USA Ports Congestion Chassis Shortages Capacity Lead Time Special Notes
New York/New Jersey YES NO NONE With the increasing volumes, PNCT and APM terminals have been hitting some congestion causing excessive wait times for drivers. APM terminal is backlogged 2-3 days for terminal appointments. With the upcoming holiday at the end of the month, delays could continue increasing with potential congestion charges being implemented and capacity may decrease as a result of excessive driver wait time. Be sure to get your orders to our team prior vessel arrival to guarantee capacity. We monitor port congestion daily and report back whenever there is an issue – follow our LinkedIn page for the most up to date Port and Rail reportings

Vancouver YES NO NONE Excessive rail container dwells, which contribute to congestion at Vancouver’s marine terminals, have risen steadily this year, from 5.2 days in January to 6.7 days in February and 7.3 days in March, according to the port’s website. Vanterm was the one exception, with rail dwell times on average under three days.
