Update 1 – Severe winter weather is impacting areas in the Northern and Midwest regions of the U.S.

Severe winter weather is impacting areas in the Northern and Midwest regions of the U.S. Contingency plans are in place and, as always, our priorities are the safety and well-being of our team members and minimizing the effects of potential storms on service.
 
Operations currently affected by closures are

  • Chicago, Illinois

We have also been notified from various trucking partners of service suspensions and disruptions.  Freight moving in or through the Midwest, including ND, SD, WI, MI, IL, IN, NE, IA and MN may be impacted at this time.

Due to the evolving nature of the storm impact, some trucking terminals and ports have been or are scheduled to be closed, are already operating on a limited capacity, or are operating with limited services (such as freeze protection).
 
Additionally, freight moving into or out of impacted areas may be held in place if in the impacted areas or will be held outside of the impacted area until weather conditions improve causing delays.

DB Schenker will continue monitoring the current situation and will inform when normal operations resume.

Further updates will be provided, as available.  If specific shipment tracking information is required, please track your shipment at www.dbschenker.com/us or call +1(800) 225-5229 (5am PST to 5pm PST)
