Container Drayage Costs Can Mount Up Fast

Costs can mount at an alarming speed when dealing with container drayage. Contributing factors include per-diem charges, flip charges, and storage fees. It is easy for companies to get in over their head quickly.

Add to that the transportation issues that afflict organizations industry-wide such as highway congestion, railway delays, chassis shortages, poor communication and software that is difficult to master.
