Extra delivery accessorial explained
An added delivery location beyond the original delivery plan.
Written and reviewed by LaneMath Editorial Team, with carrier workflow review from Dale Morrow where practical dispatch, paperwork, or lane-planning context is involved. Updated 2026-06-04. LaneMath pages use public references, example-only math, and conservative editorial review.
Carrier context
An extra delivery creates receiver-side complexity because freight may be split, appointments may differ, and proof of delivery may need separate records.
When it applies
- A second or later delivery location is added beyond the original delivery plan.
- The added delivery changes routing, unload time, receiver requirements, or final paperwork.
- The event is tied to the load and is outside the basic linehaul move.
- The broker, shipper, or receiver instructions create extra time, labor, mileage, or out-of-pocket cost.
- The rate confirmation or written approval gives a path for requesting the charge.
What to check on the rate confirmation
- Extra delivery pay, delivery sequence, addresses, appointment windows, and whether each receiver has separate delay terms.
- Whether the charge includes mileage only or also unloading and paperwork time.
- Whether the charge is already included in the all-in rate.
- Free time, approval process, dollar amount, and documentation requirements.
- Who must approve the charge and whether a revised confirmation is required.
Common documentation
- POD for each delivery, receiver signatures, timestamps, shortage notes, and revised confirmation.
- Messages showing when the added delivery was approved.
- Arrival and departure times when time is part of the request.
- Receipts, signed paperwork, gate records, emails, or text approvals.
- POD, BOL, revised confirmation, and invoice notes.
Negotiation notes
- Price the added delivery before leaving the prior stop.
- Ask whether partial delivery or split paperwork changes billing requirements.
- Ask before the cost is incurred when possible.
- Keep the request factual and tied to written load terms.
- Do not assume approval from a phone conversation; request written confirmation.
Example wording
Please confirm the added delivery address, delivery sequence, extra-delivery pay, and documents required for each POD.
