German term or phrase: Rollkarte
Comes under Frachtpapiere. It's the document checked and signed before shipments leave the depot to be delivered. Is this synonymous with 'Bordero' (= delivery note)?

All the references I found for cartage note were either Australian or New Zealand. In the second reference it\'s referred to as a \"receival advice.\"

Quotes - Cartage Note for Customer Quotations
The cartage note is now held on the Department Table. There can now be different cartage notes by Department.

Thanks - in the end I found this term alongside 'bordereau' (so they're not synonymous) as a translation of Rollkarte in a document authored by Prof. U. Clausen, an expert in the field.
