What changes

A more specific container workflow for this team.

Demurrage and detention basics

Demurrage usually relates to containers staying too long at a terminal. Detention usually relates to containers staying too long outside the terminal before return.

Why manual tracking raises risk

When teams miss arrivals, holds, discharge, rail movement, or delivery changes, containers can sit longer than expected and become harder to prioritize.

How alerts help

CargoScope helps teams watch for delay and exception signals so they can prioritize containers before risk becomes more expensive.

Understand demurrage exposure

Follow the milestones that drive dwell exposure—from discharge and availability through pickup and empty return. Confirm terminal free time and tariff terms before acting on a cost estimate.

Before and after

From scattered checks to shared shipment context.

Before CargoScope

  • Arrival, discharge, and free-time signals are easy to miss during busy days.
  • Cost risk often lives in memory until it becomes an escalation.
  • Teams need to verify terminal and carrier rules while still prioritizing earlier.

With CargoScope

  • Delay and free-time context stays attached to the container record.
  • Teams can prioritize containers before risk becomes more expensive.
  • CargoScope avoids unsupported fee math while surfacing operational risk.

Workflow note

The alert context helps the team know which boxes deserve attention before free-time pressure turns into a scramble.
