DON’T MISHANDLE YOUR DRAYAGE IN LOS ANGELES

Supply chain shipping issues have always been a hurdle to deal with, and—if there’s anything that the 2020 pandemic taught all of us—those issues can quickly turn into a chaotic mess that results in millions of dollars lost to improper communication and drayage mistakes.

While your freight is stored safely on a ship, you can rest easy knowing there’s not much to do other than wait for it to hit its destination. But as a freight forwarding company, you need to get it to the warehouses the moment the ship pulls into port.

Failing to do so can result in days of delays and thousands of dollars in fines.

We don’t need to tell you that drayage gets complex. You understand that your task is to make sure shipping your containers goes smoothly. When it goes poorly, it can eat up whole days of your focus as you figure out the best way to resolve your sudden supply chain issues.

Instead of scrambling to line up trucking vendors who are already overwhelmed with increasing volumes, eliminate the stress and headache by choosing ITG Transportation Services to help secure your first and last mile in shipping.

FIRST AND LAST MILE SHIPPING IN LOS ANGELES

Los Angeles has grown over the last 40 years to become a shipping monolith. In 1981 annual TEU counts numbered around 475,000. In 2021 they measured in at over 10 million TEUs worth of containers. That’s an enormous volume that—thanks to the shipping issues since the 2020 pandemic—has created months-long delays and stacks of containers waiting to be picked up.

The City of Angels is home to the United States’s busiest container port complex and acts as the primary gateway for waterborne trade between the United States and Asia. As a freight forwarding company, you already know that it stands as one of the more important ports on both American continents.

Not only that, but Los Angeles is also host to major railways that help ship freight out to mainland warehouses and, vice versa, ship freight in from major hubs in the southeast and along the east coast such as Dallas, Atlanta, and even New York.

LOS ANGELES’S MAJOR VOLUME

Los Angeles stands as a premier opportunity for anyone in the transportation industry. Its port and rail access allows for international clients to access practically anywhere in the United States. That means you might be acting as the middleman to literally thousands of tons of goods going everywhere around the world when you work with LA ports.

GETTING YOUR SHIPMENTS WHERE THEY’RE GOING WITH ITG

Handling your shipping details around all this volume means competing for time and schedules with hundreds of other businesses working with just as many trucking vendors. Conflicts and hiccups are bound to happen around such a busy port, and it pays to be prepared.

ITG HANDLES YOUR DRAYAGE HURDLES IN LOS ANGELES

Los Angeles drayage involves dozens of moving parts. Looking at just the broad strokes, you have:

Tracing container arrivals
Monitoring free time at the rail and pier
Tracking delivery milestones with state-of-the-art applications
Gathering quotes from carriers
Making port, rail, and storage appointments

It’s important to focus on that last one, especially. Failing to keep your shipping appointments not only disappoints your shipping partners and customers, but it can also incur hundreds of dollars in fees.

None of these tasks take into account the inevitable hiccups in the process from carrier capacity, delays from reshuffling, and customs clearances that go wrong due to incorrect documentation. When you’re fighting fires, it’s hard to keep it all under control and move forward without blowing your profit.

Preparing for Los Angeles drayage issues in advance requires clear preparation, comprehensive documentation, and reliable networks. The best way to reduce the risk of these delays and high costs is by making sure you have the right teams and tools to help you make your drayage process more simplified. ITG works to handle your cargo, no matter how complex, and facilitates your shipping needs so that it all goes smoothly.
