Hytrol & IBT

Together, we also have Chain Driven Live Roller, Zero Pressure, and Heavy Duty Gravity Conveyors available for one week shipping.

With our years of experience in providing material handling and storage systems and components, you can rely on IBT for the right solution to your problems.

All orders received up to 2 p.m. are scheduled the next working day, 24 hours later. Orders received after 2 p.m. count as the next day's orders and are scheduled accordingly. If the Jonesboro Stockyard ships late, regardless of the size of the order, Hytrol pays the freight!*

When Hytrol started the plan, way back in 1964, it was a completely new and revolutionary idea. Not one conveyor manufacturer had dared to offer 24 hour shipments of its conveyor line. Hytrol became the first. And despite criticism from competitors, the Stockyard was an instant success. It was another idea from Hytrol designed to provide exceptional service to the customer.

Today, the Stockyard continues to maintain a 100% on-time shipping percentage. The entire Stockyard staff is committed to providing this availability and service. Others have tried to copy it, but no one can match Hytrol’s record!

How the Stockyard Program Works

Hytrol Stockyard in Jonesboro, Arkansas
After your order is placed with your IBT, we go right to work, sending your order to the Stockyard. If the order is placed before 2 p.m. CST, it will ship the next working day. The order is entered using H.E.R.O.E.S. − Hytrol Electronic Remote Order Entry System. With H.E.R.O.E.S., the order is then sent electronically to the Stockyard. Sometimes orders are faxed.

The first thing the Stockyard does is categorize the order. They check to see if the order is a 24-Hour item (some are one-week). The pricing is checked, the order is routed to a trucking line, and then entered into Hytrol's mainframe computer system. Hytrol Material Coordinators look at each order and specify all the parts needed to complete the unit or units.

The parts are pulled, the unit is built and tested, and soon, your order is placed on the truck. And, if your item is indeed a 24-Hour stock conveyor, your order is on its way, many times in LESS than 24 hours. That’s the way we do it - for YOU!
