How many times have you left your container on the port, and how much has that cost you?
In an industry that already operates on wafer-thin margins, unmanaged detention freight can hurt your bottom line.
Waiting at the port, customer sites, or for fumigation also eats into your fleet’s efficiency. Now you can easily set flexible time allowances and let the system handle this for you.
How much income aren’t you generating because your data isn’t synced? How much time is your driver waiting to unpack a container? And how do you add those charges?
Our TMS is an easy-to-use, automated solution that will keep your costs in check.
Say goodbye to costly mistakes and the tyranny of spreadsheets
No more spreadsheets or manual errors. Easily set detention freight controls for customers, shipping lines and consignees.
Capture and charge demurrage
You can’t control a customer’s unloading time, but you can set up time allowances and have the system enforce them for you. With geofence status updates, customer alerts, and auto-applied charges, you can ensure you’re always compensated for exceeding time limits and poor fleet utilization.
Custom alerts
Keep on top of demurrage. Send automatic notifications to customers when they’re approaching their time allowance limit and when the costs will be applied.
Reporting and analytics
Set up customized reporting across a range of metrics to better inform your decision-making.

“In terms of demurrage costs, we’re able to adequately convey that to our customers. With instantaneous reporting and automatic downloads sent out every morning, it removes the ability for ongoing excuses like “This person didn’t provide the documentation” or “That person didn’t send it.” It’s always there in Freight Tracker, clearly showing when a document is missing, preventing us from collecting a container from the wharf.”
