Dutch-owned container line Samskip is introducing a pre-Brexit surcharge due to an expected surge in shipments before the presumed UK exit date of 29 March.
The pre-Brexit peak volume fee is EUR 243 ($279) per load up to 1 April.
This will be applied to anything above the average weekly volumes moved with Samskip in 2018 by each customer.
An unspecified free weekly allocation will also be offered during February and March, however.
