A claused bill of lading is a bill of lading that contains a clause or notation indicating that the goods have been damaged or lost in transit. Dead freight is a penalty charged by a shipowner for the space that has been booked by a charterer but not used. A clean bill of lading is a bill of lading that acknowledges receipt of goods in "apparent good order and condition" and without any notations or clauses indicating damage or loss.
