Norfolk International Terminals (NIT) is a container terminal at the Port of Virginia in Norfolk.
What to watch at NIT
When the terminal and the shipping line each give a last free day, the earlier one is the one that costs you. DwellZero shows it first and reminds you before it.
How often we check
DwellZero checks each container several times a day on a schedule that follows where it is: more often while it is arriving and as the Last Free Day gets close, and less often once it is past its LFD or not yet known to the terminal. When something changes, you get an email right away, and a webhook if you have one set up. You also get a reminder two days before the LFD, the day before, and on the day.
