Yard management for cold storage & refrigerated warehousing.
In cold storage, dwell is not just a cost — it is a fuel bill and a temperature risk. Vantage tracks how long each reefer has been in the yard, warns before free time expires, and timestamps every gate move. On a phone, from $149/mo.
A refrigerated yard has a clock running on every trailer: fuel burning, temperature to hold, and free-time ticking toward detention. Legacy yard systems that need fixed sensors are hard to install and keep working in a cold, wet, high-turn environment — and a whiteboard cannot tell you which reefer has been sitting the longest.
What cold storage & refrigerated warehousing yards actually need
- Reefer dwell clock on every trailer, sortable oldest-first
- Free-time warnings before detention starts
- Gate timestamps for detention disputes with carriers
- No fixed hardware to fail in a cold, wet yard
- Offline-first — keeps recording through outages
Transparent price, no hardware
Vantage publishes pricing — $149 Lite, $349 Pro (adds C-TPAT), $649 Scale — with a 14-day free trial and no setup fee. There's nothing to install, so you can be live in a day and add sites without a project plan.
Frequently asked
How does Vantage reduce reefer detention?
It puts a live dwell clock on every trailer and flags the ones approaching free-time expiry, so your team pulls the oldest reefers first instead of finding out at invoice time.
Will it work in a cold, wet yard without sensors?
Yes. There is no RFID or fixed sensor to install or maintain — the gate clerk captures everything on a phone, which is far more robust in a refrigerated environment.
What does it cost for a cold storage operation?
Published pricing from $149/month, with C-TPAT inspection on the $349 Pro plan and multi-site on $649 Scale. 14-day free trial, no setup fee.
