Facebook LinkedIn EMO Trans Bulletin 2021-47 View in your browser Ports of LA/Long Beach Announce Further Postponement of Dwell Fee Until 12/6 November 29, 2021 Dear Valued Customer, The Port of Long Beach and the Port of Los Angeles today announced a further postponement of the “Container Dwell Fee.” After meetings today with U.S. Port Envoy John Porcari, ocean liner companies, and marine terminal operators, the two ports said the fee will not be considered prior to December 6. Since the fee was announced on October 25, the two ports have seen a decline of 37% combined in aging cargo on the docks. The executive directors of both ports are satisfied with the progress thus far and will reassess fee implementation after another week of monitoring data. If implemented, the ports would charge ocean carriers $100 per container, increasing in $100 increments per container per day until the container leaves the terminal. Charges are cumulative once they begin. You can read the full announcement here. We will continue to provide updates as they become available. Thank you for choosing EMO Trans to handle your shipping needs. If you have questions or concerns, please contact your sales account manager or EMO Trans' operations staff.
