German term or phrase: Schiebeverdeck
Sorry for the multiple postings of the same sentence but this is a doozy,

Der AN wird für die Sendungszustellung und Leergutübernahme in den Werken ausschließlich poolgitterboxbreite LKW einsetzen, die beidseitig und heck- be- und entladbar sind und über eine nutzbare Innenhöhe von mind. 3,00 m sowie Hubdach (Durchladehöhe mind. 3,00 m) verfügen oder bedarfsweise mit Schiebeverdeck ausgestattet sind.

For delivery of shipments and pick-up of empties at the plants, CONTRACTOR will only use trucks that have the width of a Europool wiremesh collapsible pallet, which may be loaded and unloaded on both sides and the rear, and have a usable interior height of at least 3.00 m as well as an elevating roof (load-through height of at least 3.00 m), or are equipped with a sliding roof if required.
