How OpenYard works for your lot.

We automate bookings and payments. You set the prices and rules.

Step 1

Driver texts BOOK

Drivers text BOOK using the number on your signs or listings — no app, no account.

Behind the scenes: Our system instantly receives the text and begins the automated conversation flow.

Step 2

We collect details

We collect arrival time, truck and trailer info, and how long they need the stall — all by SMS.

Behind the scenes: Smart validation ensures accurate info while keeping the conversation natural and quick.

Step 3

Driver pays & parks

Drivers receive a secure payment link, pay in seconds, and get stall instructions instantly. Every booking appears in your dashboard.

Behind the scenes: Payment processes through Stripe, funds hit your account in 1-3 days, and your dashboard updates in real-time.

Every step is automated. You do nothing.

Good for owners. Good for drivers.
