Although some water-saving measures have been taken over the past few months, the situation of insufficient rainwater in the area is posing some impact on the water levels of the Panama Canal. Therefore, the Panama Canal Authority has recently made some verification on the increasing limitations related to the volume of ships passing through the canal.” MSC said in the Notification. ✍ MSC Shipping line advised that these restrictions, combined with increased canal tolls implemented at the beginning of this year, are having a direct influence on its overall operational cost. 🖐 Hello, This is HT Logs, we can help you on ocean freight from all ports, handling customs, and trucking for local shippers.

Handling Of Container Can't To Be Covered Under Taxable Activity Of Cargo Handling: CESTAT

Here is an interesting article to remind us about the difference between storage and demurrage etc. Something that the lines are profiting greatly from nowadays so best we know our terms fully.

Some interesting shipping trends to the West Coast -- but can we really be surprised? Obviously as we continue to see disruptions caused by the Houthis in the Red Sea and drought in the Panama Canal, shippers are deciding to divert freight to LA and Oakland. Here are a few things to consider: 1. Fewer available chassis 2. Higher risk of potential fees like demurrage 3. Less certainty of delivery windows These reinforce the need for improved intermodal visibility so you can surface LFDs, manage exceptions, and give your customers greater peace of mind. https://lnkd.in/eqT3F-eJ

To calculate the weight of a container, you need to know two values: 1. Tare weight (also known as the container's empty weight): This is the weight of the container itself, without any cargo. You can find the tare weight on the container's identification plate or in the documentation provided by the container owner. 2. Payload weight (also known as the cargo weight): This is the weight of the cargo inside the container. The formula to calculate the container's weight is: Container Weight = Tare Weight + Payload Weight For example, if the tare weight is 3,720 KG and the payload weight is 26,760 KG (which is the maximum weight the container can carry, excluding its tare weight), then: Container Weight = 3,720 KG + 26,760 KG = 30,480 KG This is the maximum weight that the container can carry, including its own weight. This value is also known as the Gross Weight or VGM (Verified Gross Mass), which is required for shipping and customs purposes.
