Remote yard monitoring in Garland
Live agents and AI cameras watch Garland truck yards, trailer lots and warehouses around the clock, run gates remotely and call police the moment something is wrong.
Local and live
Where I-635, I-30 and the Bush Turnpike meet
Garland's industrial base runs to almost 60 million square feet, built up around the junction of I-635, I-30, the President George Bush Turnpike and State Highway 78. The Dallas, Garland and Northeastern short line and CPKC both carry rail freight through the city, and distribution operators keep leasing space there even as it tightens — a 517,500-square-foot lease signed in 2026 was described as the submarket's largest in a decade. Long-running manufacturers, including a food plant that has operated in Garland for more than 75 years and several hat makers, sit alongside newer trucking and distribution tenants.
FBI 2024 data shows Garland recorded 988 motor vehicle thefts that year, equal to about 401 for every 100,000 residents and close to 55 percent above the national figure. In April 2026, Garland police said a months-long investigation had broken up a crew accused of stealing at least 25 older-model Chevrolet, GMC and Dodge trucks and work vans worth more than $62,000, with five suspects arrested and charged with engaging in organized criminal activity. Work trucks and vans left in yards and lots overnight are what that crew is accused of targeting.
Sigma's agents watch every camera on a Garland yard live, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, including nights, weekends and holidays. AI person and vehicle detection flags movement among parked trucks and trailers, an agent checks the live video, gives a live, instant talk-down through the site's speakers and calls police and your contacts, with video clips and a written report to follow. Gate Operations checks each driver against your pickup lists before opening the gate remotely.
On the record: In April 2026, Garland police announced the arrest of five suspects accused of stealing at least 25 older-model Chevrolet, GMC and Dodge trucks and work vans worth more than $62,000 in a months-long organized theft investigation that began in November 2025.

FAQ
Garland monitoring questions
Can you watch our truck and work-van lot off I-635 or the Bush Turnpike?
Yes. Live agents cover the cameras at all hours, every day of the year. AI person and vehicle detection flags movement among the parked vehicles, the agent verifies it on video, gives a live, instant talk-down through the site's speakers and escalates to police and your contacts.
Can agents check drivers arriving at a Garland yard after hours?
Yes, with Gate Operations. Each driver who pulls up is greeted through the gate speakers, checked against your pickup list and let in remotely. The log records every entry and exit, and unlisted drivers don't get in.
How would a Garland business set up Sigma's monitoring?
The watching happens remotely. Sigma's technicians come to the site to install the cameras and speakers, and many compatible cameras already on site can be connected instead of replaced. Garland sites supply their own power, internet connection and gate.
