Prescott Port (UN/LOCODE: CAPRE)

Prescott is a Canadian river port on the north shore of the St. Lawrence River, positioned between Lake Ontario and Montréal. Its operating profile is bulk and breakbulk rather than a conventional container gateway, with a strong Ontario grain function and cargo flows linked to the Great Lakes–St. Lawrence waterway. The supplied port record identifies a 154,020-tonne grain elevator, two principal berths of 283 m and 396 m, additional berthage up to 442 m, and approximately 9.0 m alongside depth. The record also states approximately 30 vessels and 436,800 cargo handled annually; the unit and measurement basis for the latter figure should be confirmed before commercial quoting. Our service team treats Prescott as a project- and commodity-specific port call requiring advance confirmation of berth, draft, cargo-handling and inland arrangements.

Facilities & Services

Prescott should be planned as a bulk and general-cargo facility. Our service team confirms the applicable terminal, berth and cargo-handling arrangements before accepting a firm operating plan.

Grain infrastructure	The supplied record identifies a grain elevator with 154,020 tonnes of storage capacity for Western wheat and feed grains.
Berthage	Two loading and unloading berths are reported at 283 m and 396 m, with other berthage up to 442 m. Private berthage is also identified in the supplied record.
Water depth	Approximately 9.0 m alongside at the listed berths according to the supplied record. Actual sailing draft depends on water level, channel restrictions, vessel condition and port confirmation.
Cargo handling	The documented profile supports bulk and breakbulk movements, including grain, salt, fertilizer, minerals, forest products, chemicals and petroleum-related cargoes. Equipment and discharge method must be confirmed per commodity.
Container capability	The provided database records zero FCL and LCL service entries. Do not assume regular container-terminal handling; our team can assess a nearby gateway or transload alternative when containerization is required.

Routes & Logistics Timing

Waterborne cargo normally connects through the Great Lakes–St. Lawrence system, with onward or feeder planning toward Lake Ontario, Montréal and other St. Lawrence destinations. Vessel availability and seasonal operating conditions must be checked for each booking.
For overseas containerized cargo, Prescott is generally better evaluated as an origin or destination point for bulk, breakbulk or transload cargo rather than as a guaranteed direct container service point.
End-to-end timing is affected by vessel nomination, berth windows, river and lake conditions, cargo readiness, customs release, terminal productivity, inland truck capacity and any transload requirement. Our team provides a working schedule only after these variables are confirmed.
Winter conditions, water-level changes, navigation restrictions and ice-management measures may affect vessel planning. Shippers should build schedule contingency instead of relying on a fixed transit promise.

Hinterland & Key Cargo

Hinterland

The port is positioned to serve eastern Ontario and cargo moving along the St. Lawrence corridor, with commercial reach determined by the final truck, rail or water connection.

Agricultural commodities

Western wheat and feed grains are specifically identified in the supplied record, making elevator scheduling, moisture control and quality documentation central to execution.

Industrial bulk

Salt, calcium chloride, fertilizer, coal, potash, sulphur, chemicals, petroleum and iron ore are listed cargo categories. Classification, packaging and environmental controls vary by product.

Breakbulk and forest products

Lumber and other non-containerized cargo may require lifting plans, weather protection, dunnage, securement checks and a confirmed receiving site.

Operations & Compliance

Berth, draft and cargo acceptance must be confirmed before nomination. The stated 9.0 m depth is a reference from the supplied record, not a guaranteed navigational clearance for every sailing.
For dangerous goods such as chemicals, petroleum products, calcium chloride or other regulated cargoes, provide the correct UN number, proper shipping name, class, packing group, safety data sheet and handling instructions before booking. Acceptance remains subject to the carrier, terminal and Canadian regulatory requirements.
For grain, fertilizer and other bulk commodities, align cargo specifications, weight certificates, quality documents, fumigation or treatment records where applicable, and loading sequence with the receiver and terminal.
Cut-off, customs presentation, inspection timing and truck appointment requirements can vary by cargo and facility. Our service team obtains the operative schedule from the nominated terminal, carrier and customs broker rather than applying a generic container cut-off.

Shipping Tips from Our Service Team

Send the commodity description, annual or shipment quantity, packing method, cargo dimensions, density, draft limitation and preferred loading window at the quotation stage.
For non-containerized cargo, agree in writing on loading gear, shore equipment, stevedoring responsibility, dunnage, weather protection, tallying, shortage or damage procedures and cargo survey requirements.
Use a pre-clearance document checklist covering commercial invoice, packing or weight list, bill of lading instructions, origin documents, permits and dangerous-goods paperwork where applicable.
If the cargo is containerized or requires frequent liner service, ask our team to compare a suitable nearby container gateway, transload point or inland routing instead of assuming CAPRE provides regular FCL/LCL handling.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Prescott a container port?

The supplied database contains zero FCL and LCL service entries, and the documented cargo profile is bulk and breakbulk. Our team verifies whether a specific container or transload solution is operationally available before quoting.

What is the reported berth depth?

The supplied port description reports approximately 9.0 m alongside at all listed berths. Actual permissible draft must be reconfirmed against current water level, vessel particulars and port instructions.

Which commodities are commonly associated with CAPRE?

The supplied record identifies grain, salt, calcium chloride, fertilizer, coal, potash, lumber, sulphur, chemicals, petroleum and iron ore, among other bulk and breakbulk cargoes.

Can a fixed transit time be quoted?

Not before the waterborne or inland route, cargo readiness, berth window, customs status and seasonal constraints are confirmed. We provide a planning range with stated assumptions rather than an unconditional promise.

Data Sources & Provenance

Port code, name, country, city, coordinates, berth dimensions, reported storage capacity, depth, cargo profile and annual handling figures are taken from the supplied CAPRE port record. The annual figure stated as “436,800 cargos” is reproduced without assigning a unit because the source record does not define its measurement basis.

Regulatory and customs context should be verified against current Canadian government information, including tc.canada.ca and cbsa-asfc.gc.ca. Current berth availability, draft restrictions, cargo acceptance, vessel windows, handling charges, inspection arrangements and inland cut-offs require confirmation with the nominated facility, carrier, broker and our service team.
