Almost every carrier reports severe shortages of the popular 40 ft high-cubes at their depots, and there has also been a run on 40 ft standard boxes \u2013 even finding 20 ft containers has been a real challenge. To mitigate this serious equipment imbalance, ocean carriers have started an aggressive strategy for European and U.S. exports, temporarily suspending bookings, preferring to fill backhaul ships with as much empty equipment as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Several carriers, including APL\/CMA CGM, Matson, Zim Integrated Shipping Services, and Maersk Line have been offering premium services during the surge in volumes, which guarantee customers equipment and priority loading at Asian ports, for premium freight rates as high as $2,000 per TEU. However, space is not guaranteed even though you agree to pay extra money for this premium service.<\/p>\n<p>The equipment shortage is also contributing to spiking rates on other lanes, as Asia-Mediterranean rates climbed 12 percent and Asia-Europe rates climbed 8 percent, both to multi-year highs of more than $2,400\/FEU.<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">Rates are expected to keep climbing as some carriers cancel sailings to prioritize capacity and equipment in other regions.<\/span><\/h4>\n<div class=\"essb_links essb_counters essb_displayed_bottom essb_share essb_template_metro-retina essb_439264719 print-no\" id=\"essb_displayed_bottom_439264719\" data-essb-postid=\"15355\" data-essb-position=\"bottom\" data-essb-button-style=\"button\" data-essb-template=\"metro-retina\" data-essb-counter-pos=\"insidebeforename\" data-essb-url=\"https:\/\/www.morethanshipping.com\/asia-equipment-shortages-continues-to-worsen-every-day-amid-covid-19-disruptions\/\" data-essb-fullurl=\"https:\/\/www.morethanshipping.com\/asia-equipment-shortages-continues-to-worsen-every-day-amid-covid-19-disruptions\/\" data-essb-instance=\"439264719\">\n<ul class=\"essb_links_list\">\n<li class=\"essb_item essb_totalcount_item\" data-counter-pos=\"insidebeforename\"><span class=\"essb_totalcount essb_t_l_big\" title=\"\" data-shares-text=\"shares\"><span class=\"essb_t_nb\">13<span class=\"essb_t_nb_after\">shares<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"essb_item essb_link_facebook nolightbox\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer\/sharer.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.morethanshipping.com%2Fasia-equipment-shortages-continues-to-worsen-every-day-amid-covid-19-disruptions%2F&#038;t=Asia+Equipment+Shortages+Continues+to+Worsen+Every+Day\" title=\"Share on Facebook\" onclick=\"if (!window.__cfRLUnblockHandlers) return false;
