If YRC actually DOES know for sure where all the trailers are, empty or loaded, whether it be PTS, rail (pigs). linehaul, leased or rentals, then it is a sure sign of mismanagement and poor positioning of needed empty trailers where they are needed. It seems like nobody is in charge.
Computers are only as good as the information humans put into them. If trailers are moving in and out of places where nobody is entering that info into the computer system, how is the computer going to know? There's an old saying about computers, "Garbage in, garbage out". With that many usable trailers in the system, there is no reason there should be any shortage of empty trailers anywhere. Any shortage of empties that does occur, should be very short termed until some can be brought in from another nearby terminal or other place where the "known" empties are. Something stinks.
 
I know the head guy at BRG Patel Consulting... I can have them do an evaluation study,possibly work up a video showing the pros and cons,along with maybe a company wide conference call,and hold nationwide townhall meetings to answer questions....And post the results on here....
Sell the video and your expertise as a Consultant. YRC will hire you for Far More than you make driving. Prob give you a bonus!
