GCT Deltaport

GCT Canada · Vancouver · CAVAN

Rail dwell dominates Vancouver. Before disputing anything, confirm whether the clock running is the carrier tariff or the terminal storage tariff — the defences are different.

Which clock is whose

Terminal storage at Deltaport is separate from carrier demurrage, and most Canadian filings count working days rather than calendar days.

Gate & appointments

Appointment gate with a large on-dock rail operation; rail dwell dominates the dwell profile.

Chassis

Trucker-owned chassis are the norm in Canada, so detention economics differ from the US.

What is usually reversible

Working-day counting means weekends and statutory holidays should not consume free time — recount the days before paying.
