Maersk to Adjust Inland Transport Rates in Poland from October 2026
What Happened?
Maersk is increasing its inland transportation tariffs in Poland, effective 1 October 2026, for cargo moving via German ports and the Port of Gdansk. The rate hike affects both direct trucking and intermodal rail services, driven by rising operational, regulatory, and infrastructure costs. These cost pressures include higher labor expenses, Poland's e-TOLL system adjustments, and new CO₂-related road tolls in Germany.
