Container Shipping
Container on barge service is temporarily suspended. However, starting in Jan. 2018, the Port of Portland announced that Swire Shipping will begin offering container and general cargo service at the port’s Terminal 6. Hopefully, the resumption of container service at Portland will lead to the return of container on barge service on the Columbia-Snake River System. Please contact Kim, Port of Lewiston Traffic Manager at 208.743.3209 to inquire about container shipping status.

Container barge service began on the Columbia River in 1975 with an average of 50 containers per month barged into the Port of Portland. In 1978 the Port of Lewiston began shipping containers on barge, moving a total of 507 TEUs for the year.
