GPS hardware for trucks and trailers

Use a phone when the driver will keep Locate My Freight open. Use hardware when the tractor, trailer, or asset has to stay on the map even if the phone is in a bag, off, or with a different driver. Devices are sold separately from tracking credits.

Which device belongs on which asset

OBD-II sits in the truck. Oyster-class GPS sits on a trailer or other asset that may drop, wait in a yard, or move without the same phone. The desktop dashboard still shows location and ETA either way.

Truck
OBD-II GPS tracker
Plugs into the vehicle diagnostic port so the tractor reports location without relying on the driver’s handset. Choose this when the truck is the thing you must see, including after a driver swap. OBDII GPS Tracker w/LMF
Trailer / asset
Oyster3 GPS
Battery GPS for trailers and equipment that do not have a powered cab connection. Use it when the box, chassis, or asset can sit, get hooked by another tractor, or leave the driver’s phone behind. Oyster3 GPS Tracker w/LMF
Bluetooth Oyster
Oyster3 Bluetooth GPS
Same job as trailer GPS with a Bluetooth option in the shop listing. Pair it with Locate My Freight when the asset needs its own ping, not a ride-along on the driver’s phone. Oyster3 Bluetooth GPS w/LMF
Both
Cab and trailer together
When the tractor and the trailer can part ways, track both. The shop listing for a cab and trailer combination is built for that split. Cab & Trailer GPS Tracking

When the phone is not enough

The driver app is the right tracker when the person hauling the load will grant location and keep data on. Hardware is the right tracker when the asset itself must report in.

Phone first
Driver will stay with the load
Owner-operators and assigned drivers who already use Locate My Freight can share GPS from iOS or Android. App tracking credits still apply. GPS Tracking Mobile App in the shop.
Hardware first
Asset will move without that phone
Drop-and-hook, yard dwell, team drivers, and trailers that sit over a weekend are hardware jobs. A denied location prompt on a phone cannot cover a trailer that left the lot.
Credits
Devices are not credits
Start at $50 with 15 tracking credits. One-day loads are $2; multi-day loads are $4. Buy the tracker once, then spend credits on the loads you actually need to see. Tracking prices
