Ocean container tracking

Track every container without opening a carrier portal

Track containers across shipping lines in one workspace. Follow POL, POD, vessels, transshipments, and ETA changes, and share status with your team and customers.

Add a container or bill of lading once, then follow it across vessels and ports in one place, whichever shipping line is carrying it.

One view across shipping lines

Each carrier reports tracking in its own format. CargoEnter shows container number, carrier, vessel, ports, status, and ETA in the same layout, so your team doesn’t have to relearn it for every line.

Transshipments you can actually follow

A discharge at a hub isn’t the end of the journey. The timeline separates actual, current, and expected events, and the route shows each port on the way, so an intermediate arrival isn’t mistaken for delivery.

Know when containers are at risk

Combine tracking with Last Free Day dates and tag alerts, so an arrived container that hasn’t been collected gets attention before charges start.

Frequently asked questions

Can I track by bill of lading as well as container number?

Yes. You can work from a container number or a carrier-supported bill of lading reference.

Does the container prefix tell me the shipping line?

Not always. The prefix identifies the equipment owner, and leased containers can travel with a different carrier.

Can I import many containers at once?

Yes. Shipments can be imported from CSV or Excel files.
