Automated RDN Storage Fee Accrual Alerts

Every morning, WebRun opens RDN, checks how long each recovered unit has sat in storage, logs the running fee to a Google Sheet, and posts a Slack alert for units nearing your payout or auction threshold.

In short

How do I track storage fees accruing on recovered vehicles?

WebRun checks RDN every morning for every unit sitting in storage, calculates the days held and the running fee at your daily rate, and logs it to a Google Sheet ledger. It then posts a Slack flag for units nearing your cost or days threshold, sorted by fee, so the most expensive units to hold get resolved first.

  • The most expensive units to hold get flagged before the fee balloons
  • A running ledger shows the true storage cost of every unit
  • Redemption and auction deadlines stay visible alongside the fee

Questions, answered

Does it release or auction the vehicle automatically?

No. It only tracks and flags the running storage fee. Any decision to release, transport to auction, or otherwise act on a unit stays with your team.

How is the daily storage rate set?

You give WebRun your agency's daily storage rate when you turn this on. It multiplies that rate by the days each unit has sat to get the running fee, and you can update the rate any time.

Does this account for state redemption or lien sale deadlines?

It flags days in storage and cost, and notes if a unit is also nearing a deadline you've logged, but it does not calculate state specific legal deadlines on its own. Confirm those dates against your state's requirements.

Put this on autopilot.
