Over Capacity in most freight routes
By letsmoveit | February 12, 2009
What a difference a year makes. At then end of 2007 we were complaining over the difficulty in getting space on vessels. Now we have no problems. Even with shipping lines mothballing containerships there is still plenty of capacity and as a result freight rates have fallen considerably, this includes the once sky high fuel bunker surcharges. The bunker surcharges have followed the collapse in the oil price over the previous six months. This all means lower freight rates for our customers. It is just a shame that the economy in Europe and the US has gone in the same direction as oil prices. IE down!

China Container Space Shortage
By letsmoveit | July 2, 2007
With the shipping rush for Christmas 2007 due to start picking up again now we are half way through the year there is a real possibility of a meltdown on the container availability from China back to Europe. Effecting both 20foot and 40foot containers with the main problem being, simply the supply is out stripping demand. Booking times are increasing to 3-4weeks for containers and some lines are unwilling to accept large bookings because they feel they would risk compromising their service quality to the shipper. While rates are in decline for years now they are showing signs of increasing with lines implementing peak rate surcharges and other various surcharges.
