Inland transport request

Inland transport request definition

An inland transport request (ITR) is a formal request made by a shipper or consignee to arrange the movement of cargo from a port or terminal to an inland destination, or vice versa. It covers the transportation of goods using land-based modes of transport, such as trucks, trains, or barges. The ITR logistics document includes important details like the type of cargo, pickup and delivery locations, preferred mode of transport, and any specific handling requirements.
