Low channel depths now limit it to recreational craft and a small marine industrial park rather than container or deep-sea cargo. For ocean-going and customs-cleared freight, the region relies on the Port of Virginia (Norfolk), with Morehead City and Wilmington as North Carolina alternatives.","url":"https://www.freight-academy.com/en/information/seaports/hertford-port-us-hd4","markdownMirror":"https://www.freight-academy.com/api/md/seaports/en/hertford-port-us-hd4","source":null,"provider":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Freight Academy","url":"https://www.freight-academy.com"},"quickSummary":"Hertford · (UN/LOCODE: US HD4) · United States · Very Small · 1.8 m"}
