Danish term or phrase: linieforsendelse
This comes from a contract regarding the supply of ICT services:

"2. Leveringssted
Materiale, der skal indlægges, leveres af kunden efter aftale på følgende adresse:
Linieforsendelse
ADDRESS "

I really can't find a decent solution for 'Linieforsendelse' at all, so any help you can give would be appreciated.

Many thanks.

English translation:Deliveries
Explanation:
There isn't a single term that can cover this. To translate it faithfully, you need a solid background in logistics to understand the functions in a departmentalized logistics company.
In this context, you should translate the department name to 'Deliveries', but linieforsendelse can also be found in route planning.
A few examples of linieforsendelse translated to English, varied by context.
Delivery Routes.
Freight Lines.
Shipping lines (caution - restricted use, few examples).

Never translate to -
Trade Route.
Freight Charters/Chartering.
Cargo Line.
