Long Beach is operating with six cargo terminals instead of the seven it had before California United Terminals left in late 2010 to move into the Port of Los Angeles. Long Beach officials said the lost terminal, which is a subsidiary of Hyundai, represented about 10% of the port's cargo traffic.
The Port of Los Angeles had its best April ever and its best month of the year. … Overall, including empty containers sent back to Asia for later use in delivering more imports, the Port of Los Angeles moved 707,182 cargo containers in April, up 14.6%.
Including empty containers, Long Beach moved 461,911 containers in April, down 13% from a year earlier. That left the combined ports with 1.2 million containers moved in April.
