Asset Use:

Your time period to load/unload railcars depends on the type of commodity shipped. Allowable times are listed below with demurrage charges:

Railroad Provided Cars & Private Cars on BRR Track:

• Loading: 1 day
• Unloading: 2 days
• Demurrage: $85 per car each calendar day

Railcars containing Dangerous Goods & Hazardous Materials (excluding TIH/PIH):

• Loading: 1 day
• Unloading: 1 day
• Demurrage: $250 per car each calendar day

For example, if BRR places a rail car for loading on Tuesday (placement at any time on Tuesday), the free day will be Wednesday (one calendar day) and demurrage will start to be charged Thursday if the car is not loaded and released.

If BRR places a car for unloading on Tuesday (placement at any time on Tuesday), the free days will be Wednesday and Thursday (2 calendar days) and demurrage will start to be charged on Friday if the car is not empty and released. For Dangerous Goods &Hazardous Materials rail cars, demurrage would begin on Thursday, in this example.
