Everything else in this article is labeled domain education, never company terms. Free time is the window a container may sit before charges begin; the last free day ends it. Demurrage is the charge for container time at the terminal, billed per container per day and escalating the longer the box sits. Detention — per-diem — is the parallel charge for container time outside the terminal, and its clock stops when the empty is returned. Port storage is a separate terminal charge again. Chassis are pool-managed, shortages happen, split fees are possible, and tri-axle chassis enter the picture for heavy boxes — variables a transload plan works around, with the job quoted per job. The FMC 2024 billing rule governs who may be billed for demurrage and detention, what an invoice must show, and the window for disputing one.
