Trailers sitting in your yard for days?

Your trailers pile up waiting for dock space or drivers. You're paying detention fees while loads sit idle. Across North Dakota's farming and industrial operations, poor trailer flow costs money every day.

Trailers sitting too long means your yard lacks organized flow. Without proper staging and scheduling, trailers stack up randomly. Drivers can't find their loads. Dock doors stay tied up. This creates bottlenecks that ripple through your entire operation.

Detention fees typically run $25-75 per day per trailer. A yard with 20 trailers sitting an extra two days costs $1,000-3,000 weekly. Factor in frustrated drivers, missed delivery windows, and lost productivity. The costs add up fast, especially during North Dakota's busy harvest and shipping seasons.

You need professional yard management to organize trailer movement and scheduling. Look for services that track every trailer location, coordinate dock appointments, and communicate with drivers before they arrive. Gateway Distribution handles trailer staging and movement so your facility never waits on drivers or loses track of loads.

Proper yard management cuts detention costs and speeds up turnaround. Your trailers move efficiently from arrival to departure. Drivers know exactly where to go. Your docks stay productive instead of sitting idle.
