Demurrage, detention and storage tariffs are set by each carrier, terminal and contract and change frequently. The preloaded figures are editable industry-typical examples, not quotes — always verify against the current published tariff or your service contract before paying or disputing an invoice.
The Port of Valencia is the busiest container port on the Spanish Mediterranean and a key western-Med transshipment hub. When an import container overstays its free time here, the carrier's demurrage clock prices every extra day in escalating tiers — this calculator reproduces that math for Valencia pickups so the invoice never surprises you.
About Port of Valencia Demurrage Calculator
High transshipment share means relay boxes dominate the yard — import availability notices can lag discharge when exchanges are large. The preloaded example uses 5 free days and tiers of €90×4d, €145×4d, €225+ — realistic for this gateway but deliberately editable, because your service contract or the terminal's current schedule is the only tariff that counts. Use it three ways: before vessel arrival, to budget worst-case dwell; at the last-free-day decision point, to price one more day of waiting against premium drayage; and after the invoice, to audit the carrier's day count and tier application line by line. Most recovered demurrage money comes from that third pass.

Frequently asked questions
How much demurrage would a container at Valencia owe after 11 days?+
Under the preloaded example (5 free days, then €90 for 4d, €145 for 4d, €225 after): 6 chargeable days = 4 × €90 + 2 × €145 = €650 per container. Your tariff's actual brackets may differ — edit the tiers to match before relying on the figure.
What triggers the demurrage clock at Valencia?+
Carrier tariffs key the clock to discharge or availability, and at Valencia the distinction matters during heavy vessel exchanges when availability notices lag the crane. Compare the notice timestamp on your arrival notice with the invoice's day one — mismatches there are the easiest demurrage dollars to recover.
When does free time actually start at Valencia?+
For imports, from availability/discharge per your carrier's Spain tariff — but in big transshipment exchanges the availability notice can lag physical discharge by a day. The notice timestamp, not the crane move, is what your free time should run from; compare both before accepting day one of the invoice.
Does this calculator cover detention (per diem) too?+
The math engine handles any free-time-plus-tiers structure, so yes — switch the inputs to your detention free days and per-diem tiers and it prices the after-gate-out leg identically. Just don't mix the two tariffs in one calculation; carriers bill them as separate line items with separate clocks.
