A live map of every container and slot in your yard.
YardX gives you a live map of your container yard. Every container, slot and equipment move is logged automatically from crane, gate and handheld events, so planners always know where each box is.
RECENT MOVES
Every container placed and found exactly where it should be
YardX checks every stacker placement against the yard plan and keeps the live map in sync, so a misplaced container is caught before the crane moves on and the yard is never searched by eye.
- Critical events like a container placed in the wrong block are flagged at once.
- Warnings catch a stack getting close to its height limit.
- Confirmed placements and retrievals update the yard map instantly.
Moves and placement accuracy, by hour
YardX plots container moves per hour against placement accuracy, so the yard planner can see exactly when the yard is busiest and where mis-stows start to creep in.
Lost containers and idle trucks, fixed in the yard
The everyday problems YardX removes from your site, so people only handle the exceptions.
- Containers are lost in the yard and need manual searches
- Yard plans live on whiteboards and spreadsheets
- Equipment makes unnecessary moves to dig out boxes
- Customers wait for status updates on their containers
