Remote yard monitoring in Cranbury

Local and live

Exit 8A's distribution rows

Cranbury sits right at Exit 8A of the New Jersey Turnpike, inside a submarket with more than 55 million square feet of warehouse space that developers call one of the busiest distribution hubs on the Boston-Washington corridor, about 32 miles from Manhattan. Large build-to-suit distribution centres keep going up along Route 130 and the roads around the interchange, and the trucks serving them move on to the Turnpike, Route 1 or Route 130 within minutes.

A lot of freight waiting at a Turnpike exit is also a target. New Jersey State Police said their two-month Operation Beef Bandit investigation ended in September 2024 with four men arrested after they were caught breaking into an occupied tractor-trailer at the Molly Pitcher Service Area in Cranbury Township, on the Turnpike at Exit 8A, and stealing boxes of meat; the crew was tied to nine such trailer burglaries and millions of dollars in stolen goods across the tri-state area over three years. A loaded trailer waiting overnight at a Cranbury distribution centre faces the same exposure.

Sigma keeps a live agent on every camera at a Cranbury yard, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, instead of a recording reviewed once a trailer is found broken into. AI person and vehicle detection flags anyone near the trucks once the lot empties out, the agent verifies it on video, gives a live, instant talk-down through the site's speakers and calls police, and video clips with a written report follow. Yard Operations adds damage inspections and visual seal checks on outbound loads.
