Savannah is the dominant container port for the US Southeast and a strong Southeast option for West Africa cargo. Combined with nearby Brunswick (which carries most of the SE RoRo volume), the GA coast is the right loading region for cargo originating in GA, SC, AL, FL, TN, and NC.

Why Savannah / Brunswick wins for the SE
For an auction or dealer pickup in Atlanta, Jacksonville, Charlotte, Birmingham, or Tampa, Savannah and Brunswick are 2-8 hours of drayage. Newark is 12+ hours. The cheaper trucking leg often more than offsets any ocean-rate difference.
