Chassis Shortages at the Port of Los Angeles – Long Beach

It has been reported that a serious chassis shortage is occurring at the Port of Los Angeles – Long Beach.  The lack of available chassis has led to truckers being unable to pick up containers prior to the last free day resulting in demurrage charges.  It is suspected by trucking companies and terminal operators that some beneficial cargo owners may be hoarding chassis. This “street dwell time” results in equipment sitting in warehouses longer than usual, creating an artificial shortage of chassis in the supply chain.
