What is a Bobtail Fee?

A bobtail fee is a cost incurred when the trucker drops off a container at your warehouse and then returns to pick it up after it has been unloaded.

How Bobtail Fees Affect your Shipment

You can expect to pay a surcharge for the trucking company to pick up the container at a later date. You can avoid bobtail fees by doing live unloads or by having us bring another container to your warehouse.
