0:00Customs has released your shipment.
0:02Are you done?
0:04Not yet.
0:06After customs releases your shipment,
0:08you or your forwarder must still obtain a delivery order from the shipping line or
0:14airline,
0:15settle any outstanding terminal or carrier charges,
0:19and only then physically collect the cargo.
0:23Two charges run daily once free time expires.
0:26Demurrage is for holding the carrier's container too long at the terminal.
0:31Detention is for holding the physical container too long after it has left the
0:36terminal.
0:38So line up payment,
0:40transport and final paperwork before the free-time clock starts running, not after.
