What demurrage really costs a mid-size forwarder
A test post from the end-to-end run.
Demurrage is the fee a carrier charges when a container sits at the terminal past its free days. For a forwarder moving 400 containers a month, a two-day slip on ten percent of them adds up fast.
Harborlight sends an alert the day before free time runs out, so the operations lead can book the truck in time.
