Shanghai issued a gale warning! The three major terminals of Shanghai Port have suspended empty container loading and lifting operations! Please note when shipping

According to the "Shanghai Release" news, the Shanghai Central Meteorological Observatory issued a gale blue warning signal at 12:35 on December 24, 2021: Affected by strong cold air, it is expected that there will be 6-7 northerly winds in the city in the next 24 hours. Please take precautions for gusts of magnitude 7-8 in the coastal areas along the river.

The previously issued blue warning for the cold wave is still maintained. Double blue warning is hanging high!

This morning, SIPG issued the “Notice on Suspension of Empty Container Loading and Lifting Operations”, stating that under the influence of cold air transit, the wind in the port area is relatively strong. The loading and unloading operations of empty containers will be suspended at 18:00 on the 24th, and the resumption time will be announced separately. Please tell each other.

In addition, it is reported that SIPG has issued a notice a few days ago that starting from January 1, 2022, the transfer and storage fees of ordinary boxes in SIPG’s warehouse will increase significantly from the original "14 days free of stacking" to "4 days. No piles, tiered charges". The specific notice is as follows:

Please be aware of the above situation due to the sudden urgency of the notice. Make relevant arrangements in advance to avoid high storage fees.

I would like to remind you that freight forwarders who have recently shipped goods from various terminals in Shanghai Port, please pay more attention to the latest situation of the terminals.
