CPG deblocking boxes


The USA's Container Port Group (CPG), based in Cleveland OH, has launched a new department. The group, which specialises in intermodal drayage and logistics, now has an expedited services team as part of its larger logistics unit, which already has 26 terminals. The team will focus on finding solutions to move containers that aren't easily accessible, or are otherwise detained at rail and container yards across the country.

CPG executive vice-president Mike Williams, the head of CPG's logistics and commercial activities, said that “a number of factors still make it difficult for customers to have their freight delivered on time. It could be tied up with detention and demurrage charges, overweight for a certain carrier, or perhaps be stuck on account of a lack of available chassis.”

Many providers are struggling with a lack of equipment needed to get containers moved from storage areas, or a lack of available space at the destination facility. This is where CPG Logistics' new unit wants to step in. (sh)
