Bulk Cargo

STRENGTH IN DIVERSITY

Port Tampa Bay's diverse cargo mix is one of the key advantages of Florida's largest cargo port.

Shippers, freight forwarders, 3PL's and manufacturers alike are all looking for new, faster, cheaper and better alternatives to deliver their products to their market. With our expanded infrastructure and intermodal capabilities they're now looking at Port Tampa Bay.

Port Tampa Bay is the largest and most diverse port in Florida, serving the 10th largest economy (Tampa Bay/Orlando I-4 corridor) which is now the 3rd largest state in the U.S. We handle a wide variety of break bulk cargoes including steel, forest products, bagged cement and fertilizers, not to mention our expanding container, Ro-Ro and bulk business. 

With an abundance of land and intermodal infrastructure improvements, Port Tampa Bay has steadily increased its capacity and created innovative ways to bring break bulk and other products to market.

AMPLE CAPACITY

In addition to nearly 500,000 square feet of warehouse and transit shed capacity, our general cargo docks feature more than 6,000 feet of linear berth and close proximity to the port's container terminal with 5 Gantry cranes and a Gottwald mobile harbor crane.

Port Tampa Bay's newly expanded capabilities include a dedicated ramp to the interstate highway system. Coming soon, a new terminal under construction will add approximately 20 acres of laydown activity and 1,000 feet of linear berth.
