CN Rail advised that free time for container storage has changed from 72 hours to 48 hours at most facilities. Affected facilities include Edmonton and Calgary, AB; Saskatoon, SK; Winnipeg, MB; and Montreal, QC. Toronto, ON (CN Brampton) remains at 24 hours. The change comes at a time when congestion is a leading concern as a result of increased demand. To avoid incurring demurrage charges, shippers should ensure their containers are picked up promptly from the rail yard. Working with a single logistics partner for Customs brokerage and freight forwarding can help mitigate the risk of demurrage charges.
