洛杉矶塞港,船公司收取港口拥堵费PCS 由于美国码头劳工谈判失败,工人罢工,造成如今美西港口(洛杉矶、长滩、奥克兰、西雅图、塔科马)拥堵、瘫痪的局面。这个情况短时间应该无法缓解,码头滞工一天,后续至少就要用两天的时间缓解。
1.原通知从2014.11.17到港的柜子开始收取PCS港口拥堵费。费用:USD 800/20GP、USD 1000/40GP、USD 1125/40HQ、USD 1266/45HC 2.由于在起运前未告知此费用,临时加收,FMC(美国联邦海事委员会)叫停了此收费。 3.而后,船东通知从2014.11.26起起运港入港的货柜,到美西港口后开始增收。 4.为避免码头完全瘫痪,会导致今年的感恩节和圣诞节的销售损失将会史无前例的惨重,全美零售联盟(National Retail Federation)已经心急如焚。由105个零售业业者协会联署上书美国总统奥巴马,要求联邦政府赶快指派仲裁员介入,以免情势进一步恶化。现,静观其变,希望美西码头尽快恢复以往的效率。 Dear Valued Customer, We are continuing to face challenges in our service delivery due to ongoing congestion in the U.S. West Coast, negatively impacting the terminals within our network.
