Currently the largest single-terminal container facility in North America, in addition to being the fourth-busiest container port in the U.S. The Port of Savannah also lays claim to being the second-busiest U.S. container exporter, right behind the Port of Los Angeles in terms of millions of tons shipped. Its Garden City Terminal has twenty-six cranes, four of which can handle Super Post-Panamax-sized cargo ships. Its southern location makes it a slightly shorter trip for ships coming from Asia, with cargo bound for the East Coast. The port has also developed an inland logistics area, which has dedicated warehouse and cargo handling facilities for Target Stores, Lowe's, Home Depot, and Dollar General, among others. These new features exist in what was already a major industrial port, home to Sea point Industrial Terminal Complex (formerly a Tronox Kerr-McGee chemical plant), a Conoco-Phillips refinery, a large LNG terminal on Elba Island, a Georgia Pacific Gypsum plant, and a major International Paper pulp mill.
