Trailer trackers, network and platform from one company
GPS trailer tracking means fitting each trailer with a GPS tracker that reports its location to one live map. You see where every trailer is, get an alert when one leaves a site, and spot trailers sitting idle. GPX supplies the trackers, the network and the platform, with hardware and service in one subscription.
Trailer tracking solutions for commercial fleets
A trailer tracking solution answers three questions for every trailer you run: where is it, is it safe, and is it working? GPX fits each trailer with a tracker and reports its location to one live map. It flags trailers that leave a site without permission or sit unused in a yard. You stop doing yard checks and calling drivers to find a trailer.
Trailer location, live and historical
See every trailer on one live map, whether it is on the road, at a customer dock or parked in a drop lot. Each GPX tracker reports its GPS position to the platform, so dispatchers can find the nearest empty trailer without phoning a driver or walking the yard. Open any trailer to see its location history: where it stopped, how long it stayed and when it moved again. That history shows which customers hold trailers too long and which yards collect idle units. Set geofences around your yards, terminals and customer sites, and the map shows how many trailers sit inside each one. Scout AI can geofence every site in seconds, so you do not have to draw each boundary by hand.
Trailer security
Scout AI geofences every yard and customer site in seconds. If a trailer moves when it should not, an unauthorized movement alert reaches your team at once. AssetTrack trackers are anti-tamper and IP67 rated, and AssetTrack Mini hides on steel with an internal magnet.

A commercial trailer tracking system has to do more than drop a pin. GPX combines rugged trackers, a network that keeps reporting, and a platform built around trailer location and utilization. Use the features below to cut search time in the yard, catch unauthorized moves early and put idle trailers back on the road. Each feature works with the trackers you choose for your fleet.
Draw a geofence around a yard, terminal or customer site, or let Scout AI geofence every site in seconds. You get an instant alert when a trailer enters or leaves a geofenced area. The live map shows each trailer’s current location, so dispatch can confirm arrivals without a phone call.
Trailers get lost in plain sight: parked at the back of a yard, left at a drop lot or forgotten at a customer site. GPX shows every trailer inside each yard geofence on one map, so your team stops walking rows to find a unit. Dwell reports show how long each trailer has sat at a location, which points to the yards and customers that hold equipment longest.
A trailer that moves at night or over a weekend is a warning sign. GPX sends an instant alert on unauthorized movement, so your team can act while the trailer is still close. Anti-tamper housings make the tracker harder to remove, and the live map plus location history give your team a clear trail to follow if a trailer is taken.
Idle and dwell analytics show which trailers have not moved and where they are sitting. Use them to put under-used trailers back to work before you lease or buy more. Regular reviews of idle units also help you right-size each yard and spot customers that keep trailers longer than agreed.
Trailer location data does not have to stay in one screen. GPX integrates with ERP, WMS and TMS systems through API, webhooks and data feeds. Trailer positions, geofence events and dwell times reach the systems your dispatch and finance teams already use. That keeps trailer status in step across departments without manual updates or spreadsheet exports.
Dollies, chassis, straps and loading equipment go missing as often as trailers do. AssetTag Pro is a Bluetooth tag you hang, stick or screw onto that gear. It is picked up by phones and devices already in the field across a network of 150 million gateways, so it needs no GPX gateway on site. Each tag ships activated, with no app pairing.
Trailers work differently in every operation. Logistics fleets track dry vans across drop lots, construction firms move equipment trailers between job sites, and rental firms track units out with customers. GPX serves operators in many industries, and the same live map, geofences and idle reports adapt to each one. See how GPX works in your industry.
A stolen or misplaced trailer costs you the unit, the load and the work it was meant to do. Geofences and unauthorized movement alerts catch a problem early. Location history shows where the trailer went, and idle reports stop trailers from going missing quietly in a yard. Read more about asset loss prevention.
Most trailers have no reliable power, so most fleets choose a battery tracker. AssetTrack mounts by magnet with no wiring, AssetTrack Charge is rechargeable, and AssetTrack Mini hides on steel. For trailers with power, RoadTrack Wired installs with two wires and reports a fix every 400 m while moving. Battery life runs up to 5 years, depending on device.
GPX builds the trackers, the network and the platform, so you work with one company from the device on the trailer to the report on your screen. Hardware and service come together in one subscription, so there is no separate hardware purchase to plan for.
Trailers sit outside in rain, dust and road spray, so GPX trackers are built for it. AssetTrack, AssetTrack Charge and AssetTrack Mini are IP67 rated with anti-tamper housings, and AssetTrack mounts by magnet with no wiring. The platform puts that data to work: a live map, geofences, unauthorized movement alerts, and idle and dwell reports. Scout AI answers plain-language questions about your trailers, so you do not have to build a report to get an answer.
A trailer tracking rollout should not take a quarter. GPX deployments go live in days, not quarters: battery trackers mount without wiring, AssetTag Pro ships activated with no app pairing, and Scout AI geofences every site in seconds. Your team can see the first trailers on the map soon after the trackers go on, then add the rest of the fleet at its own pace.
GPX is built for operations with 10 or more high-value assets, from a regional fleet with a few dozen trailers to a national operation spread across many yards. You add trailers as the fleet grows, and every unit appears on the same map with the same alerts and reports. Integration with ERP, WMS and TMS systems through API, webhooks and data feeds keeps trailer data flowing to the systems you already run. The platform fits your process instead of replacing it.

Most trailers are tracked with AssetTrack, a battery GPS tracker that needs no wiring, or AssetTrack Mini where a smaller, hidden unit fits better. Trailers with power can use RoadTrack Wired, and AssetTag Pro covers dollies and loose gear. For the trucks themselves, see fleet tracking. See every GPX tracking solution or all industries.
GPS Trailer Tracking FAQ
Straight answers on trailer trackers, alerts, battery life, installation and cost.
Fit the trailer with a GPS tracker and open the GPX platform: each trailer appears on one live map with its current location. You do not need drivers to call in or a yard check to find it. Open any trailer to see its location history, including where it stopped and how long it stayed. Scout AI also answers questions such as which trailers are at a given yard right now.
A trailer tracker is a GPS device mounted on a trailer that reports its location over a cellular network to a tracking platform. Battery trackers such as AssetTrack mount by magnet with no wiring, while hardwired units such as RoadTrack Wired run on trailer power. The platform turns those location reports into a live map, geofence alerts and idle reports for your fleet.
GPX does not offer a no-fee tracker. A tracker needs a network to report its location, and that network has an ongoing cost. GPX bundles the tracker, the network and the platform in one subscription, so there is no separate hardware purchase to make. You get live location, alerts and reports for every trailer under a single plan.
Yes. Set a geofence around a yard, terminal or customer site, or let Scout AI geofence every site in seconds. When a trailer enters or leaves that area, GPX sends an instant alert. If a trailer moves when it should be parked, an unauthorized movement alert fires so your team can act while it is still close by.
Cost depends on how many trailers you track and which devices fit them, such as battery trackers, hardwired units or Bluetooth tags for loose gear. Hardware and service come together in one subscription, so there is no separate hardware purchase. The fastest way to get a quote for your fleet is a short demo where we match devices to your trailers. Get started here.
Battery life runs up to 5 years, depending on device and how often it reports. Battery trackers suit most trailers because they need no wiring. AssetTrack Charge is rechargeable, so you top it up instead of replacing it. Trailers with power can use RoadTrack Wired, which runs on trailer power and keeps a 24-hour backup battery if power drops.
Most trailer trackers need no installer. AssetTrack and AssetTrack Mini attach to steel with a magnet, and AssetTrack Mini can hide out of sight. RoadTrack Wired uses a 2-wire install for trailers with power. Bluetooth tags such as AssetTag Pro hang, stick or screw onto dollies and gear and ship activated, with no app pairing. GPX deployments go live in days, not quarters.
Yes. GPX integrates with ERP, WMS and TMS systems through API, webhooks and data feeds. Trailer locations, geofence events and dwell times can flow into the systems your dispatch and operations teams already use, so nobody has to copy data by hand. We review your systems during the demo and confirm the best way to connect them.
