STEP 1
Check availability in eModal
ITS directs customers to eModal for appointments and advanced availability. Search the container number (for example YMLU1234567) to see whether it is discharged, released and available for pickup at ITS.
STEP 2
Use the ITS TMS for terminal detail
Account holders sign in to the ITS Terminal Management System at tms.itslb.com, the system ITS uses for gate transactions and yard positions. The TMS Login link sits in the top menu of itslb.com.
STEP 3
Book the appointment and confirm the shift
Book the pickup or delivery in eModal, then check the weekly gate schedule on itslb.com to confirm the shift is open. Grounded import deliveries end at 4:30 PM on first shift and 2:30 AM on second shift.
STEP 4
Clear charges before dispatch
ITS lets customers pay demurrage and inspection fees online. Paying at the terminal adds processing fees of $85 for demurrage and $50 for inspection on top of the charges themselves.
Before a driver brings an empty back to Pier G, check the ITS Empty Receiving Updates page. It is posted by date and shows, for each line, whether ITS accepts 20 foot, 40 foot standard, 40 foot high cube, 45 foot and special equipment on first and second shift, and whether the return must be a dual transaction. A line marked No for that size and shift will not be accepted, and the driver should return the box elsewhere as the carrier directs.
| Day and shift | Gate Hours |
|---|---|
| Monday to Friday, first shift | 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM (grounded import delivery ends 4:30 PM) |
| Monday to Friday, second shift (off peak) | 5:00 PM to 3:00 AM (ingate closes 1:30 AM, grounded import delivery ends 2:30 AM) |
| Saturday (stop work Thursdays or days without a second shift) | 7:00 AM opening, closes to trucks at 3:30 PM; duals may not be accepted after 3:00 PM |

Note: ITS posts a two week gate schedule on its home page. For the weeks of 12 and 19 October 2026 it showed first shift open Monday to Saturday and second shift open Monday to Friday. Always confirm the current schedule at itslb.com before dispatching trucks.
Free Time: Free time and demurrage terms are set by the shipping line. Verify free time with your carrier, and contact the ITS demurrage desk at (562) 590-6875 for terminal charges.
The ITS Terminal Condition Report publishes turn times for first and second shift combined. For the week before 12 October 2026 it showed single transactions of 33 to 43 minutes, double transactions of 59 to 80 minutes, and ingate queues of 4 to 6 minutes. The current week updates hourly.

Trucker Resources: Drivers need a TWIC card, which the Maritime Transportation Security Act requires for access to secure areas of maritime facilities, and an eModal appointment for the move. ITS equips each lane with a camera and barcode reader, and where OCR is installed, container, chassis and license plate numbers go straight to the TMS application.
Searches for “long beach container terminal tracking” often mean a different facility. Long Beach Container Terminal (LBCT) has its own systems and FIRMS code, covered in our guide to Long Beach Container Terminal (LBCT) tracking. Check the terminal named on the arrival notice before you search.
Forwarders moving volume through several San Pedro Bay terminals need each terminal’s status beside the carrier milestones. GoFreight’s Shipment Tracking & Operations Software for Forwarders brings tracking data from ocean carriers, railroads, terminals and AIS vessel positions into the shipment record, and the Ocean Import Freight Management Software keeps the arrival notice, customs filing and delivery order together. GoFreight reports a 53% reduction in detention and demurrage fees for its customers.
