New York,NY,USA -The Journal of Commerce Online, by Bill Mongelluzzo -Jun 20, 2009: -- A trucking association leader in the New York area warned members Friday they could face higher charges because of Maersk Line’s decision to start a nationwide chassis pool... The ocean carrier “should have discussed this program with non-controlled motor truckers before they announced it,” Jeff Bader, president of the Association of Bi-State Motor Carriers, wrote in a letter urging members in New York and New Jersey to contact Maersk with their concerns... The world’s largest container line, Maersk has a fleet of 90,000 chassisa and said Thursday it will make 5,000 available to drayage companies, ocean carriers, marine terminal operators and railroads in New York and New Jersey. Eventually, all of the assets will be available for lease in a nationwide chassis pool... Bader said harbor truckers not designated for store-door moves will therefore have to pay a rental charge “and some maintenance”... Bader said, “It is common practice in the Port of New York and New Jersey for the lines to supply chassis with the containers at no charge.”...

Wow! The link to the story is broken and it looks like JOC pulled the story! Glad you excerpted as much as you did. Looks like Maersk might just be rethinking their new chassis pool model, so much so that they *MAYBE* "influenced" JOC to suppress the story. See if you can find more info on this.
