Trailer fleet management involves collecting, observing, and analyzing data associated with tow trucks and trailers. Through telematics devices and platforms, towing companies can monitor vehicle health, pinpoint locations, and understand usage trends. Fleet managers and dispatchers have the ability to oversee driving safety scorecards, determine the nearest vehicle for service calls, and observe driving behaviors such as speeding, harsh braking, and excessive idling. This information can be consolidated for comprehensive analysis, aiding in identifying both vehicle maintenance needs and opportunities for driver training.

Fleet Halo GO and MyFleet Halo also enable tracking of the location, usage, condition, and maintenance requirements of remote trailer enclosures.

The Flex TT600, a solar-powered asset tracker, employs GPS technology to offer insights into asset utilization and location through the MyGeotab platform. It measures trailer utilization, indicating the proportion of time a trailer is actively employed and generating revenue for your business.

By monitoring utilization rates of trailers, fleet managers can:

• Strategically plan trailer capacity for seasonal demand fluctuations.
• Assess the optimal mix of owned versus rented trailers.
• Make informed decisions regarding the acquisition of new trailers based on actual usage data.

The Flex TT600, a solar-powered asset tracker available on the Geotab Marketplace, gathers data and transmits it through GPS to the MyGeotab platform. This system enables the management of trailer utilization, location, and maintenance data, assisting in making informed decisions about when trailers require repair or replacement.

Fleet Halo devices are tailored for a broad spectrum of vehicles, encompassing modern light, medium, heavy, and heavy-duty tow trucks, as well as flatbed vehicles.
