The Port of Detroit is known to be the largest seaport in the state of Michigan because of its 80 acres of land area and it has different terminals in Detroit, River Rouge, and Ecorse. Some of the marine terminals in this port belong to the private sector in which they have the authority to operate and manage it according to their terms.
It is considered the third-largest steel-handling port in the nation consisting of multiple marine terminals that handle general, liquid, bulk cargo, and passengers.
This port is supervised by the Detroit/Wayne County Port Authority that is composed of five boards of directors appointed by the State of Michigan, Wayne County, and the City of Detroit. The operational funding and the day-to-day operations were being handled by these authorities, especially the executive director.
Environmental programs, assisting applications about federal grants, facilitating capital improvements are just some of the activities that need to be managed in this port. Given these things, the authorities in this port need to oversee the 29 public and private sector’s millions of tons of cargo.

Shipping your container internationally?
You will need a cargo worthy container that has passed a survey inspection. Our network of IICL certified inspectors can provide an independent survey inspection that ensures that your “shipper owned container” is cargo-worthy/seaworthy.
They will provide a one-page inspection detailing any necessary repairs and will certify that your shipping container is structurally sound and good for international shipping.
They will apply a new CSC (Convention for Safe Containers) sticker showing that your container has passed. This sticker is good for 1 year.
If your container needs repair, the certificate will be applied once the necessary repairs are made.
