How to write a courier delivery note
A courier delivery note goes out with a parcel or consignment and lists what is inside, how many pieces and the weight, so the driver and recipient can confirm the handover. It is the proof-of-dispatch and proof-of-receipt for a courier movement.
This template opens with itemised lines. Add the sender, recipient, the parcel contents and piece count, a tracking reference, and a space to sign, then download a PDF delivery note.
What to include
- “Delivery Note” label, number and date
- Sender and recipient details
- Contents, number of pieces and total weight
- A tracking / consignment reference
- Driver and recipient signature lines
Note: Driver and recipient sign to confirm the number of pieces handed over.
Frequently asked questions
What does a courier delivery note need?
The contents, the number of pieces and the weight, a tracking or consignment reference, the sender and recipient details, and signature lines for the driver and recipient. Piece count and signature are what settle disputes.
Do I need one if the courier already tracks the parcel?
A tracking number confirms movement, but a delivery note lists exactly what is inside and is signed on receipt — useful proof of what was actually handed over, not just that a box arrived.

What is the difference between a delivery note and an invoice?
A delivery note (or dispatch note / packing slip) travels with the goods and lists what is in the shipment so the recipient can check and sign for it. It usually shows quantities, not prices, and is not a request for payment. The invoice is the document that asks to be paid.
Turn delivered goods into invoices
A delivery note confirms what was shipped and received. When it is time to bill, the Invoices Tracker turns the delivery into an invoice and keeps your clients, payments and what is still owed in one place.
