What is an LR number?

LR (Lorry Receipt) is used for road freight and B2B consignments. DTDC and other logistics providers use LR numbers alongside AWB for tracking.

Who uses LR numbers

Freight and bulk shipments often show an LR on paperwork. Consumer e-commerce parcels more often use AWB-style IDs.

Track by LR number

Enter your LR with or without the “LR” prefix. The system detects DTDC and other freight couriers when the format matches.

LR vs AWB

AWB is typical for e-commerce parcels; LR is common for bulk freight. Both can be tracked on WhereIsMyOrder when the partner is supported.
