When you’re importing full container loads, ports become critical junctures where timing, costs, and downstream operations collide. That’s why 3rdwave 2.0 introduces a powerful Port of Unloading Dashboard, purpose-built to help logistics teams monitor container flows and avoid costly surprises.

In a recent demo, our CTO Josh Blinick walked through how the new dashboard delivers actionable insights right out of the box. Watch the video below, and continue reading to learn more about 3rdwave 2.0’s Port of Unloading capabilities. Have questions? Contact us.

1. Upcoming Arrivals, Visualized

At the top left of the dashboard, users will see a clear bar chart showing upcoming container arrivals, organized by arrival windows. Each bar represents the number of containers scheduled to hit the port (like Charleston) in a given time period.

Simply click a bar to drill into detailed container lists, including:

• Carrier and vessel information
• Estimated arrival dates
• Final destinations

This makes it easy to anticipate workload peaks, allocate resources, and keep stakeholders informed.

2. Containers at Port: Status at a Glance

Below the arrivals chart, the dashboard displays all containers currently sitting at the port, and exactly how long they’ve been there. This visibility helps teams track dwell times, plan retrievals, and proactively address delays before they escalate into bigger issues.

3. Demurrage & Detention Tracking

For many importers, demurrage and detention fees are persistent, frustrating costs. 3rdwave 2.0 tackles this head-on by capturing:

• Rate schedules
• Free days
• Incremental costs as they accrue

If a container moves into demurrage or detention, it appears immediately in the dashboard, so teams can take action and avoid unnecessary spend.
