We Make Port Drayage Easy.
Whisk Logistics LLC is an asset-based logistics company located in Carson, CA. We specialize in Port Drayage with a 24/7 secure yard, private chassis and a team skilled in eliminating demurrage and per diem.
Port Drayage
On-time service with real-time reporting — that's our promise.
Across three generations we've picked up more than 1 million containers at the ports of Los Angeles & Long Beach. We've seen every appointment system change, every chassis pool shortage, every empty receiving restriction the terminals can throw.
We've built playbooks for all of them.
Moving freight since 1953, our goal hasn't changed: long-term partnerships built on exceptional service and value.
24/7 Secure Yard
Our 24/7 secure yard sits minutes from the Ports of LA and Long Beach. When your warehouse is full or your freight arrives early, we keep pulling containers — demurrage avoided.
And when empty receiving restrictions hit and your yard backs up with empties, our yard becomes your relief valve. We pull empties from your warehouse so your operation keeps moving. The moment terminals lift return restrictions, we get the empties back — per diem eliminated.
Private Chassis Fleet
We maintain a private fleet of GPS enabled chassis so our customers are not impacted by pool shortages or empty return restrictions.
Plus, chassis GPS provides an additional layer of security when your freight is in transit or staged at your warehouse waiting to be unloaded.
Demurrage & Per Diem Elimination
Demurrage starts the moment free time expires. Our 24/7 automated system tracks container availability and starts booking pickup appointments as containers are released so appointments are always within free time. Demurrage avoided.
Per diem is more challenging. Empty receiving restrictions and no empty return appointments create per diem exposure that's outside our customers' control. We deploy a multi-layer defense to eliminate per diem.
- Layer 1When single transactions are shut out, our system automatically identifies and books dual transactions instead.
- Layer 2When terminals refuse empties entirely, we request alternative return locations.
- Layer 3When alternative return locations are not available, we request the steamship lines extend free time.
- Layer 4When those requests are denied, our system captures the documentation customers need to successfully dispute the charges.
