Protect your trailers with GPS tracking

Trailers spend a lot of time disconnected from vehicles; parked in yards, waiting at depots, or swapped between drivers. Without dedicated trailer tracking in place, that creates real operational risk:

No visibility when trailers are disconnected

Standard vehicle tracking only works when a trailer is attached. Once it's unhitched, you lose all sight of where it is and what's happening to it.

Trailers go missing or sit idle for too long

Without knowing where your trailers are, it's easy for assets to sit unused in the wrong location. This ties up capital and reduces operational efficiency.

Theft is difficult to detect quickly

Trailers are a common target for theft. Without independent tracking, unauthorized movement often goes unnoticed until it's too late to act.

No visibility of cargo in transit

When trailers change hands or locations, customers and operations teams lose confidence in ETAs and delivery accuracy.

Manual processes slow everything down

Tracking trailer whereabouts via phone calls and spreadsheets creates unnecessary admin and leaves too much room for error.

Real benefits of trailer tracking

Dedicated trailer tracking gives you the visibility and control to protect your assets, improve utilization, and run a more efficient operation.

Fewer delays and missed deliveries

When you know exactly where every trailer is at any point, you can respond faster, reallocate assets when plans change, and keep customers updated with accurate ETAs.

Faster response to theft

If a trailer moves unexpectedly, you know about it immediately. Real-time location data gives the police the best possible chance of recovering the asset quickly.

Improve asset utilization

Identify trailers that are sitting idle or in the wrong location. Move them where they're needed and get more from your existing fleet without investing in additional assets.

Strengthen customer confidence

Give customers accurate updates on where their cargo is, even between vehicle handoffs. Better visibility means more reliable ETAs and fewer customer queries.

Lower insurance premiums

Many insurers offer reduced premiums for tracked assets. Demonstrating that your trailers are monitored and recoverable can directly reduce your insurance costs.

Cut admin and manual tracking

Replace phone calls and spreadsheets with automated location data. Know where every trailer is without lifting a finger.

Frequently asked questions about trailer tracking

What is trailer tracking and how does it work?

Trailer tracking uses dedicated GPS units fitted directly to each trailer. Unlike vehicle tracking, the tracker operates independently, so it continues monitoring location and movement even when the trailer is unhitched from a vehicle. Data is accessible via our web dashboard or vehicle tracking app in real time.

Can I track trailers alongside my vehicles in the same platform?

Yes. Trailer tracking sits within the same RAM platform as your vehicle tracking, so you can monitor trucks and trailers together from a single dashboard without needing separate systems or logins.

How long does the battery last?

RAM's trailer trackers last up to 120 days on battery alone. When connected to the trailer's side lights or Suzie connection, the unit charges wirelessly, so battery life is maintained automatically during regular use.

Can trailer tracking help prevent theft?

Yes. Geofence alerts notify you immediately if a trailer moves outside a set area or at an unexpected time. If a trailer is stolen, you have real-time location data to share with the police, significantly improving the chances of recovery.

How much does trailer tracking cost?

Pricing depends on the number of trailers and the contract length. Get in touch and we'll put together a quote based on your requirements.
