Features · Port Alerts

Fetch from the port. Warn the customer.

LFD, ETA, ERD and cut-off emails, sent for you. Save the late storage fee.

Late storage and demurrage fees usually start with a date nobody saw coming. LoadPilot pulls the dates from the port, then tells your customer in time to act.

Why it matters

Less admin. Fewer mistakes.

Straight from the port

Port data is fetched directly into the container record, so the dates are the port dates, not a guess.

Four alerts, automatic

Customers get emails for LFD, ETA, ERD and cut-off. No one on your team has to remember to send them.

Money you keep

When the customer moves the box in time, you avoid late storage and demurrage fees that would come out of your margin.

What gets sent

The four dates that cost money.

LFD tells the customer when free time ends. ETA says when the vessel arrives. ERD marks the earliest empty return, and cut-off is the port deadline. One clear email for each, with the container number.

  • LFD: last free day
  • ETA: vessel arrival
  • ERD: earliest return date
  • CUT OFF: port deadline
