Where can a mobile yard ramp be used? Due to its mobility, a yard ramp can be placed and utilized wherever it is needed. This includes indoor and outdoor scenarios and in virtually any climate. Employing a ramp clamp helps the operator place the yard ramp directly at the end of a dock and/or flush with a truck’s door.

Are they safe? When used properly, mobile yard ramps are very safe, both for the forklift operator and for the load itself. Most yard ramps are also equipped with a number of safety features that designed to keep product moving. Safety rails, handrails, and non-slip decking are available or even standard on the best-build yard ramps.

Reducing Yard Ramp Shipping Costs (https://yardrampguy.com/yard-ramp-shipping-costs/) Location Matters One of the central goals of The Yard Ramp Guy is to optimize logistics and mitigate yard ramp shipping costs for our clients. We are always looking to arrange some form of combined freight. It's a creative process that involves a little bit of luck and a good deal of strategy. We create scenarios where we combine client A's yard ramp order with Client B’s order destined for another city along the original freight lane. With a yard ramp going from point A to point B, optimally our equipment will join additional equipment along the way. And the trucking company operates more efficiently by cobbling together a full load, even if the driver is going to a few different cities along the way. This also works if the additional equipment is not part of our business. The advantage: if a full load is, say, $2,000 from points A to B, and they can pick up the other half along the way, they’re only charging us $1,000. Again, you're paying less because you're sharing the load. For example: we need to get a couple of yard ramps to Orlando, and we also have a customer in Tampa who needs a yard ramp. We put Tampa’s yard ramp on with the other two, and that customer is paying a third of the cost. We're able to create that kind of “luck” about 15 percent of the time. Simplifying complexities such ascombined freight is yet another aspect of The Yard Ramp Guy’s approach that differentiates us from the competition.
