Case Study: Kimberly-Clark achieves 52% lower detention fees with FourKites Dynamic Yard

Kimberly-Clark slashes detention fees by 52% in 30 days with FourKites

Kimberly-Clark, a low-cost operation, faced challenges in managing trailer detention fees due to its responsive yard, spending significant monthly fees at a single site. The company partnered with vendor FourKites to implement its Dynamic Yard service to digitize yard orchestration and gain proactive control.

FourKites' solution provided passive trailer monitoring and proactive alerting for trailers nearing detention. This allowed Kimberly-Clark's team to address potential issues in advance. As a result, in just 30 days, the company achieved a 52% reduction in detention fees, saving $448,000, and a 41% reduction in trailers entering detention.
