Track & trace

Track a COSCO container or shipment

Enter your COSCO container number or bill of lading to find the right tracker, plus see what logee catches automatically that a one-off lookup won't.

COSCO numbers typically start with COSU. logee recognises the prefix, then routes you to COSCO's own tracker for the live status.

What a tracking lookup won't tell you

A carrier tracker shows you where the container is right now. It won't tell you if that's a problem, or what to do about it.

Illustrative example
logee agent

Invoice came in 9% above quote. The overage traces to a storage charge, not the base freight rate. logee catches this the moment the invoice lands, not at month-end reconciliation.

Why pair COSCO with an AI TMS

COSCO's sheer volume on China-origin lanes means most SMB importers run several COSCO containers at once, often booked through different forwarders under different reference numbers, and sailing under the same Ocean Alliance as CMA CGM, OOCL and Evergreen. logee gives you one list across all of them, alongside every other carrier you use, instead of several separate COSCO booking numbers to check one by one.

Global rank
4th-largest container carrier by capacity

COSCO's density on China-origin lanes means a lot of SMB importers see a COSU prefix at some point, even when the booking was made through a different forwarder or NVOCC.

COSCO container numbers start with COSU. As the dominant carrier on China-origin lanes, COSCO's Asia-Europe transit runs around 28-32 days and trans-Pacific 13-17 days depending on port pair. High volume also means high consolidation, one COSCO vessel can carry hundreds of SMB shipments, so port congestion on either end has an outsized effect on COSCO ETAs specifically. That's the kind of delay pattern logee watches for across every shipment, not just the one you happen to check.

Questions

COSCO tracking, answered

How do I track a COSCO container or shipment?
Enter your container number (starting COSU) or bill of lading on COSCO's own tracking tools, linked above. logee recognises the prefix automatically for connected shipments.
Why does my COSCO shipment's ETA keep changing?
COSCO's high volume on China-origin lanes means port congestion on either end has an outsized effect on its schedules. logee tracks the full ETA history so you can see a pattern building, not just today's number.
Is COSCO part of a shipping alliance?
Yes, COSCO sails in the Ocean Alliance with CMA CGM, OOCL and Evergreen.
What does the COSU prefix mean?
It's the container's ISO 6346 owner code identifying COSCO as the operator, the international standard every shipping line uses.
Can logee track my COSCO shipments automatically?
Yes. logee watches every COSCO shipment you connect, alongside every other carrier you use, in one place.
