PierPass Fee

The PierPass Fee is a charge implemented by marine terminal operators at the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach to reduce congestion and improve traffic flow by incentivizing off-peak cargo movement through the OffPeak program.
The PierPass Fee is designed to alleviate daytime traffic congestion at major ports by encouraging the movement of cargo during nighttime and weekend hours. This fee is applied to containers moved through the terminals during peak hours, with the revenue used to offset the additional costs of operating extended gate hours. The program aims to enhance terminal efficiency, reduce truck wait times, and improve air quality by spreading out the cargo movement over a broader time frame. Shippers can benefit from reduced congestion and potentially faster turnaround times by planning their logistics to take advantage of the OffPeak program. Understanding and managing the PierPass Fee is crucial for optimizing supply chain operations and minimizing additional costs.
