Tacoma Yard

A Bird’s-Eye View of Our Yard

Our secure, gated Tacoma yard sits minutes from the Port of Tacoma gates. Containers, chassis and trucks are kept together in one place, so a container pulled from the terminal has somewhere to go right away.

Being this close to the port means more turns per driver each day and a realistic shot at late gate windows.

Tacoma Yard

Hostler-Assisted Container Staging

Our yard operations include hostler support to help position and stage containers before driver pickup. By preparing equipment and containers within the yard, drivers can spend less time maneuvering and waiting and more time staying on schedule.

This helps support efficient yard movement, faster driver access and better coordination with delivery and terminal appointments.

Why choose D&G for yard storage

Minutes from the terminals

The yard sits at 2102 Marshal Ave in Tacoma, close enough that a container pulled against last free day can come straight in.

Holding a box in our yard keeps containers out of terminal storage while the receiving window is sorted out.

Secure gated facility, 24/7 surveillance

The yard is gated and monitored around the clock, with access coordinated through our operations team and containers tracked while they are in the yard.

Organized driver access & hostler support

Equipment is staged in an organized layout with hostler support, giving drivers faster, more organized access and supporting terminal and delivery appointments.

Process

How it works

  1. 01

    Storage need discussed

    Tell dispatch what is coming in, whether it is loaded or empty, and roughly how long it needs to sit.

  2. 02

    Container received

    The box arrives on our equipment and is placed and logged in the yard.

  3. 03

    Stored or staged

    It is held securely or staged with hostler support, ready for the next terminal or delivery appointment.

  4. 04

    Released on your schedule

    The container goes out to the consignee or back to the terminal on the day you want it moved.

Pacific Northwest operations

A Tacoma yard, not an off-site lot

Because the yard is in the Port of Tacoma area rather than out of region, moving a container between the terminals and storage is a short run instead of a full extra trip.

Our trucks. Our chassis. Our yard.

Yard plus 25+ chassis

Owned chassis let loaded containers stay mounted while stored, so nothing needs to be found or hired when the delivery appointment lands.
