As of mid-December 2021, there were some 101 ships waiting for berth space at the Port of Los Angeles and Long Beach. What’s more, the congestion being experienced on the US East Coast isn’t isolated to this region. Ports around the world are reporting strong congestion issues throughout 2021 with no end in sight. In talking to several terminal operators in the Ports of Los Angeles and
Long Beach, we’ve come to understand that many of them are operating at over 90-95 per cent of their terminal’s designed yard capacity, and some are even exceeding the design capacity, finding
space wherever possible to accommodate the significant overload of inbound containers.
