Zero in Detention Fees!
How Top Shipping Yards Reduce Detention Fees to Zero – And Stay There!
Imagine this:
It’s Monday morning, and you check your yard report. You see the same old problem—thousands in detention fees racking up for idle trailers. The clock is ticking. Drivers are frustrated. And your boss? He’s expecting answers.
But what if that number was zero? That would be a game changer wouldn’t it?
Some of the world’s most efficient shipping yards have cracked the detention fee puzzle, using a strategy that doesn’t require hiring more people, installing expensive infrastructure, or micromanaging dispatchers.
Instead, they’re using a Yard Management System (YMS) designed to eliminate detention fees automatically. And you can too right?
Every minute a trailer sits idle, your costs rise. How much are you losing?
From chaos to control: YMS keeps detention fees toward $0. What would that mean for your bottom line?
What would your bottom line look like if detention fees disappeared tomorrow?
Let’s be real—detention fees aren’t just a cost, they’re a symptom of deeper yard inefficiencies:
• Lack of real-time visibility – Dispatch doesn’t know where trailers are, so delays build up.
• Manual check-ins and paper tracking – Slows down drivers, leads to miscommunication.
• Yard congestion – When gates are clogged, trucks sit, and you pay for it.
If you could solve this problem overnight it would be a game changer right?
Time is money, and this yard is losing both. Every minute of congestion adds to detention fees—what’s your plan to fix it?”
One delay leads to another—until detention fees pile up. Is your yard caught in this cycle?
The truth? Without automation, you’re always one step behind.
Think how much your yard could save this quarter if you had total visibility on every trailer? A lot right?
The best logistics leaders don’t fight detention fees. They engineer them out of existence.
The game-changer? YMS technology that gives you real-time visual control and complete transparency over over yard movements.
• Automated Check-Ins – Drivers are assigned slots before they even arrive.
• Live Trailer Tracking – Know exactly where every trailer is, instantly.
• Intelligent Alerts – Prevent overstays with automatic detention warnings.
