Located on the Ohio River, the Hawesville Marine Terminal serves many industries including aluminum, steel, and paper. Designated as a Foreign Trade Zone (FTZ), this terminal offers 350,000 sq. ft. of warehouse space and is served by the CSX.

Foreign Trade Zone

There are many advantages to our FTZ designation. Importers can defer — and sometimes reduce or even eliminate — customs duties on imports. We can help streamline the paperwork process needed for customs clearance, especially by consolidating multiple shipments into one filing. 

Indoor Railcar Spots

We have space to protect goods from weather or contaminants during transloading. Our warehouse features three indoor railcar spots for transloading weather-sensitive products.
