Because a drayage load can mean a few different things, confusion among carriers is common. Many carriers link drayage with going into a port, but that isn't always true. While all drayage loads typically originate from a port of entry, there are often several legs of a drayage journey before a container turns up at its final stop. Legs of a drayage load may include:

Why Are Drayage Companies in Albuquerque, NM So Important?

You may be thinking, what's so important about drayage? It's such a small step in the container storage transport process. In reality, it's an integral piece needed in the logistics industry and a crucial part of U.S. supply chain management.

To truly understand the importance of drayage, let's use flowers as an example. Most cut flower shipments enter the market from areas in South America until they end up at Dutch auction houses. Once there, wholesalers purchase flowers in bulk and send those products to retail outlets worldwide. Because flowers are perishable, they typically need to be refrigerated and are often shipped in reefer containers. These refrigerated vessels must maintain a certain temp to prevent loss.

Drayage companies like RelyEx allow flower shippers to send their products from Argentinian ports to airports in the Netherlands with peace of mind because their products are protected. The only way to accomplish this feat is with the help of swift, meticulous port drayage services. Drayage companies allow flower shippers to send their products from Argentinian ports to airports in the Netherlands with peace of mind, because their products are protected. The only way to accomplish this feat is with the help of swift, meticulous port drayage services.

If port drayage is compromised, it can cause delays and even fines. You know the packages you get delivered to your front door from apps like Amazon? Without drayage and drayage brokers, one or two-day shipping times wouldn't even be possible.

As a multi-billion-dollar industry in the U.S. alone, it seems like drayage shipping issues shouldn't exist. But the fact is inefficiencies and congestion are still major problems at ports. Whether it's a lack of carriers, absent chassis, or overburdened terminals, delays lead to missed deadlines, lost revenue, and worse.

But anytime challenges exist, so too do innovative solutions.

Paperwork Errors

Typically, shippers need four specific documents to clear shipments through customs: A Bill of Lading (or BOL), a commercial invoice, a packing list, and an arrival notice. Seasoned drayage brokers like RelyEx are used to preparing these documents, but new shippers tend to miss this step due to inexperience.

Payment Delays

If a shipper only pays for part of their shipment, a vessel operator may refuse to release their freight until their bill is fully paid. Payment delays lead to cargo detention at the port of entry, which triggers demurrage charges.

QUOTE REQUEST

Documents Received Too Late

Paperwork is needed when you're shipping goods with a drayage company. When documents like the Certificate of Origin or Bill of Lading arrive at their destination late, you can expect demurrage fees. RelyEx avoids this situation entirely by being proactive when submitting paperwork.

Additional causes for demurrage fees can include:

  • Damaged Container Storage
  • Custom Released Containers
  • Storage Containers Are Too Heavy

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. —

Residents in the Montecito Estates neighborhood are afraid to leave their homes after multiple attacks from aggressive dogs.

People are asking their HOA and Animal Welfare to step up and find a solution.

"I hate feeling like a hostage in my own home," Laura Solomon said.

According to multiple security camera videos throughout the neighborhood, a tan-looking pit bull is seen attacking children.

One video shows two young boys riding scooters when the dog attacks. The boys jump off their scooters, screaming for help as they try to run back inside the home.

Another person sent photos to our KOAT newsroom of the aftermath of her dog being mauled by the pit bull.

Her medical bills totaled more than $1,400. According to Animal Welfare reports, these incidents date all the way back to May 2022.

"It's been almost a year since these dogs have gotten loose in our neighborhood and just wreaked complete havoc. Pets are being mauled or attacked. Young kids are being chased into their houses," Solomon said.

Down the street, Amanda Bearce recalls her incident when she encountered the dog after it attacked another pet in the neighborhood.

"Very bloody, like literally. And it was very creepy. He rat ran up to my husband with that big smile," Bearce said. "You knew something had to have happened because of just the amount of blood that there was. It was pretty intense. And our kids saw it too and were so freaked out by the amount of blood."

We reached out to Montecito Estates HOA. They released this statement that reads in part:

"The board of directors is aware of two incidents involving the aggressive behavior of dogs. There were no serious injuries and both incidents were promptly reported to the city of Albuquerque animal welfare department. Montecito Estates HOA has no authority to ban, seize or expel personal pets as they are the private property of their owner."

Animal Welfare says they cannot comment on the case as it's still being investigated.

When Bernadette Peters steps onto a set, she’s ready for action.

In the case of the Apple TV+ series, “High Desert,” Peters found herself with an ensemble cast many productions would be jealous of.

That’s part of what piqued her interest with the series.

“It’s so well-written and so original,” Peters says. “I haven’t read anything that was so well-written in such a very long time. I got excited about it and then of course, it has Patricia Arquette. Things can’t get better than that.”

“High Desert” follows Peggy Newman, played by Arquette, who is an irresistible, mystifying fusion of qualities.

She’s a hustler, loves easily, feels everyone else’s pain, operates under her own unique code of ethics, and possesses some interesting survival mechanisms – which is essential because Peggy is an ex-heroin junkie who now proudly calls herself a methadone addict.

Peggy lives in the Californian desert, working at a minor tourist attraction, Pioneertown, where she is part of a troupe reenacting life in the Old West. There, she is the queen bee, looked up to by her peers while always using her blazing street-smart intellect and wit to win any argument.

She is the one voice fighting for justice for those close to her, which leads her to right a wrong for a friend. In the glow of that triumph, her best friend Carol, played by Weruche Opia, suggests that Peggy’s true calling might be as a private investigator.

It would certainly bring the much-needed income Peggy needs to hold onto the house of her late mother, Rosalyn, played by Peters, before her sister, played by Christine Taylor and brother, played by Keir O’Donnell sell it.

The series also stars Rupert Friend, Brad Garrett and Matt Dillon.

New Mexico native Jay Roach directed all eight episodes.

Roach had signed on to direct only the pilot but quickly changed course because of the script.

“This was a great chance to give the audience a ride they won’t see coming,” Roach says. “They’ll feel the predicament and the stakes but most of all, it’s a ride.”

Roach took an empathetic approach with the creative vision for the series. “I had to imagine what Peggy was going through and why,” Roach continues. “Why would she get herself into this trouble? And all the while I’m doing this, I would simultaneously empathize with the audience about what they’re taking in and what matters to them. My favorite challenge is taking something that looks like it might be too chaotic and somehow make it unified and this show, Peggy in particular, feeds into that. Peggy is like a queen bee, buzzing about, pollinating her world and those in it with her almost functional-dysfunctional ADD-meets-tremendous desire to help everyone. It’s a crazy tone but that’s what I love about it.”

Peters enjoyed working with Roach at the helm because he kept the vision all the way through production.

ADVERTISEMENT

She also pulled double duty playing Rosalyn and actress Ginger, who brings another level to the story.

“Her mother is caring and beautiful,” Peters says. “Then you have (Ginger) who is totally self-involved and narcissistic. She’s not very pleasant and is all about herself. These are two very different types of people.”

Peters says she was able to get into the flow of acting and went with every scene.

“Ginger took a few days of getting into character,” she says. “Rosalyn was just a loving person and it was easy.”

Peters says the story is one that people could relate to because it’s about how we handle grief.

ADVERTISEMENT

“Peggy is looking for moments of happiness,” she says. “We’ve all lost someone special to us and it is difficult to move forward. This is a production that I needed. I think it will resonate with audiences.”

Now streaming The Apple TV+ series “High Desert” is directed by Albuquerque native Jay Roach and is streaming on Apple TV+.

Sports Desk: Pat Valaika returns to Isotopes Park wearing the uniform of the opponent

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – Former Albuquerque Isotopes standout infielder Pat Valaika has returned to the Duke City, wearing the uniform of the opponent. Valaika is in the dugout of the Tacoma Rainiers. “You know, parts of four seasons I played with a lot of really good guys, some good teams, had some good games here,” said Valaika. “You know, it’s a very offensive place, so it’s fun to come back and see the b...

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – Former Albuquerque Isotopes standout infielder Pat Valaika has returned to the Duke City, wearing the uniform of the opponent. Valaika is in the dugout of the Tacoma Rainiers. “You know, parts of four seasons I played with a lot of really good guys, some good teams, had some good games here,” said Valaika. “You know, it’s a very offensive place, so it’s fun to come back and see the ball fly a little bit.”

Valaika was drafted by the Colorado Rockies in 2013 and earned his first call-up to the big club in 2016. He split time between the Isotopes and Rockies for four seasons. While in Albuquerque, he even hit for the cycle twice. Valaika was released by the Rockies in 2019 and has seen a lot of different clubs since, moving from the Baltimore Orioles organization to the Atlanta Braves.

Story continues below:

In March of this year, Valaika signed a minor league deal with the Seattle Mariners. He understands that he is nearing the end of his career, but has found perspective and a new joy for playing the game. “You know I have grown up a little bit and try to enjoy the game a little more as I get older, just kind of approach each day like it could be my last because as you start to get older opportunities start to dry up a little bit,” said Valaika. “So, I am trying to do the best that I can for as long as I can, but I still think that I can bring stuff to the table and compete and that is why I am still here.”

Valaika comes from a baseball-playing family. He is one of four brothers to play professional baseball. His older brother Chris is currently a hitting coach for the Cleveland Guardians.

Lobo baseball will try to make the Mountain West Tournament as they play a three-game series at the home of the San Diego State Aztecs. The Lobos are in fifth place in the conference, just on the outside of a tournament berth. They can only get in with a sweep of the Aztecs. Game time Thursday night is 7 p.m.

On Friday, New Mexico women’s golf tees off in the NCAA championships at Grayhawk Golf Club in Scottsdale, Arizona. It’s the Lobos’ first NCAA championship appearance since 2010, at a course UNM head coach Jill Trujillo has never played but recruited out of a junior tournament held there for “years and years.”

The NCAA championship format: after three rounds of stroke play, the top 15 of 36 teams advance to the final round on May 22. From there, eight teams advance to three rounds of match play to decide a national champion.

The Lobo team in Arizona consists of senior Jenny Lertsadwattana, senior Lauren Lehigh, junior Myah McDonald, sophomore Lisa-Marie Pagliano and freshman Maria Caparros Levin.

UNM’s 16th NCAA championship appearance overall comes after the Lobos rallied on the final day of their NCAA regional to finish a combined 25-over at TPC San Antonio for the fifth and final qualifying spot.

In their two biggest tournaments of the year, the Lobos dug deep for another strong finish after waking up on the outside looking in.

“They have guts,” Trujillo said of her team. “They don’t like losing and winning, they know now is an option. They knew we had to stay steady and in the present, hit good shots, make good putts on that day.”

In some ways, just being there is reason enough for good feelings. The Lobos have been arguably the Mountain West’s premier program since 2010. Even still, an NCAA championship appearance eluded them, successful seasons coming and going.

“It’s hard,” Trujillo said. “It’s hard to make it to the NCAA championships. First, you gotta make it to regionals and then it’s just one tournament.

“We talked about the same thing at regionals – it’s just one tournament. The fact that they had that really good mentality and bought into that part of their own game, I think it really catapulted us.”

And in some ways, just being there isn’t enough. After all, the road back has shown Trujillo and her team what they can do in these spots – with the right approach.

“You can only do and control what you’re doing at the moment,” Trujillo said. “That’s what gets people through all these rounds in the heat out here. And they all have really good attitudes, too. There’s just no downers on this team.”
