Cargo ships
Dry-cargo ships turn round on hold cleaning, lashing and lifting gear, mooring rope and deck paint — and every crew needs provisions, fresh water and cabin stores.

Vessels heading to Philadelphia
Last 30 days · distinct vessels · AIS-declared destination
Our AIS receivers caught no vessel declaring Philadelphia as its destination in the last 30 days. That says more about receiver coverage than about the port: the free AIS feed we read is dense in Northern Europe, the Mediterranean and the Singapore Strait and thin elsewhere, including much of the Gulf. Requests posted for Philadelphia still reach every supplier activated here.
How this is counted: a vessel is counted once when its AIS static message names Philadelphia as the destination and our directory resolves that to USPHL. Vessels under 60 m, fishing craft, tugs, pilot, naval and pleasure craft are left out. Destinations and ETAs are what each crew typed into its AIS set — unverified, and sometimes stale. Counts as of 29 October 2026 (UTC), refreshed every few hours. Names, IMO and MMSI numbers are never published here.
What these ships order
Dry-cargo ships turn round on hold cleaning, lashing and lifting gear, mooring rope and deck paint — and every crew needs provisions, fresh water and cabin stores.
Tankers order gas detection, cargo-hose couplings, gas-freeing ducting and high-performance mooring lines, alongside the safety and protective gear their terminals inspect.
Passenger ships and ferries carry many people on short rotations: galley and tableware, cleaning and water-treatment stores, lighting and life-saving appliances.
Whatever the type, every ship renews its pyrotechnics, charts, pilot ladder and lubricants on a cycle — the standing order behind most ship-supply requisitions.
What a vessel can arrange at Philadelphia — anchorages, rules and the services in reach — is in the Philadelphia port guide.
