“The live tracking is a great asset,
you always know where your
trucks are, what routes the drivers
are taking. It allows us to coach our
guys. It helps us with traffic. The
maintenance reminders are
amazingly useful – everything is in
one place.”

“In the past, we had to phone the
driver and ask him where he was.
Now we’re able to get a
tremendous solution – over 3.5% on
our operational expenses, fuel
savings, payroll savings, and
management savings with our
staff and customers.”

Common questions about asset tracking, immobilization, and recovery for
rental fleets
How does 30-minute tracking work versus real-time tracking?
PosiTrace provides automatic location updates every 30 minutes for all rental assets, which balances battery life with operational visibility. During critical incidents like repossession, you can trigger faster updates to get near real-time location data. This approach provides cost-effective fleet visibility while supporting urgent recovery efforts when needed.
What is the web-activated immobilizer and when should it be used?
The web-activated immobilizer is a remote control feature that prevents a vehicle from starting. Use it when rental payments are overdue, contracts are violated, or during repossession efforts. Activation is simple through the web dashboard and helps prevent unauthorized use while protecting your assets. This feature is optional and can be added to specific vehicles in your fleet.
How do geofences help with unauthorized use detection?
Geofences create virtual boundaries around authorized areas like rental yards, customer job sites, or regional territories. You receive instant alerts when assets cross these boundaries, allowing immediate action on contract violations. Unlimited geofences support complex rental operations with multiple locations and customer sites.
Can alerts be customized by State or Province?
Yes! PosiTrace sends alerts when rental vehicles cross State or Province boundaries. This is critical for detecting unauthorized long-distance use, enforcing geographic restrictions in rental contracts, and preventing assets from being taken outside your operating region. Boundary alerts help you respond immediately to contract violations.
How does equipment grouping work for rental fleets?
Equipment grouping lets you organize rental assets by type, customer, location, or contract terms. This simplifies fleet management by allowing you to apply settings, track status, and run reports for specific segments of your fleet. Groups can be easily modified as rental assignments change.
What happens during a repossession scenario?
During repossession, PosiTrace provides faster location updates to help recovery teams locate assets quickly. Historical location tracking shows where the vehicle has been, Google street and satellite views help plan the recovery approach, and the web-activated immobilizer can prevent the vehicle from being moved during recovery efforts. This combination accelerates safe asset recovery.
How accurate is the historical location data?
Historical location data is based on automatic location points captured every 30 minutes, creating a detailed trail of vehicle movement. This data is stored indefinitely and can be used for contract enforcement, dispute resolution, and understanding rental asset usage patterns. All location data includes timestamps for verification.
Does this work for both vehicle and equipment rentals?
Yes! PosiTrace works with cars, trucks, vans, trailers, and powered equipment with electrical systems. The tracking devices are designed for easy installation and work across your entire rental inventory. Equipment grouping allows you to manage different rental categories effectively while maintaining complete visibility across all assets.
