Trailers sitting in your yard too long?

Your yard has turned into a trailer parking lot. Drivers wait hours for dock space while loaded trailers sit for days. Detention fees pile up and your operation slows to a crawl across Tennessee's busy I-40 and I-75 corridors.

This happens when trailer movement isn't coordinated with dock schedules. Drivers arrive without appointments, trailers get staged in the wrong spots, and nobody tracks what needs to move when. Your yard becomes a bottleneck instead of a flow-through operation.

Professional yard management typically costs less than the detention fees you're already paying. The investment depends on your trailer volume and yard size. Most operations see immediate savings once trailers start moving on schedule instead of sitting idle.

Start by tracking how long trailers actually sit in your yard and what detention fees cost each month. Then call Gateway Distribution to discuss coordinated trailer staging and dock scheduling. Professional yard managers move trailers before drivers arrive, schedule appointments, and keep your operation flowing.

Once your yard runs on a system, trailers move in and out the same day. Detention fees drop to almost nothing. Drivers spend less time waiting and more time moving freight.
