Additional terminal doubles capacity

From 1 October 2014, Contargo Neuss GmbH has rented a second terminal in Neuss am Rhein, thus doubling its depot capacity. The enterprise also plans further expansion at this location.

The former Rhenania terminal, later Neuss Trimodal-Terminal, which Contargo will be using from October, has an area of 26,200 m2, sufficient for up to 3,000 TEU. Together with the capacities already in use in the Flosshafenstrasse, this will increase Contargo’s total depot capacity in Neuss to 6,300 TEU. Contargo will now have a total of three cranes at four berths in the two sites. It is expected that initially 100,000 containers will be handled there every year.

“In Neuss, from now on, our customers will have service from one source at both terminals, with even more capacity”, says Jürgen Albersmann, Managing Director of Contargo Neuss GmbH. “We will be using a unified IT-System and operating with an experienced team at both sites, so operations will be integrated even better than before.”
