Thedispatch listprovides the trailer loading schedule used by dock supervisors to control the outbound workflow. CLT “Dispatch and Tracking” defines this list as a time-based coordination tool that identifies when each outbound trailer should arrive, be loaded, and depart. It helps balance labor, equipment, and dock-door availability. While theShipping Manifestdetails the cargo already loaded, the dispatch list focuses onplanning and sequencing. TheBill of Ladingbecomes effective only after loading is complete. The CLT stresses disciplined scheduling as essential to maintaining carrier appointment windows and reducing dwell time. Effective use of dispatch lists supports just-in-time shipping operations and maximizes dock efficiency.
