FAQ’s Trailer Tracking
How does GPS trailer tracking work?
GPS asset tracking devices for trailers are small, durable pieces of hardware that are battery-powered, solar-powered or hard-wired to the trailer’s power. The devices transmit data via GPS signal and send trailer ID, location, cargo data, and other sensor data using cellular 3G, 4G LTE, 5G, or satellite networks.
You can then monitor your fleet using a cloud-based software platform that allows you to manage asset utilization. Trailer tracking vendors should offer the hardware, network connectivity, a GPS trailer tracking software platform, and installation and support management services.
Is it expensive to implement trailer tracking solutions?
Business goals with specific data requirements determine the cost of your trailer tracking solution. However, there are cost-effective options for companies interested in starting with location data only.
We offer a scalable, single solution with many sensor options, reporting features, mobile technology, and data integrations for those looking for strategic, operational data such as volumetric capabilities, and maintenance data to support proactive maintenance based on a trailer’s usage and road-worthiness.
All play a vital role in the cost of your trailer tracking management system, and we have just the right tracking solution for your needs.

Most asset tracking devices are weatherproof and waterproof, with rechargeable batteries that can withstand the harshest of elements. Some devices are also certified as intrinsically safe equipment for chemical, gas, or fuel transport.
We offer a portfolio of devices to support mixed fleets of dry vans, flatbeds, intermodal assets (chassis and containers), reefers, and other assorted unpowered assets.
Can trailer tracking help with yard management?
Trailer management is the foundation of a successful transportation and logistics business. GPS trailer tracking can speed up the time it takes to identify where your trailers are in the yard and if they are ready to be dispatched.
