CMA CGM container tracking — what the delay is costing you

Tracking tells you where the box is. It never tells you what it is about to cost. Enter a CMA CGM container number and your discharge port to get the last free day and the dollar exposure of every day past it — carrier demurrage, detention and, where it runs separately, terminal storage.

CMA CGM bills demurrage and detention as separate clocks at Los Angeles / Long Beach. Discharge; combined tariffs run one clock from discharge to empty return.

Market-typical per-diem for this region, escalated through the published band structure. Your service contract or the carrier filing overrides it — we verify against the actual tariff on a free audit.

We’ll send this calculation and an alert before your last free day. One field, no account.

The CMA CGM gotcha

APL and ANL bills of lading are filed separately — a group-brand booking rated on the CMA CGM schedule is mis-rated.

Already been billed by CMA CGM?

A charge that does not serve an incentive purpose, or an invoice missing required elements, is disputable. Send three recent invoices and one bill of lading and we return a written leak report in 48 hours — free, no contract.
