摘要: This report assesses the development of a pooled chassis strategy for the Southern California goods movement sector - focusing on the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach - and its implications for urban and regional freight mobility. In the wake of decisions by ocean carriers to divest themselves of inter-modal chassis, and as a result of increasing demand for chassis because of rising trade volumes and larger vessels calling at Southern California ports, the goods movement industry has experimented with alternative strategies for equipment management. One such strategy involves the establishment of a chassis pool involving three third-party equipment managers that operate their own independent pools in and around the San Pedro Bay. Under this model, truckers may obtain equipment from one of the three providers for use at marine terminals at both ports. The strategy has come to be known as the “pool of pools.”
