Got a quote for a container at 4-5x our normal rate. Not even guaranteed space. Jumped on it because we have a backlog of ~15% of our ANNUAL volume waiting overseas to move.

Domestic OTR trucks awful, +60% request volume vs baseline. National program for us delivered 2 wks late despite booking and securing 6 wks in advance. Even big guys like WalMart can't get their Collect truck network to deliver on time

I have a relative who's a purchasing agent for a global chemical manufacturer. They literally cannot get products from overseas because of a shipping container shortage combined with a lack of truck drivers to haul material.pic.twitter.com/0M4ThV6sX1

Yeah I work for a packaging and supplies distributor. It's bad. Not just containers though it's labor, it's drivers, it's keeping plants online, it's gov COVID responses, it's chemical shortages.

Lowe's or home Depot, can't remember which, bought their own CARGO SHIPS to avoid shortages.

It's possible, but then I've been getting "things are about to collapse" arguments against global shipping arguments my whole adult life.

It'll never "collapse" but it sure can get insanely expensive.

We all think it’s on thin ice. Nobody can get deliveries properly right now from China. Insane prices and backlog. The question is only “is he implying it’s even worse somehow, and why?”
