The increased activity came at a time of slow but distinct recovery for U.S. industrial markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Container volume rose 1.6 percent year-over-year in 2025 to 62.3 million TEUs across the top 15 North American ports, the report noted. TEU (Twenty-foot Equivalent Unit) is\u00a0a standard measurement of shipping based on the volume of a 20-foot-long intermodal container.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The U.S. industrial market, according to Savills, saw vacancies climb no higher during the fourth quarter of 2025, coming in at 8.2 percent. That stabilization was in the wake of 13 quarters of rising vacancy for the industrial market. Leasing also rebounded during the year <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/port-activity-rebounds\/\">compared with 2024<\/a> despite\u2014or perhaps because of\u2014unresolved trade policy, since lease expirations forced decisions by tenants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2026\/03\/Port-activity1-e1772446347280.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"1004789779\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/?attachment_id=1004789779\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2026\/03\/Port-activity1-e1772446347280.png\" data-orig-size=\"1068,720\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Port activity1\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Image included in the press release: https:\/\/www.savills.us\/research_articles\/256536\/388226-0&lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Port activity set a new record in 2025.

The top busiest U.S. container port is Los Angeles, which it has been for 26 years in a row. In 2025, Los Angeles handled 10.2 million TEUs, a slight decline from 2024, yet still a top three all-time year for cargo volumes, Savills reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Port of Long Beach followed a record-breaking 2024 with yet another record-breaking 2025, handling 9.9 million TEUs, a 2.4 percent year-over-year increase, making it the second-busiest container port in the U.S.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, there were 3 million square feet of positive absorption in the Los Angeles industrial market in 2025, including Long Beach, with the market coming in at 7.1 percent vacant at the end of the year, which is lower\u2014but not greatly lower\u2014than the national industrial vacancy of 8.2 percent, according to Savills data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite L.A.\u2019s exposure to China, with more than 40 percent of its volume tied to China-based ports, policy shifts around tariffs didn\u2019t dampen L.A. port activity last year. Rather, the Port of Los Angeles handled 1 million TEUs in its busiest month (July)\u2014evidence of its volatility\u2014and in the second half of the year, July through December, averaged just over 880,000 TEUs per month. Continued growth for the port is likely, as evidenced by a proposal for a new 200-acre container terminal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity has-very-light-gray-to-cyan-bluish-gray-gradient-background has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>READ ALSO<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/top-emerging-industrial-markets\/\">Top 10 Emerging Industrial Markets<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity has-very-light-gray-to-cyan-bluish-gray-gradient-background has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn step with the port\u2019s continued success has been its investment in the container business, most notably the recently started $365 million Pier G \u2013 ITS slip fill redevelopment, which stands to create additional acreage at Terminal G and allow service to the largest cargo vessels,\u201d Savills noted in the report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other coast, Northern New Jersey also turned in container volume growth as well as positive industrial absorption and relatively low vacancy. Savills reported that northern New Jersey (along with New York), building on a strong 2024, handled nearly 9 million TEUs in 2025, which is its third-busiest year on record, despite concerns about tariffs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The industrial vacancy rate in Northern New Jersey came in at 7.3 percent, also below the national average, and the industrial market absorbed 4.8 million square feet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMuch like Southern California, higher real estate and labor costs\u2014where northern New Jersey ranks at or near the top nationally\u2014are the cost of doing business for access to the busiest container port on the Eastern Seaboard and the nearly 20 million consumers living in the greater New York metropolitan area,\u201d the report noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-container-volume-outlook-for-2026\">Container volume outlook for 2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Container volumes are expected to ease or remain flat in 2026 as front-loading\u2014the practice of trying to get ahead of factors (such as tariffs) that might cause a spike in costs\u2014eases especially for U.S. ports, Savills predicts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cPort activity this year will probably experience some short-term volatility but perhaps some growth if tariff uncertainties are resolved and supply chains adjust to a new trade policy landscape,\u201d Savills Head of Industrial Services Gregg Healy told <em>Commercial Property Executive<\/em>. \u201cThe lingering question is what impact will potential refunds have on all of this?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>FedEx is already asking for refunds, others will likely follow, Healy says. The Trump administration is trying to make a deal by providing smaller refunds now in exchange for closing them out with speed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ll see how that plays out,\u201d Healy said. \u201cAlso, will there be some drag in the short term as they sort this out? Some countries\u2014the major exporting countries\u2014will see a benefit to the lower tariff rates and may try to adjust manufacturing schedules to take advantage of the lower tariffs before another new policy is enacted.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2026\/03\/Import-volatility.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"715\" height=\"454\" data-attachment-id=\"1004789787\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/?attachment_id=1004789787\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/46\/2026\/03\/Import-volatility.png\" data-orig-size=\"715,454\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Import volatility\" data-image-description=\"&lt;p&gt;Image included in the press release: https:\/\/www.savills.us\/research_articles\/256536\/388226-0 &lt;\/p&gt;\n\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Import volatility.

Last year, Long Beach was the most volatile U.S. port, with its volatility index at nearly 19.1 percent. The index is based on trailing three-month standard deviation of loaded import volumes relative to the three-month average.
