Yard management for e-commerce fulfillment.
E-commerce fulfillment runs on fast, predictable dock flow and seasonal spikes. Vantage books carriers into slots, times every gate move, and shows the yard live — so cut-offs hold even during a surge. On a phone, from $149/mo.
Fulfillment operations live and die by cut-off times and carrier reliability. A yard run on group texts cannot tell you which trailer is where, cannot hold a carrier to an appointment, and cannot prove dwell when a partner disputes it. During a seasonal spike, those small gaps become missed cut-offs.
What e-commerce fulfillment yards actually need
- Carrier appointment booking that holds a slot to a time
- Live yard visibility for fast trailer turns
- Gate timestamps for carrier scorecards and detention
- No-show release — free a dead slot the moment it dies
- Bilingual English/Spanish, because the floor is
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
Can Vantage handle seasonal fulfillment spikes?
Yes. Appointment booking caps arrivals per hour so doors stay open, gate check-in is seconds per truck, and the live yard map keeps trailer turns fast even at peak volume.
Does it help with carrier accountability?
Every gate in and out is timestamped, so you have the record to run carrier scorecards and to settle detention with evidence instead of memory.
Is it a fit for a 3PL running multiple clients?
Yes. Vantage is built for 3PLs and DCs with roughly 20 to 80 doors, with multi-site support on the Scale plan and published pricing from $149/month.
