We are very pleased to see continued improvements in the dwell time at T-18, Husky, and EST. For the past two weeks, T-18 has maintained an average dwell time well below 2hrs. Improvements have also been made at Husky and EST as well. PCT continues to have very high dwell times averaging 3.587 hrs. over the past two weeks.

Starting Nov. 6, 2017, terminal congestion for Husky will be reduced to $50. We will need to continue to charge a $100 congestion fee for moves through PCT given the high dwell times.

August 7, 2017

       In our original congestion announcement on July 19, 2017, we made a commitment to closely monitor dwell times, report weekly our findings, and adjust as appropriate. As part of that commitment starting August 7, 2017, Portland Container will stop charging a congestion fee for Terminal 18 in Seattle, WA. This decision was reached based on GPS data, operational observation, and a predetermined internal metric. Please note the chart below is derived from GPS and Geo Fence data collected by the Portland Container fleet trucks. We will continue to monitor dwell times at T18.

Congestion charge will continue to be applicable for Husky and PCT in Tacoma, WA. A $75 congestion fee will be assessed for each container.

Congestions

As many of you know, the congestion and round trip times at terminals in Seattle and Tacoma have, and continue to, grow. This is particularly an issue with Terminal 18 and Tacoma terminals. Over the past months, we have seen a drivers day creep from 10hrs to 14hrs plus. The challenges have included, at times, early closure of the crane row early at T-18, trucks have been loaded with wrong containers, directed to the wrong area in the yard, and at both T-18 and in Tacoma we have had to wait in lines for as long as 6hrs. plus, only to be turned away due to the end of the work day. It has been a trying and expensive couple of months for both Portland Container and our drivers.

Several weeks ago our trucking division senior management traveled to Seattle and Tacoma to meet with the terminal operators. Based on those meetings and lessons learned over the past few months, Portland Container has come up with a two-pronged approach in addressing the issue of congestion.  Our solution puts in place a temporary $125 congestion charge for all containers in-gating or out-gating from Terminal 18 and all Tacoma terminals, as well, as an $75 express fee for import containers at T-18, read on for more detail. These charges will become active for all import shipments out-gated and all export shipments in-gated on or after June 19th, 2017.

At terminal T-18 and for import loads only, we are offering the option of either pulling by container number or using their Peel Off Pile system. For clients who require their containers to be pulled by number, or have very specific time windows we will be instating a $75 express charge. Clients wishing to avoid the $75 fee can opt into our Peel Off Stack. To opt-in, you must transmit your delivery order to Portland container three business days before the vessel is scheduled to arrive and note on your delivery order that you wish to opt-in. Containers for clients who do not opt-in to the Peel Off Pile program will be stacked in the crane row at T-18 and you will automatically charged the express fee.

How the Peel Off Pile Works

  • The terminal operator will cluster containers specified by Portland Container into a single stack.
  • Portland Container will out-gate the containers based on the stack order, not specified order. (Once the container is in a Peel Off Stack we cannot pull by number)
  • A delivery appointment is scheduled once the container is out-gated.
  • Once the container is Out-gated Portland Container will pull the container to our secure yard in Portland, OR or direct to the delivery location.
  • Portland Container will mitigate, within reason, chassis charges for the time between out-gate and delivery. (All shipments will have a minimum of 3 days chassis, one day for the terminal to Portland, one day for the delivery, one day for Portland back to the terminal.



Because of the nature of how Peel Off Piles work, once a container is in a pile, Portland Container cannot expedite transit times, pull by number, or schedule delivery until the container is out-gated. By indicating you would like to participate in the Peel Off Pile program you agree to possibly additional delays in the arrival of your container at the end destination.


If you don’t indicate that you wish to participate in the Peel Off Pile program at T18, you will be charged both $125 congestion and a $75 express fee starting June 19th, 2017.

 

Our operations team will be closely watching what is going on with the terminals and reviewing the need for the congestion charge every week. We will send an update each week letting you know if the terminal congestion charge will be in place the following week. We have created a special mailing list just for this purpose. If you opt out of this mailing list, it will not prevent you from receiving our general announcements regarding service interruptions, FSC charges, etc. Portland Container will continue to work hard to ensure that we meet your needs and keep costs reasonable while maintaining our ability to provide you with the service you have come to expect. We appreciate your business, support, understanding, and hope that our split solution and commitment to communicate every week communicates and demonstrates our desire to keep your impact is small as possible.
