About This Seaport
Roughly 160 kilometres inland on the Columbia River, Portland gives ocean vessels deep-water access from the Pacific into the industrial interior of Oregon. The port ranks among the West Coast's leading gateways for automobiles, handling about 329,639 vehicles in 2025 on RoRo services in both directions. Grain is central too: Terminal 5 houses a rapid-loading elevator run by Columbia Grain, alongside a potash export facility operated by Canpotex. The multipurpose Terminal 6 manages containers, autos and breakbulk, with Harbor Industrial running the new Oregon Container Terminal since the start of 2026 and aiming to double container volumes from roughly 86,400 TEU in 2025. Common exports include hay, animal feed, agricultural commodities and wood and paper products, while auto parts and consumer goods move inbound. Of about 15.5 million tonnes handled in 2025, bulk minerals and grain dominate. On-dock rail, road and Columbia River barge connect the terminals to the wider hinterland. For high-volume container traffic, Seattle and Tacoma remain the larger Pacific Northwest options.
