Container cost is one of the most important items of a container shipping company’s total costs. The basic elements of container cost include long-term capital investment and the day-to-day operations cost. Equipment supply is necessary for liner shipping companies to secure cargoes. Carriers must supply the right containers at the right time and in right place to shippers. To manage empty containers, it is necessary to have an understanding of the operations cost involved.
