires a lift gate, which is a motorized platform attached to the back of certain trucks that can lower a shipment to the ground.
• Loading Dock - A platform, generally the same height as the trailer floor, where trucks are loaded and unloaded.
• Residential Delivery - Locations other than what the carrier defines as a business location; one that opens and closes each day to the general public at set times. A business may be classified as a residential if it is located in a residential zone, even if it opens and closes at set times. Schools, colleges, and churches located in residential zones could also incur residential fees.
• White Glove Delivery - White Glove delivery service includes a call to schedule a delivery appointment, trained professionals to unload your item from the truck, bring it into the room of choice, unpack the item and remove all packaging debris from the premises.
