With a potential strike at the Port of New York-New Jersey scheduled for October 1, shippers are urged to prioritize picking up import cargo by September 30. After this date, the terminals will no longer accept cargo, and export shipments must be loaded onto vessels beforehand. Since they won’t be monitored post-strike, special attention must be given to hazardous and refrigerated materials. Shipping partners should coordinate closely with their ocean carriers and take prompt actions to avoid disruptions.
