The document provides information about Inland Container Depots (ICDs) and Container Freight Stations (CFSs). ICDs are dry ports equipped for handling and temporary storage of containerized cargo as well as empties closer to customer premises, and provide port services inland. CFSs consolidate or de-consolidate freight shipments and stage cargo containers between transport legs, typically near ports or airports.

CFS: CONTAINER FREIGHT STATION

A Container Freight Station is a facility where freight


shipments are consolidated or de-consolidated, and
staged between transport legs. A CFS is typically located
in proximity to an ocean, port, or airport where cargo
containers are transported to and from.
A good, trustworthy container freight station is run by
professionals who understand what it takes to safely
store and efficiently ship your products.
A container freight station is essentially a massive
warehouse where containers are stored. Typically, items
are stored in these warehouses for a shorter period while
they are waiting for their next stop in their shipment
journey.
All the activities related to clearance of goods for home
use, warehousing, temporary admissions, re-export,
temporary storage for onward transit and outright export,
transshipment, take place from such stations
