Created in 2007, New Orleans Terminal was planned to be the most advanced marine terminal in the Port of New Orleans. As the years passed, we have kept pace with the latest technology, equipment, infrastructure and services to maintain the ever-changing operational requirements of our customers. As vessels expand capacity, New Orleans Terminals has adapted itself to quickly and expeditiously deliver consistent, professional and seamless service.
As with all maritime facilities in the city, New Orleans Terminal is located along the Mississippi River at Napoleon Avenue. It is the single operator for the N.O.T. Container Facility, the N.O.T. Container Freight Station and the New Orleans Intermodal On-dock-Rail Ramp. The Terminal is ninety acres with a capacity of 366,000 TEUS. It has over 300,000 FT2 warehousing space, 335,000 FT2 open support land and a container marshalling yard of 45+ acres. The terminal has an on-dock rail and is located within close proximity of the six, Class 1 rail lines that intersect New Orleans.

Intermodal Rail Access
From ship to shore to rail, we keep your cargo moving
The New Orleans Terminal plays host to six Class 1 Rail Lines: CN, CSX Transportation, Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railroad, Union Pacific Railroad, Kansas City Southern Railway and Norfolk Southern Corp. With the formation of the New Orleans Intermodal rail ramp, conveniently located adjacent to the container marshaling yard, a “True” On-Dock-Rail facility was created to expedite direct movements of intermodal cargoes (inclusive of overweight shipments) direct to vessel yard stacks. This eliminates the trucking transport from ramp to terminal.
