To ensure the continued provision of high quality services and sufficient capacity to cater for our customer requirements, Maersk Line is implementing the next phase of our recovery program with effect from 1st October 2014.
Freight rates for US origin cargo i.e. from United States East Coast, West Coast and Gulf Coast to Australia and New Zealand will increase for both Dry and Reefer containers, as follows:
USD 250 per 20′ container
USD 500 per 40′ container
USD 150 per 20′ container
USD 300 per 40′ container
This rate increase is a reflection of the current unsustainable rate levels that will not allow shipping lines to continue offering their current service portfolio.
Please make contact with you assigned customer solutions representative if you have any questions.
