When your container hits the terminal, every hour counts.

Port congestion. Carrier delays. Demurrage fees. If your container isn’t picked up in time, costs can stack up fast—and so can the frustration.


At Accurate Logistics Group, we help shippers stay ahead of port delays with fast dispatch, real-time visibility, and proactive coordination from start to finish.

Because moving freight through the port isn’t just about speed—it’s about strategy.


Why Port Strategy Matters

Port drayage is one of the most time-sensitive—and fee-sensitive—parts of the shipping process. Here’s why it matters:

  • Free time is limited. Once your container arrives, the clock starts ticking.

  • Delays at the port ripple across your entire supply chain.

  • Poor coordination leads to demurrage, detention, and storage fees that eat into your margin.


How Accurate Keeps You Ahead

We don’t wait for problems—we plan to avoid them. Here’s how:

Fast Dispatch

As soon as your container becomes available, we assign port-approved, vetted carriers—no time wasted waiting in queues.

Real-Time Visibility

Track your drayage moves from terminal release to delivery. Our Transportation Management System (TMS) provides live updates so you’re always in the loop.

Fee Prevention

We know the rules—and we stay ahead of the clock. By watching cutoff times and port schedules closely, we help you avoid detention and demurrage before they happen.

Clear Communication

You’ll never be left wondering. Whether it’s a congestion update, appointment confirmation, or delivery status—we keep you informed before you even need to ask.


What Sets Accurate Apart?

It’s not just our carrier network—it’s our system of checks, coordination, and proactive action. Every port move is planned with:

  • Strategic scheduling

  • Tight communication loops

  • Live updates through our platform

  • A focus on eliminating surprises

From container availability to final mile, we manage every step with precision.
