Container Prefix Tracking

CAXU Container Tracking – CAI International

Track CAXU containers associated with CAI International. Check the ISO number format, owner identity, carrier milestones, and missing-update guidance.

Prefix
CAXU
Owner or operator
CAI International

The four-letter prefix CAXU appears at the start of ISO container identification numbers and is associated with CAI International.

A complete container number combines the owner prefix, six-digit serial number, and check digit. The prefix identifies registered equipment ownership and does not always identify the carrier currently transporting the container.

Use the complete number to request available tracking events. If no events appear, confirm the operating carrier because leased or exchanged equipment can move under another shipping line.

CAXU container number format

A container number starting with CAXU has the four-letter prefix, a six-digit serial number, and one check digit, for example CAXU1234567.

Tracking a CAXU container

Enter the full CAXU number to request events. The prefix identifies the owner, but leased or exchanged equipment can travel with another shipping line, so check the operating carrier if nothing appears.
