Storage of empty containers and empty trailers

Article 22: The empty containers or empty trailers stored in the terminal, are subject to a storage fee as per the following formula :

Each agency will benefit of 7 days, free storage period on empty containers.
Based on the above free storage period, the number of empty containers subject to free daily storage, will be calculated as per the following formula :

D = A x B / C

The characters referred to :
A : Number of full Teus discharged at the port consigned to the agency during the previous month.
B : 7 days ( free period ).
C : 30 days ( days of the month ).
D : Number of Teus subject to free daily storage.
The empty Teus over the above daily average will be subject to a storage charge of US$ 1.5 per Teu per day, while twice the number of the above daily average will be subject to a storage charge of US$ 3 per Teu per day.
In case the daily number of Teus does not exceed “D”, the agency will not benefit of any compensation on coming days.
The storage charge will be calculated and collected at the end of each month.
