          There had been predictions that the severe container shortage, which has lasted for months, might be coming to an end, with the Chinese New Year marking a turning point.

          The latest situation is that although the supply of containers is increasing, but considering the quarantine regulations for returning home during the Spring Festival, the drivers are more willing to return home in advance. At present, there are boxes but no one to transport is the new problem.

          It is understood that as of January 28, 2021, a large number of drivers have returned home for the Spring Festival, resulting in a sharp decrease in the transport capacity of Shanghai Port and Ningbo Port that can normally do trailer business.

          There are few idle cars in the parking lot on Jiangdong Road in Shanghai, for example, but now, as a large number of drivers have returned home, the number of cars in the parking lot has increased significantly.

          For shippers and freight forwarding enterprises, they were worried about the lack of boxes before, but now they may be worried about whether to put the boxes or not. What if there is no one to transport the boxes?

          Truck collection transportation is an important link of the freight chain, and the driver of truck collection is indispensable. When drivers are in short supply and equipment sheets are only valid for a few hours, it will be a cold game!

          In addition, the slow pick-up process is also a major problem, which can be caused by a number of reasons.

          *First, the current container trucker shortage, the average to increase per person's business volume. If the previous business is abnormal, it will delay the subsequent business process.

          *Second, the container logistics environment is difficult. The premise of carrying a box is to have a box to carry, but the reality is often difficult to find a box, card drivers can only make frequent appointments in the yard or port area, waiting hard.

          *Third, the current shipping date is unstable, which accelerates the temporary overloading of unloaded containers in the storage yards of Shanghai Port and Ningbo Port, resulting in expensive unloaded containers, difficult pick-up and slow entry. This further slows down the process of picking up a driver's suitcase.
