By applying modern technology and problem-solving to one of the oldest problems in the book, Kaleris YMS reduces trailer detention, cuts back significantly on third-party jockey services, practically eliminates the need for trailer rentals, and turns simple data collection into an operational tool. Using the RFID-based system, for example, it takes just minutes to locate a trailer which has been placed in an optimal position to minimize unnecessary yard movements & employee labor.

- Eliminating daily manual yard checks
