In transportation and logistics, trailers are valuable assets but some of the hardest to manage. Without visibility, fleets face blind spots, higher costs, and frustrated customers.
That’s why trailer tracking has become essential for modern fleets. Premium trailer tracking systems, like TGI Connect, are far more than dots on a map. They combine powerful hardware, smart sensors, and intelligent software to give fleets complete visibility and measurable ROI.
Why Trailer Tracking Matters
Always Know Where Your Trailers Are
With satellite-powered tracking, you can see your trailers anywhere even in remote areas with no cellular coverage. That means no blind spots and no guesswork.
Protect Your Assets
Trailers are a target for theft, and once they disappear, recovery is costly. Accurate tracking and geofencing alerts notify you the moment a trailer moves without authorization, helping prevent loss and speeding up recovery.
Lower Costs and Improve Efficiency
When you know exactly where trailers are, redeployment becomes faster and smarter. This cuts idle time, lowers rental expenses, reduces wasted fuel, and directly boosts ROI.
Make Smarter Business Decisions
Trailer tracking isn’t just about location. It’s about insights. With the right data, fleets can analyze dwell times, utilization, and idle patterns to optimize trailer use and reduce downtime.
Simplify Yard Checks and Maintenance
Tracking makes audits, inspections, and maintenance planning easier. Features like automated yard checks and dwell reporting replace manual processes, saving hours of labour while extending trailer life.
Build Customer Trust
Customers expect updates. Accurate shipment visibility and proactive notifications keep your customers informed, reduce “where’s my load?” calls, and strengthen relationships. (Customer Live Link)
