Track & trace

Track a Maersk container or shipment

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

Maersk numbers typically start with MSKU, MAEU. logee recognises the prefix, then routes you to Maersk'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

Free time ends in 2 days. This container is due back before Thursday, demurrage starts the day after. logee flags this automatically and drafts the return booking, you don't have to be the one watching the calendar.

Using logee with Maersk

Why pair Maersk with an AI TMS

Maersk containers can physically sail on a Hapag-Lloyd vessel and vice versa under the Gemini Cooperation alliance, so the booking number and the operating ship aren't always obviously connected. logee tracks the shipment itself, not one carrier's portal, so an alliance vessel swap doesn't create a gap in your visibility. Pair that with logee's own layer of deadline and cost tracking, free time, demurrage, invoice-to-quote checks, and a Maersk booking gets the same automatic oversight as every other shipment on your books.

About Maersk

2nd-largest container carrier by capacity

Maersk also runs the world's largest refrigerated (reefer) container fleet, worth knowing if you import perishables, temperature excursions are a different failure mode than a simple delay.

Maersk container numbers start with MSKU or MAEU. Typical Asia-Europe transit runs 30-34 days, trans-Pacific to the US West Coast 12-16 days. A tracking result that looks stuck is usually a transshipment call, the container changes vessels mid-voyage and the status can lag a day or two either side of that switch. If you run ocean freight regularly, that lag is exactly the kind of gap logee's agent is built to close.

Questions

Maersk tracking, answered

How do I track a Maersk container or shipment?
Enter your container number (starting MSKU or MAEU) or bill of lading directly on Maersk's own tracker, linked above. If the shipment is connected through your logee account, logee tracks it automatically alongside every other carrier you use.
Why does my Maersk tracking show no updates for a few days?
This is usually a transshipment call: the container changes vessels partway through the voyage, and status can lag a day or two either side of that switch. It doesn't necessarily mean anything is wrong.
Is Maersk part of a shipping alliance?
Yes. Maersk and Hapag-Lloyd formed the Gemini Cooperation alliance, so a Maersk booking can physically sail on a Hapag-Lloyd vessel and vice versa.
What does the MSKU or MAEU prefix on my container mean?
It's the container's ISO 6346 owner code, the international standard that identifies Maersk as the operator, the same system every shipping line uses so containers can be identified anywhere in the world.
Can logee track my Maersk shipments automatically, not just one at a time?
Yes. Connect your inbox and logee builds a live record of every Maersk shipment you have, watches free time, ETA changes and invoices, and flags what needs your attention without you looking anything up.
