Empty Repositioning

Empty Repositioning, in the logistics and shipping industry, refers to the strategic movement of empty shipping containers from surplus locations to regions with a demand for these containers. The objective of empty repositioning is to balance the distribution of containers, ensuring that the equipment is available in locations where it is needed for the efficient handling of export cargo.

Efficient empty repositioning contributes to a more agile and responsive containerized shipping ecosystem, minimizing imbalances and supporting the seamless flow of cargo across global trade routes.
