These are classified as cell-to-cell and cell-dock-cell lifts. A cell-to-cell lift occurs when a container is shifted from one location on a vessel to another location. A cell-dock-cell lift occurs when a container is moved off a vessel, placed on the dock so that other cargo may be moved, and then the container is restowed onto the vessel. A cell-to-cell move counts as one lift, and a cell-dock-cell move as two lifts. OVERSTOWS AND REHANDLES Container Box Counts In January 2000, PMA began collecting container counts by box length. Data are reported in seven different box sizes: 20, 24, 35, 40, 45, 48 and 53-foot lengths. These tables show the counts for the most common three lengths and a total for all containers. Containers are divided into two categories: Loaded and Empty. Loaded containers include assessable, those containing cargo exempt from assessments, auto-bearing containers and transshipped containers. 2015 Box Length: 20 Feet 40 Feet 45 Feet All Box Lengths Discharged Loaded Total Discharged Loaded Total Discharged Loaded Total Discharged Loaded Total % of Port TEUs Long Beach Cargo Bearing 421,098 165,426 586,524 1,489,909 633,765 2,123,674 99,059 43,244 142,303 2,016,962 842,995 2,859,957 71.9% 5,173,333 Empty 2,455 217,222 219,677 31,927 790,561 822,488 9,512 60,939 70,451 46,770 1,068,722 1,115,492 28.1% 2,030,254 TOTAL 423,553 382,648 806,201 1,521,836 1,424,326 2,946,162 108,571 104,183 212,754 2,063,732 1,911,717 3,975,449 100.0% 7,203,587 Los Angeles Cargo Bearing 440,382 161,563 601,945 1,744,930 712,778 2,457,708 110,071 38,718 148,789 2,298,949 913,059 3,212,008 71.4% 5,862,146 Empty 2,790 236,331 239,121 34,768 908,879 943,647 13,330 84,643 97,973 56,737 1,230,619 1,287,356 28.6% 2,364,548 TOTAL 443,172 397,894 841,066 1,779,698 1,621,657 3,401,355 123,401 123,361 246,762 2,355,686 2,143,678 4,499,364 100.0% 8,226,694 Oakland Cargo Bearing 146,671 101,555 248,226 332,411 368,069 700,480 21,260 14,847 36,107 500,429 484,980 985,409 75.4% 1,731,487 Empty 10,297 71,536 81,833 79,257 131,506 210,763 8,637 18,735 27,372 98,846 221,932 320,778 24.6% 566,470 TOTAL 156,968 173,091 330,059 411,668 499,575 911,243 29,897 33,582 63,479 599,275 706,912 1,306,187 100.0% 2,297,957 Portland Cargo Bearing 1,746 1,279 3,025 2,853 3,793 6,646 61 75 136 4,660 5,147 9,807 71.0% 16,626 Empty 200 1,658 1,858 120 1,966 2,086 – 59 59 320 3,683 4,003 29.0% 6,164 TOTAL 1,946 2,937 4,883 2,973 5,759 8,732 61 134 195 4,980 8,830 13,810 100.0% 22,790 Tacoma Cargo Bearing 114,095 45,946 160,041 367,170 327,294 694,464 25,019 14,605 39,624 506,284 387,845 894,129 79.8% 1,638,329 Empty 760 41,425 42,185 64,422 92,115 156,537 9,828 17,634 27,462 75,249 151,178 226,427 20.2% 417,745 TOTAL 114,855 87,371 202,226 431,592 419,409 851,001 34,847 32,239 67,086 581,533 539,023 1,120,556 100.0% 2,056,074 Seattle Cargo Bearing 68,458 38,079 106,537 195,574 173,399 368,973 9,512 3,824 13,336 273,670 217,793 491,463 76.3% 877,739 Empty 1,806 31,997 33,803 39,138 66,670 105,808 1,301 9,328 10,629 44,618 107,995 152,613 23.7% 272,264 TOTAL 70,264 70,076 140,340 234,712 240,069 474,781 10,813 13,152 23,965 318,288 325,788 644,076 100.0% 1,150,003 All Others Cargo Bearing 53,368 13,391 66,759 30,030 5,186 35,216 3,456 691 4,147 86,861 19,434 106,295 75.5% 146,753 Empty 1,569 158 1,727 3,040 27,351 30,391 82 1,206 1,288 5,677 28,727 34,404 24.5% 67,061 TOTAL 54,937 13,549 68,486 33,070 32,537 65,607 3,538 1,897 5,435 92,538 48,161 140,699 100.0% 213,814 COAST TOTALS Cargo Bearing 1,245,818 527,239 1,773,057 4,162,877 2,224,284 6,387,161 268,438 116,004 384,442 5,687,815 2,871,253 8,559,068 73.2% 15,446,413 Empty 19,877 600,327 620,204 252,672 2,019,048 2,271,720 42,690 192,544 235,234 328,217 2,812,856 3,141,073 26.8% 5,724,506 TOTAL 1,265,695 1,127,566 2,393,261 4,415,549 4,243,332 8,658,881 311,128 308,548 619,676 6,016,032 5,684,109 11,700,141 100.0% 21,170,919 % of Total 10.8% 9.6% 20.5% 37.7% 36.3% 74.0% 2.7% 2.6% 5.3% 51.4% 48.6% 100.0% – – 20 Foot (20.5%) 40 Foot (74.0%) 45 Foot (5.3%) All Others (0.2%) 2015 CELL-TO-CELL CELL-DOCK-CELL Oakland 20 13,424 Northern California Total 20 13,424 Long Beach 0 4,234 Los Angeles 72 31,780 Southern California Total 72 36,014 Seattle 0 1,608 Tacoma 137 11,722 Washington Total 137 13,330 Portland – – Oregon Total – – COAST TOTAL 229 62,768 2015 CONTAINER COUNTS BY LENGTH OF BOX All Box Lengths is the total of all containers reported including 24, 35, 48 and 53-foot containers, which are not shown in the columns to the left.
