Remote monitoring for Merrillville warehouses and yards

Local and live

Where US 30 meets I-65 at AmeriPlex

Merrillville grew up around the intersection of U.S. 30 and Interstate 65, and that junction is now ringed with industrial development. AmeriPlex at the Crossroads, a 386-acre business park on 98th Avenue, holds a 141,360-square-foot Amazon fulfillment centre that opened in 2021, a Domino's dough-production and distribution facility, and a Big Lots distribution centre, and the nearby 196-acre Silos at Sanders Farm development is adding a one-million-square-foot building. Local officials say daily traffic through town tops a million vehicles in a 24-hour span, much of it feeding the warehouses and loading docks along US 30 and I-65.

All that retail and distribution activity also means delivery vehicles, trailers and loading docks sitting unattended for stretches of the day. In April 2026, a theft suspect fled a store at Southlake Mall in a vehicle loaded with stolen merchandise, with police in pursuit until the car crashed near U.S. 30 and Mississippi Street. A warehouse yard or loading dock left unwatched faces that same kind of opportunistic theft, just without the chase to catch it.

A Merrillville warehouse yard or loading dock gets watched the hours nobody else is looking, including after the last shift drives off. AI flags anyone moving through the property, an agent reviews the footage right away and gives a live, instant talk-down if someone needs to be told to leave, and police hear about it with a clip already attached rather than a description after the fact.
