Remote yard monitoring in Wilmer
Live agents and AI cameras watch Wilmer truck yards, trailer lots and distribution warehouses around the clock, run gates remotely and call police when someone shouldn't be there.
Local and live
Next to the Union Pacific Dallas Intermodal Terminal
Wilmer sits on I-45 with quick reach to I-20 and I-35, plus US Routes 175 and 67, and the planned Loop 9 project is meant to tie those three interstates together. Union Pacific's 360-acre Dallas Intermodal Terminal, which opened in 2005 inside Wilmer and neighbouring Hutchins, was built to handle 365,000 over-the-road trailers and ocean containers a year, with a biometric gate system designed to move trucks through well under the national average time. That rail hub has pulled in major distribution operations — Procter & Gamble, Unilever, Whirlpool and Ace Hardware among them — on what local officials describe as some of the fastest-growing industrial land in Texas.
FBI 2024 data shows Wilmer recorded 25 motor vehicle thefts that year, equal to about 369 for every 100,000 residents, and 34 burglaries, equal to about 502 for every 100,000 residents, both above the Texas and national figures. Verisk CargoNet's Thanksgiving 2025 advisory separately named Dallas County, which includes Wilmer, as one of four US counties — alongside two in California and one in Illinois — warranting particular attention for cargo theft. For a yard next to a terminal built around container volume, the exposure is the loaded trailers and chassis parked outside that terminal's own fence.
Sigma's agents watch every camera on a Wilmer yard live, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, with AI person and vehicle detection flagging movement after the day's trucks clear out. An agent checks the live video, gives a live, instant talk-down through the site's speakers and calls police and your contacts, and you get video clips and a written report. Gate Operations checks each driver against your pickup lists before the gate opens, and Yard Operations adds trailer damage inspections and visual seal checks on video.

FAQ
Wilmer monitoring questions
Can you cover a trailer lot near the Union Pacific terminal in Wilmer?
Yes. Live agents keep watch day and night, 365 days a year. AI person and vehicle detection flags movement among the trailers, 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 coming to pick up loads at a Wilmer yard?
Yes, with Gate Operations. An agent sees each driver pull up, talks to them through the gate speakers, checks them against your pickup list and opens the gate remotely. The log records every entry and exit, and unlisted drivers don't get in.
What's involved in setting up monitoring at a Wilmer site?
Monitoring is handled remotely by Sigma. Sigma's technicians come to the site to install the cameras and speakers, and many compatible cameras already on site can be connected rather than replaced. Power, internet and the gate come from the site.
