GPS trailer tracking for your fleet
Track every trailer in real time, whether it's attached to a vehicle or sitting in a yard. RAM's dedicated trailer trackers give you full visibility of your assets, wherever they are.
Protect your trailers with GPS tracking
Trailers spend a lot of time unhitched, whether they're parked in yards, waiting at depots or being swapped between drivers. Truck tracking keeps tabs on the cab, but without dedicated trailer tracking, you face real operational risks:
No visibility when trailers are disconnected
Standard vehicle tracking only shows a trailer's location while it's hitched. Once it's unhitched, you lose 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, they can sit unused in the wrong location for weeks. That ties up money in assets that aren't earning their keep.
Theft is difficult to detect quickly
Trailers are a common target for thieves, and without independent tracking, a missing trailer can go unnoticed for hours. Our guide on how tracking protects against theft covers the risks.
No visibility of cargo in transit
When trailers change hands or locations, customers and operations teams lose confidence in ETAs. For transport businesses, that uncertainty can put delivery windows at risk.
Manual processes slow everything down
Tracking trailers through phone calls and spreadsheets creates extra admin and leaves too much room for error, especially when trailers move between sites every day.

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 where every trailer is, you can respond faster, reallocate trailers when plans change and keep customers updated with accurate ETAs.
Faster response to theft
If a trailer moves unexpectedly, you'll know about it straight away. Live location data gives the police the best chance of recovering it quickly.
Improve asset utilization
Spot trailers that are sitting idle or in the wrong place and move them where they're needed. Asset tracking does the same for equipment.
Strengthen customer confidence
Give customers accurate updates on where their cargo is, even between vehicle handovers. Better visibility means more reliable ETAs and fewer customer queries.
Lower insurance premiums
Some insurers may take tracking into account when pricing cover. Showing that your trailers are monitored and recoverable can help when reviewing your fleet insurance.
Cut admin and manual tracking
Replace phone calls and spreadsheets with automatic location updates, so you always know where every trailer is without chasing anyone.
