Each drop yard utilizes high fencing with barbed wire securing all perimeters. Razor Wire is used in higher traffic areas. LED High Lumen Lighting throughout.
Manually Logged & Software Logged Transactions - filmed on multiple CCTV cameras capturing the Driver, Tractor, and Trailer
All units entering or leaving must go through the guard house area where they are manually and electronically logged by gate attendants. Attendants record inbound driver’s information, asset identifying markers and seal numbers, and use house locks. This information is then verified and seal checks are performed during outbound before assets are released.
