How do ports and container depots manage container storage?

Ports and depots manage container storage shipping by assigning each container a reference and location within the yard, often using digital yard-management systems. Containers are stacked according to size, destination and priority to minimise unnecessary moves. When a haulier or ship arrives, yard equipment such as reach-stackers and cranes can quickly retrieve the correct unit.
