Ports of Los Angeles, Lengthy Seaside To Aperate 24/7 To Ease Provide Chain Backup

Boycott China Shipping : Wouldn't want to unpack this junk(An American Disgrace),Covid 19, if they can make it ,they can ship it…
The companies operating a port terminal at LA port still aren't 24/7 , look for the terminal hours on the port website ,almost all are closed Saturday and all Sunday..and if you wanna get really miffed check out the companies exit gate live cams..zero to 2 trucks leaving at a time and hours in between.
Appears these companies aren't moving their shipments if that's the case and it's a chassis issue ,an only 2011+ truck on port issue or a space issue they are multimillion companies either buy the equipment to run efficiently or get fined for containers sitting past a certain amount of days, easy fix.
if we all just did our homework and complied and worked together during this pandemic then maybe we’d be back to normal by now…
Badness sitting there lying to you right your face
They try to blame everything on the pandemic
Products that are made in America don't have problems waiting to get into port
Long Beach Port workers are doing a fine job of convincing the public that automation is the only solution.
Why don't we make at least some of the stuff coming from China ourselves? I know Americans don't want to do certain jobs but do they not want to do ANY job?
This is what happens when you go Union. lol. Yeah you can have them work 24-7, but you still have the same lazy workers working at their own pace.
Anyone ever wonder how much of US 'GDP' is just markup on Chinese imports?
Looks like there on a Strike !!!
Where the heck is Newsom!?
Shortage of BLUE collar workers because their parents watched Fox News and failed to raise them.
10 million 20-30 year olds living in their Trump parents basement and not filling Blue collar jobs.
I wonder how many American jobs are on those ships at all the U.S. ports. Those ship represent how many jobs have gone abroad to make thing we use. There is nothing wrong with trading with other countries but what's missing is the info on product made in the USA waiting to go abroad, where are the photos of backed up goods waiting to be shipped, hmmmm.
Bro I just want a graphics card
Mick mouse stuff. I could have my Chinese crew in there . Fix your small problem in no time. Quit playing around boys.
I own a trucking company and deal with the port on a daily basis. The issue is not the lack of trucks or drivers. The issue is the fact that the ocean carriers are not willing to take more empty containers back to China.
If there was a lack of trucks, why is there a line of trucks waiting to get into the port? There should be no lines of trucks waiting if there were no trucks!
A driver waits all day to take an empty container to the port. The port is not taking empty containers back fast enough.
The less empty containers there are in China, more money the vessel lines make.
The lower the supply of empty containers in China, the greater is the demand for containers.
Now the government will charge $100 per day up to 9 days then increase the fee by $100 per day.
The government is NOT helping with the situation; they are encouraging the port to slow down so they can make more money with the fees.
We pay thousands in demurrage fees caused by the port inability to issue appointments for empty containers to be returned which create the lack of chassis to take full containers out the port.
The solution is to accept empty containers without appointment and stop with the non-sense of dual transactions.
If there is no space for empty containers, then start stacking the empty containers at the airport property and release chassis to go get loaded containers out the port!
The middle of next summer! 🤯
both ports have live cams. neither are working 24/7
It’s time to bring automation to the ports of Los Angeles and Longbeach. The mundane workers at these ports are so against it for they will lose their three figure salaries for doing insignificant work.
Now imagine China stopped supplying our goods, the USA would collapse the next day. All hail our new communist overlords.
When the government has to get involved, you know that commercial management has failed, despite the lessons of the past. Problem is, the government white washes the real issues and is notoriously inefficient itself. No wonder automation is being explored.
How can the news do a story on port congestion and not reveal the specific issues causing this pileup? Instead, they just talk about how many ships are waiting offloading. Walter Cronkite is rolling over in his grave. Journalism, you have failed us….again.
Keep your foreign made crap Hope they sink ..Biden’s America make us 100% dependent on the rest of the world and everyone here has a low paying service job
Stop buying imports!
why don't they use more trains?

11/21/2021Still not happening, cranes and moorings are idle. So much for Biden's magic wand….
Hyundai hydrogen semi trucks are here for big companies who are concerned about the global warming and is used in Switzerland, Europe already
50% of air pollution will be reduced in the ports of Los Angeles
Biden is total FAILURE, this is Dec and there are more ships backed up know than when spoke his lie. BIDEN + Democrats = FAILURE and PAIN
I’m looking out the my downtown Oakland hotel window with a port of Oakland bay view and I just counted 17 ships at a stand still out there. I’m trying to catch on what the problem is now that i see it. I haven’t seen a single shipping container lifer in the 5 days I’ve been here and looking
This is why we need to BAN labor unions in America!
Do you really think the American people are that stupid hate to inform you but we are not.
