What is a Bill of Lading?
A Bill of Lading (BOL) is a legally binding document between a shipper, carrier, and consignee. It serves three purposes: a receipt for the goods, a contract of carriage, and a document of title. Every truckload shipment in the US requires one.
The BOL must travel with the freight from origin to destination. At delivery, the consignee signs it as proof of receipt (Proof of Delivery / POD). Without a signed POD tied to a BOL, collecting on a freight invoice becomes difficult. This generator creates a standard straight BOL — the most common type used in domestic truckload shipping.
