Driver Check-In: Find Your Appointment at the Gate

Last updated 2026-11-10

Arrived at the warehouse without a check-in link? Open the warehouse’s public page, tap “Check in with an appointment”, enter your phone number, confirm it is you — and your check-in pass appears.

Your carrier usually sends you a check-in link before you arrive. If you do not have it — or it will not open — you can still check in on your own phone from the warehouse’s public page on Yardor: a warehouse that has claimed its listing shows a “Driver check-in” card there, and its “Check in with an appointment” button opens the page this article walks through. (The QR poster at the gate is a different door: it is for drivers who arrived without a booking — see the walk-in note at the end.)

Check-in at a glance.

Step 1: Enter your phone number#

  1. Open the warehouse’s page on yardor.com and tap “Check in with an appointment” on the “Driver check-in” card.
  2. Type the phone number your carrier has on file for you — the number they used when they assigned you this trip — and tap “Find my appointment”.
  3. Searching is rate-limited on purpose: after a few tries within a few minutes — for the same phone number or from the same connection — the page asks you to wait a while. That limit protects every driver’s appointments, including yours.

Step 2: Pick your appointment and confirm it is you#

  1. You will see today’s appointments for that number, partly hidden on purpose (only the first and last letters of the carrier name, the last two characters of the plate). Tap yours.
  2. Enter either your full appointment number OR your truck’s full plate number, then tap “Show my check-in pass”. Picking the row is not enough by itself — this second check is what keeps someone else from opening your pass.
  3. Your check-in pass opens: a big QR code, your appointment number and plate in large type, and a short code. Show it at the gate — the guard can scan the QR code or type the short code.

If something does not line up#

  • “We could not find today’s appointment for this number”: check the number is the one your carrier registered for you (a personal second number will not match). Still nothing? Call the warehouse — the phone number is right on the page — or use “No appointment / walk-in” on the same card if you arrived without a booking.
  • “That did not match”: re-type the appointment number or plate carefully — spaces and dashes do not matter. After several wrong tries the page asks you to wait a while; the gate office can always check you in by hand meanwhile.
  • “This appointment was cancelled” or “Your assignment changed”: call your carrier first — they may have re-booked or re-assigned the trip. The pass is only issued for the appointment as it stands now.
  • Already checked in: the list marks your appointment “Checked in”. Confirm once more and you can open the same pass again to show at the gate — checking in twice is not possible.
  • The check-in page asks for your number again after a while: a phone lookup only stays valid for about 10 minutes, for safety. Just run the same steps again — it takes a few seconds.
  • No “Driver check-in” card on the warehouse’s page: the warehouse has not claimed its listing yet, so phone check-in is not available for it. The page still shows the warehouse’s public phone — call it, or let the gate office handle your arrival.

Arrived without a booking?#

Use the other entry on the same card — “No appointment / walk-in” — or scan the QR poster at the gate: both lead to the on-site registration for drivers without a booking, where you enter your details and wait for the warehouse to confirm your visit before you are on site. A warehouse that takes appointments only says so on the card instead of offering the walk-in entry.

For warehouse teams#

The “Driver check-in” card appears automatically on your public facility page once your warehouse is claimed, together with your receiving hours. There is nothing to switch on — keep your public phone number current, because drivers use it whenever a check-in does not line up.
