Used containers at La Spezia: the Ligurian terminal with a rail target
La Spezia is the second Ligurian port on this site after Genoa, and its main container terminal publishes a clear aim: to raise the share of its container traffic moving by rail from a current average of 33 percent to 50 percent. A request for this port starts from that rail focus.
A terminal described by its operator
Contship Italia lists 986 metres of quay for containers, a water depth of 15 metres and a yard that stores 28,000 TEU. We use these numbers only to describe where a unit stands; they do not say what is available.
Rail first, road second
With a third of its traffic on rail and a stated aim of half, the terminal is built around trains. A lot at La Spezia that a buyer in the Po valley or beyond wants to collect may leave by rail, so we ask for the intended route and the date the unit can be released before a lot is proposed.
La Spezia next to Genoa and Livorno
Genoa and Livorno have their own pages, and a request naming La Spezia can be set against them by distance. For a buyer in Emilia or Lombardy the nearer lot wins unless condition says otherwise, and the reviewer sees all three.
Owners and buyers
Owners describe the container type, quantity and condition and say whether a local sale is permitted. Buyers register what they need, how many and how far they can collect. A lot is shared only when it fits and its owner has agreed.
