How and why is per diem charge implemented? Per diem charges exist because it is important for ocean carriers to stay on schedule and to do that they need their containers in circulation not sitting somewhere holding a shipper's goods. Thus, per diem charges discourage importers from storing containers for an extended period of time. How much are per diem charges? Per diem charges vary by carrier and port, but they normally range between $100 and $250 per day for each container. What happens if you need to keep storing cargo? The best way to store cargo without incurring per diem charges is to have your cargo offloaded and stored at a warehouse. While warehousing isn’t free, it will be significantly cheaper than per diem charges and will allow the trucker to return the container to the carrier in time. How much does per diem cost?
