While both Terminal Tractors and Yard Spotters are used to move trailers, Terminal Tractors are designed for longer hauls within ports and industrial sites, often requiring CDL licenses. Yard Spotters are primarily used for short-distance trailer movements within yards or parking areas, often without the need for CDL. Understanding these differences helps employers and workers choose the right equipment for their specific logistics needs.
