The towing industry is competitive — businesses and recreational drivers want to work with a partner who can get them out of a bind quickly. Track Your Truck is your source for fleet management solutions enabling you to provide an exceptional customer experience. Connect a GPS fleet tracker device to your vehicle and pair the technology with your choice of software to start streamlining your operations.

Our tow truck GPS tracking technology is useful for dispatching drivers upon receiving a customer call. You can grow your tow truck business by paying attention to real-time updates about vehicle locations to respond as quickly as possible. Identify which of your drivers is closest to a customer to exceed expectations for service and leave a memorable impression.

How to Dispatch the Closest Tow Truck Every Time

Your customers depend on you to be there in a pinch, which means every second they spend waiting is a liability for your tow truck company. NetTrack software shows you where every one of your trucks is in real-time on an interactive map. That gives you the power to see exactly which truck is closest to the customer so your dispatchers can assign each job to the driver closest to it. At the same time, GPS tracking enables you to provide customers with up-to-the-minute ETAs rather than vague estimations. Research has found that using AI-assisted dispatching can shorten wait times by up to 20%, helping you satisfy your customers and build your brand. With plans starting at just $15.99 per month with free devices, smaller tow fleets can have the same dispatch intelligence as larger fleets without enterprise-level complexity and pricing.

How to Cut Fuel Costs by Monitoring Idle Time and Optimizing Routes

Fuel is one of your biggest expenses, and a lot of it is wasted while your drivers idle waiting for paperwork or at impound lots. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that vehicles waste roughly 6 billion gallons of fuel every year due to unnecessary idling. In addition, inefficient driving due to unoptimized routes can cost your towing company even more.

Track Your Truck gives you reporting tools that show you exactly where your trucks may be wasting fuel, helping your fleet managers reduce costs. With NetTrack, you can spot trucks that have been idling for longer than necessary and find optimal routes for every job. Industry studies have found that fleet tracker systems like ours can cut idling time by up to 30%.

How to Schedule Maintenance Before Breakdowns Strand Your Trucks

What’s more embarrassing than a tow truck that needs a tow? The truth is these vehicles work exceptionally hard, making the need to stay on top of maintenance all the more important. NetTrack delivers diagnostic code alerts and mileage-based reminders to you automatically so no important maintenance tasks slip through the cracks. This means fewer breakdowns, costly repairs, and unhappy customers.
