Denver NO YES IMMEDIATE We are currently seeing a shortage of 40' DCCP chassis in Denver. DCCP has not had any bare chassis to release over the last few weeks so we are relying on street turns for exports. Additionally the UP has started to place some containers on the ground until they get inventory to place containers on wheels. Definitely nothing like the shortages we saw during the pandemic but there are some slight disruptions. Other than that things are running smooth in the Denver Market, reach out to Denver@portxlogistics.com for your transportation needs.
