DD Form 1750, the Packing List, itemizes exactly what is inside the boxes or containers of a military shipment. Supply and logistics personnel use it whenever equipment or materiel changes hands or location, so the receiving end can verify piece by piece that everything listed actually arrived.

It is a simple form that gets filled out constantly, and handwritten versions are notorious for illegible item descriptions. Completing the DD 1750 in the Universal PDF editor gives you typed, reusable packing lists you can download, print, and drop into each container.

What is DD Form 1750 used for

The packing list is the inventory record for a shipment. It links the contents of numbered boxes to a requisition or shipment, supports hand receipt and accountability transfers, and gives the receiving unit a checklist for verifying the delivery.

Typical uses include:

  • Unit moves and deployments, where equipment is packed into numbered containers
  • Shipping components of an end item, so the receiver can confirm completeness
  • Turn-ins and lateral transfers of equipment between units
  • Supply shipments that need a box level inventory to accompany the paperwork

Who prepares DD Form 1750

The person or section packing the shipment prepares the list: supply sergeants and clerks, unit movement personnel, and anyone signing equipment over to another party. The preparer certifies the list, and the receiving side checks the contents against it on arrival.

Because the form supports accountability, discrepancies between the list and the actual contents are documented and resolved through the units' supply channels.

How to fill out DD Form 1750

Pack and count first, then record. The form's columns and header blocks cover:

  • Header data: the number of boxes in the shipment, requisition or order number, and the date
  • Box number for each container, so every line ties to a physical box
  • Contents: item descriptions and stock or part numbers precise enough for the receiver to identify each item
  • Quantity of each item packed
  • Initials or certification of the preparer, and totals for the shipment
  • Page numbering when the list runs across multiple sheets

Where the form goes

Standard practice is to place a copy inside the container, attach or forward a copy with the shipment documents, and keep a copy with the sending unit's records. The receiving unit uses its copy to verify the delivery and notes any overages, shortages, or damage.

Your supply section sets the local routing details. As with any DD form, confirm you are using the current edition via your supply office or the official DoD forms site.

Frequently asked questions

No. A hand receipt records responsibility for property between people, while the DD 1750 records what is physically packed in a shipment. They often travel together when equipment transfers between units.
