What terminals at the Port of Long Beach does ITZON TRANSPORT serve?

ITZON TRANSPORT serves major Port of Long Beach terminals. The applicable terminal for a specific shipment depends on the ocean carrier and vessel assignment.

Does ITZON TRANSPORT coordinate terminal appointments for import pickups?

When a terminal appointment is required for the move, ITZON TRANSPORT can coordinate the appointment as part of the pickup process, subject to scheduling availability.

What is Last Free Day and how does it affect my import move?

Last Free Day (LFD) is the last day a container can remain at the terminal before demurrage charges begin. ITZON TRANSPORT coordinates import moves with awareness of the applicable LFD to help avoid unnecessary demurrage exposure. ITZON TRANSPORT does not set or control LFD — that is determined by the terminal and ocean carrier.

Can ITZON TRANSPORT pre-pull my container before my delivery appointment?

A pre-pull arrangement — picking up the container before the delivery appointment and staging it off-dock — may be available depending on shipment requirements and scheduling. This is not guaranteed and is subject to operational conditions.

Does ITZON TRANSPORT provide both import and export container drayage?

Yes. ITZON TRANSPORT handles both import container drayage from the Port of Long Beach and export container drayage to the Port of Long Beach from Southern California facilities.
