CargoFlowPlus
Demurrage and Free Time Calculator for Containers
A quick demurrage estimate helps teams understand whether a shipment is merely late or already becoming expensive.
- Estimate chargeable days after free time
- Model exposure across multiple containers
- Use live tracking to monitor the shipments behind the estimate
The calculator is only the starting point
Demurrage exposure depends on discharge timing, free time, daily charge levels, pickup delays, customs holds, terminal status, and carrier rules. A simple estimate helps frame the risk, but live shipment evidence decides when action is justified.
Free time needs operational context
Teams need more than a deadline. They need to know whether the shipment has arrived, discharged, been released, can be picked up, or needs manual review before committing transport.
CargoFlowPlus connects risk to action
The platform keeps pickup windows, ETA confidence, discharge signals, and return timing visible together so operators can see which containers are ready, risky, or still too uncertain.
How CargoFlowPlus handles it
- Estimate the exposure: Enter containers, free time, daily charge, discharge date, and planned pickup date.
- Track the live shipments: Use CargoFlowPlus to monitor the shipment signals that change the estimate.
- Prioritize the queue: Focus on containers where pickup or return timing can still prevent avoidable cost.
Is this demurrage calculator a final invoice calculation?
No. It is a planning estimate. Actual demurrage, detention, storage, and terminal charges can vary by carrier, port, contract, customs status, and local rules.
How does CargoFlowPlus help after the estimate?
CargoFlowPlus tracks live shipments, ETA confidence, pickup timing, discharge context, and return windows so teams can act before exposure turns into avoidable cost.
