In this episode of The New Warehouse Podcast, Kevin Lawton welcomes Matt Yearling, CEO of YMX Logistics, to explore one of the most overlooked areas of warehouse and supply chain performance: yard operations. While most conversations focus on transportation or warehouse automation, the yard often sits in between—underutilized, under-optimized, and misunderstood. 

Drawing from decades of experience in logistics, technology, and yard management, he explains why the yard represents one of the most significant untapped opportunities for operational improvement and how YMX is helping companies rethink what happens between the gate and the dock.
