Trailer GPS tracking

Managing trailers is a lot more effective when they’re fitted with GPS trackers, making it quick and easy to locate available trailers, while improving security.

These asset trackers are perfect for non-powered assets like trailers, and have replaceable lithium batteries with a long battery life. GPS trailer tracking devices have sensors that can send location updates, low battery warnings or geofence alerts to a mobile app or SMS.

Use trailer GPS trackers to manage all your assets in one place

Combining real-time asset tracking with GPS vehicle tracking simplifies your fleet management, and improves resource utilisation across your entire fleet.

Using one tracking system for all your GPS tracking devices not only increases efficiency, but consolidates your telematics reporting for better business decision making.

Run-time reports also help you to right-size your trailer fleet; unused trailers can be sold off or reassigned.

Trailer track with custom alerts

Our tracking solutions work with a range of different tracking devices so you can have the best trailer GPS tracker for your specific requirements, including custom alerts for trailer movements.

  • The trailer is moved outside a specific area (using geofencing functionality), for example, it exits or enters a yard.
  • The trailer is moved or accessed outside of regular hours.
  • An accelerometer can send alerts for impact, sudden braking or acceleration, and tipping events.
  • Maintenance reminders based on mileage.
  • Low battery warning (long life batteries can last up to 10 years).
  • An attached sensor (e.g. door open) detects a problem that needs attention.

Alerts can be sent in real time by SMS or using a mobile app (Android or iOS).
