{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"DefinedTerm","name":"Container Terminal Charge","description":"To receive, handle, store, and release containers at a port or inland terminal, the facility operator levies a container terminal charge. Rates are applied per container move and typically vary by box size (20ft or 40ft), dwell time, and any additional services such as cleaning, repair, or restuffing. Unlike port dues or wharfage collected by port authorities, the terminal charge flows directly to the terminal operator and appears as a distinct line item on freight invoices.
