Eliminate avoidable demurrage & detention charges
Know where every container is. Get warned before free time runs out. Stop paying charges that should never have happened.
Know where every container is. Get warned before free time runs out. Stop paying charges that should never have happened.
Your forwarder says the container sat at port over a bank holiday weekend. Nobody checked. The shipping line wants £300. Sometimes £2,000. That's money you'll never get back.
It's not negligence. It's a lack of visibility. Most of these charges are avoidable — but only if someone is watching the clock. For SMEs juggling dozens of containers across different ports and shipping lines, that's nearly impossible to do manually.
No six-month implementation. No training manuals. You can be up and running today.
Enter a container number or BL reference. Takes less than a minute. No IT setup, no onboarding calls.
Standard Tonnage pulls data from shipping lines and tracks vessel arrivals, free time countdowns, and customs status automatically.
SMS, WhatsApp, or email. Your choice. Before free time expires, not after the invoice arrives.
A live walk-through of what your ops team actually sees. Built for UK importers shipping through Felixstowe, Southampton, Liverpool and London Gateway.

Everything an operations team needs to stay on top of container movements. Nothing it doesn't.
One dashboard. Every container. Vessel positions, port arrivals, customs clearance.
Each container gets a risk score based on remaining free time, customs status, and how tight the collection window is. Red means act now. Green means you can breathe.
SMS, WhatsApp, email. Not buried in a dashboard you forget to check.
Works out how many free days you have left based on your shipping line’s terms and the actual arrival date — not the ETA that was wrong three days ago.
Your ops manager, warehouse team, and procurement all see the same data. No more forwarded emails.
See what demurrage is actually costing you over time. Most importers have never seen this number. It’s usually worse than they think.
I kept hearing the same story from UK importers. A container sits at port one day too long. Nobody noticed the free time was about to expire. The shipping line sends an invoice. The ops team scrambles, but the charge has already been incurred.
Large importers have systems and dedicated teams to prevent this. SMEs don't. They have an ops manager with forty other things to do, a shared spreadsheet that's out of date by lunchtime, and a hope that someone remembers to check.
Standard Tonnage exists to close that gap. Enterprise-grade container visibility, built for small teams, at a price that makes sense.
