Receiving and Delivering Containers

Receive (FULLOUT) Container

Ensure container is fully released prior to arriving at Conley Terminal by checking the following:

• Container is Customs/USDA cleared and freight released.
• All relative fees are paid—Import Usage, Government Inspection Fee, and Demurrage.
• If an off-site government inspection is required, unit will be returning to the terminal for final clearance.
• Proper Customs/USDA documents authorizing release of container for inspection (UNCL cargo only).
• If taking delivery of an export container, have proper release authorization/documentation from the steamship line.

Deliver (FULLNO) Container

• Ensure the Export Booking Guarantee is lodged in the terminal system prior to arriving at the terminal.
• When pre-gating, use Export Lane 1, 2, or 3 in order to acquire container/cargo weights.
• Ensure the container is delivered against the correct booking number in the terminal system.
• Verify the size/type matches the booking.
• Documentation verifying the container owner may be required for containers not originating from Conley Terminal (leased units/shipper-owned).
• Hazmat cargoes must be accompanied by the IMO Dangerous Goods Declaration and a valid Dock Receipt as well as being appropriately placarded.
• Any reefer container returned with a genset must be fully functioning upon interchange or it will be refused by the terminal. Any reefer unit delivered with a temperature discrepancy between the set temperature and actual temperature at the time of delivery that is greater than the acceptable range will be refused by the terminal.
• If returning a unit from off-site government inspection, have required documents available for processing.
