Telematics systems provide visibility into the truck itself when it’s powered on, but how can you see your trailer while it’s disconnected, sitting at a warehouse? An RTLS trailer tracking solution paired with telematics gives you full visibility of your trailer no matter where it is. Trailer tracking holds significant importance in the logistics and transportation industry with the increasing complexity of supply chains. Trailer tracking enables your company to monitor the real-time location, status, and utilization of their trailers, ensuring better operational control and enhanced efficiency. By having accurate visibility into the whereabouts of trailers, companies can optimize routing, reduce idle time, and improve overall fleet management. Trailer tracking also plays a vital role in improving customer service by providing accurate delivery estimates and minimizing delays. Furthermore, it helps prevent theft, recover lost assets, and maintain compliance with regulatory requirements. In summary, trailer tracking empowers your company to streamline operations, reduce costs, and deliver superior service, making it an indispensable tool in the logistics and transportation sector.
