Inland Peak Season Surcharge Implementation for Port of Genoa Road Haulage

On 28th May 2024, the Ligurian Truck Drivers’ Association (Associazioni dell'Autotrasporto Liguria) announced that it would be implementing a congestion fee for cargo trucked in and out of the Port of Genoa until further notice. The Association stated that said fee is in place to ‘guarantee the economic sustainability of transport and therefore the road safety of drivers and vehicles’.

To accommodate these additional costs presented by our vendors, secure capacity in the market and ultimately ensure a continued inland transportation service for our customers, A.P. Moller – Maersk and, therefore, all its subsidiaries and controlled companies, will be introducing an Inland Peak Season Surcharge for all export and import truck moves to and from Port of Genoa terminals (Genoa Vado Ligure Terminal is not affected and will not apply).

Please see below for full surcharge details and terms:

*PCD = Price Calculation Date. For non-FMC, PCD refers to the scheduled departure date of the first water leg at the time of booking confirmation for non-Spot bookings. For FMC, PCD is last container gate-in date for non-Spot bookings.

The charges implemented by the Association are mandatory, and at this stage there is no indication as to when they will be withdrawn. We will, of course, continue to monitor the situation and remove the Inland Peak Season Surcharge as soon as it becomes operationally feasible to do so.

We appreciate your trust and loyalty in these challenging circumstances and look forward to continuing to assist you on all matters pertaining to your logistics needs. Should you have any further questions, please contact your local Maersk professional. Our customer service and commercial teams are always available to support should you need assistance.
