Port of Felixstowe Changes from VBS to Container Booking System (CBS)

by Mediateam | Jan 14, 2025 | Freight Industry News

The Port of Felixstowe has introduced its new Container Booking System (CBS) from the 1st January 2025. CBS replaces its Vehicle Booking System (VBS).

The Container Booking System is a real-time appointment system used by hauliers wishing to deliver or collect containers at the Port of Felixstowe. The simple-to-use web-based system allows hauliers to select a time for their visit, enabling the port to proactively manage customer demand, providing a faster turnaround.

In addition, each time the haulier creates a new booking, CBS checks and confirms that the customer’s details are correct, thereby greatly reducing wasted journeys and expense caused by incorrect information

The Port has announced that to provide haulage partners a period of adjustment to the new system parameters, there will be no charging for Late Notification Period (LNP) changes, or peak time bookings during January.

Charges for Guaranteed Bookings and No Shows will still apply, with invoicing & collection for January applied as normal in February. The new charges will apply from February 1st, with invoicing in March.
