Port of Cleveland operators are able to pass federal, state, and local benefits on to their customers who import and export cargo using FTZ procedures. Customers can take advantage of the logistical and financial benefits of using FTZ procedures for shipments which can translate into huge savings. This is a great way to keep our local manufacturers competitive vis-à-vis their foreign counterparts.
Port of Cleveland Complex located on Lake Erie at the mouth of the Cuyahoga River includes five general cargo facilities operated by port-approved stevedoring contractors. These facilities are open dock or two-berth facilities with capacity for lifting up to 150 net tons, along with direct rail access and warehousing ability. In all, the Port of Cleveland docks have approximately 6,500 linear feet of dock space, 420,000 square feet of warehouse space and 12 acres of open storage for general cargo operations.
Cleveland Bulk Terminal (CBT), located at 5500 Whiskey Island Drive, is port-owned but operated by Oglebay-Norton which handles iron ore transfers. The lakefront facility can accomodate 1,000-foot vessels used to discharge and reload rail cars.
