Maersk revises North America charges

Maersk has announced an increase in rates from Pakistan, United Arab Emirates (UAE) and the Indian Sub-Continent to the US and Canada, due to unstable market conditions affected by the Covid-19 crisis.

At the same time, the Danish line has announced an update to its North America Dangerous Cargo Service (inland haulage import) and Origin Dangerous Cargo Service (inland haulage export) surcharges.

Effective 1 June 2020, for any hazardous/dangerous commodities loaded in tank containers moving on the Canadian National Railway, these surcharges will be increased to US$350 per container.

“This increase is necessary for cost recovery, as Canadian National Railway has implemented a surcharge applicable to hazardous Tank containers due to the lack of ability to double-stack them on the rail,” said Maersk Line.

The shipping carrier adds that for any non-hazardous and hazardous tanks moving on other railroads, and all dry and refrigerated cargo moving on Canadian National Rail, the surcharges will remain at US$250.
