The lack of chassis in the Port of Oakland is causing unmatched complications for the port’s ecosystem.
In many cases, shippers pay a fee for a chassis in their ocean contact but must find an alternative because of the lack of available equipment.
In recent months, TraPac has closed its chassis pit due to constraints. With no remedy for this use, stakeholders are looking for innovative solutions to manage the chaos.
