由 lltx1822 Sea Shipping to Canada: Suggestions on Choosing Winter Delivery Ports
The Canadian government stipulates that for goods to the east coast of the country, it is best to deliver them at Halifax and St. John’s in winter because these two ports are not affected by freezing. The east coast of Canada has cold winters, and some ports may freeze, affecting ship berthing and cargo loading and unloading. Choosing Halifax and St. John’s as winter delivery ports can ensure the timeliness and stability of goods transportation. Shippers and freight forwarders, when planning transportation routes and delivery times, should fully consider this factor, communicate with shipping companies in advance, and book appropriate shipping schedules and calling ports. Ignoring the problem of port freezing in winter may lead to ship delays, cargo detention at the port, increasing transportation costs and trade risks.
