Discharging / Loading Report

A discharging/loading report, also known as a discharge/loading tally report, provides a detailed account of the loading or unloading process of cargo onto or from a vessel, typically at a port or terminal. The report includes detailed information about the cargo being loaded or discharged, such as quantity, type, weight, and packaging. This verification is essential to prevent errors, discrepancies, or potential disputes. 

Discharge/loading reports also include timestamps recording the beginning and end of cargo operations. This data is crucial for tracking the efficiency of port operations and vessel turnaround times. 

Furthermore, discharging/loading reports meticulously detail the quantities of cargo moved, often using units of measurement like TEUs (Twenty-foot Equivalent Units) for containers or metric tons for bulk cargo. This information is essential for invoicing and inventory management.
