SHANGHAI International Port Group (SIPG) has stopped charging customers to transfer import containers from the yard inside the port to another outside the port to alleviate congestion.
There are about 650,000 TEU that need to transfer between yards which once generated fees of CNY200 million (US$32.14 million), Wen Wei Po reports.
But storage and reefer fees will remain unchanged. Meanwhile, the procedures for picking up containers have also been streamlined. Customers now need to go through such procedures at the terminal for once before they can pick up boxes.
