Port coverage
A large, growing carrier network ready to pick up containers when timing is tight.
Drayage
Drayage Services
Every day a container sits at the terminal, the demurrage clock runs against you. Fello moves your boxes from vessel to door with carriers who show up when timing is tight, and you hear about slips from us first.
Drayage done right
Efficient, hands-on port-to-door drayage
Drayage is a short move with expensive failure modes: missed terminal appointments, rolled containers, demurrage and per diem stacking up. We manage the timing tightly so your boxes clear and roll.
A forest products trader came to us juggling four freight vendors and writing off demurrage as a cost of doing business. They're down to one vendor, and we recovered the charges they'd written off.
From the port to your door
Drayage is the short-haul move that bridges the water and the road, and it is where projects stall when a partner drops the ball. We stay heavily involved so your containers keep moving.
Efficient processes
We hunt for efficiencies at every step so containers clear and roll without the usual friction.
Solid relationships
Strong carrier and port relationships mean coverage you can count on and support that answers.

How we run drayage
The habits that keep containers out of trouble
Demurrage and per diem are lost by inches, an appointment missed here, a box left at the rail yard there. These are the behaviors that protect your money.
01
Pre-Pull Strategy
When delivery can't happen inside free time, we pre-pull the container to a near-port yard, so you pay a modest yard fee instead of the terminal's demurrage rate.
02
Appointment Discipline
Terminal appointments are booked the moment your container shows available, and we confirm the driver the day before. Missed slots are how boxes roll to the next day.
03
Per Diem Monitoring
We track every container's last free day for equipment return and push empties back before the clock starts, then audit the invoices when a charge shows up anyway.
