Trailers sitting in your yard too long?

Your yard has become a trailer parking lot. Drivers wait hours for dock assignments while loaded trailers sit untouched for days. The detention fees keep climbing and your facility runs behind schedule because no one knows which trailer goes where or when.

This happens when trailer movement isn't coordinated with your dock schedule. Drivers arrive without appointments, loaded trailers get buried behind empties, and your team spends time hunting for the right equipment instead of moving freight. Wisconsin's manufacturing and dairy operations see this problem constantly during peak shipping seasons.

Professional yard management typically costs less than the detention fees you're already paying. The service includes trailer tracking, dock scheduling, and equipment staging. Larger yards with 50+ trailers see the biggest impact, but even smaller operations benefit when detention costs pile up during busy periods.

Start by tracking how much you spend on detention fees each month. Then call Gateway Distribution to discuss yard management for your Wisconsin facility. The service organizes trailer flow, coordinates driver appointments, and keeps equipment moving through your dock doors instead of sitting in your lot.

A managed yard runs on schedule. Drivers know where to go and when. Your team focuses on loading and unloading instead of searching for trailers. Detention fees drop because equipment moves efficiently through your facility.
