What is an EDI 227 Trailer Usage Report?

EDI 227 is an electronic document containing information about the usage of a trailer. This EDI document is used for the transmission of information regarding the usage of a trailer that is planned beforehand by the shipper, consignee, or a third party.

The EDI 227 document is used for the following purposes:

  • To provide information regarding the loading of a trailer
  • To provide information regarding the rejection of a trailer
  • To provide information regarding the reported location

However, it is not used to provide load tender data or pickup notification.

The data contents and format of an EDI 227 Trailer Usage Report are used for the electronic interchange of information. It is divided into various segments and data elements.
