BastionRecovery

Connect Your ELD.We Recover Your Detention Pay.

Hook up Samsara, Motive, or Geotab. Bastion spots detention from your GPS data, builds the claim with proof, and collects the money. You do nothing.

Carriers lose billions to unpaid detention every year

Your ELD already tracks every minute you sit at the dock. But that data just sits there. Bastion connects to your ELD, detects detention automatically, and files claims with GPS-verified proof — so you get paid for time you already waited.

The average detention incident costs carriers over $350 in lost time and revenue, according to industry surveys.

Detention time costs the U.S. trucking industry an estimated $15.1 billion every year, according to ATRI research.

While 94.5% of carriers charge detention fees, fewer than half actually collect payment — meaning billions go unrecovered annually.

The average wait time at shipping and receiving facilities exceeds two hours, with many drivers waiting three hours or more before loading or unloading begins.

How Bastion works

1

Connect Your Tools

Link your ELD (Samsara, Motive, Geotab) and TMS (Alvys, Turvo, Tai) in one click. Or just forward Rate Confirmations by email.

2

We Detect and Build Claims

GPS geofencing detects detention automatically. We extract load details, calculate what you're owed, and generate proof packets.

3

You Get Paid

We file claims with brokers, track responses, and collect. Commission-only — you pay nothing unless we recover.

Why carriers are choosing Bastion

We designed Bastion around what carriers actually need — not what looks good on a feature list.

No Upfront Cost

Commission-only pricing. We eat the risk. You pay nothing unless we recover money.

No Contracts

Month to month. If we are not earning our keep, you can walk away anytime.

Any Fleet Size

No fleet minimums. Whether you run one truck or a thousand — detention recovery should be available to every carrier.

First Claim Free

Try it risk-free. Your first detention recovery costs you nothing. Zero commission.

Connects to Your Tools

Samsara, Motive, Geotab, Alvys, Turvo, Tai — plug in what you already use and claims start flowing.

Built for Carriers

Not a side feature in someone else's platform. Detention pay recovery is all we do — and it runs on autopilot once you connect.
