GPS tracking for service fleets & work vans
See every cargo van, pickup, and utility truck on one live map — with nationwide U.S. LTE-M coverage, arrival verification, and after-hours theft alerts. Hardwired, no charging, runs alongside your ELD.
See your whole fleet on one live map
When you run a handful of vans and trucks, "Where's the crew?" shouldn't mean a round of phone calls. Every TP056 reports to a single live map, so you can see which vehicle is closest to the next job, confirm a tech actually arrived on site, and spot the truck that's been parked at lunch for ninety minutes — all at a glance. Geofences turn that into automatic answers: get an alert the moment a vehicle leaves the yard after hours or shows up at a customer address.
Because the TP056 wires straight into the vehicle's electrical system, there are no batteries to swap and no dead trackers to chase down. Plug-and-forget installation, continuous reporting, and a unit that TruckerPro pre-configures to your account before it ships — so it's live the day it arrives.
Why hardwired is right for a powered fleet
A battery tracker has to ration its reports to survive; a hardwired tracker doesn't. Vans and pickups already have power, so the TP056 reports location continuously — minute by minute — without ever thinking about charge level. The 10–30V input range covers both 12V and 24V systems, so the same unit works across a mixed fleet of cargo vans, half-ton pickups, and heavier utility trucks. If someone cuts external power to steal a vehicle, the internal 320 mAh backup battery keeps it reporting long enough to alert you and support recovery.
Heavier Class 8 work? The same device covers that too — see the semi truck GPS tracker page for the tractor-specific rundown.

What you get with the service
- Live fleet map — every van and truck on one map, updated in real time down to the minute, so you always know who's closest to the next call.
- Geofencing & theft alerts — automatic notifications when a vehicle leaves the yard after hours or arrives at a job site.
- Arrival verification & utilization — confirm techs reached each stop and see which vehicles are actually earning their keep.
- IFTA-ready mileage — GPS breadcrumbs roll up into mileage-by-jurisdiction reports you can export for IFTA and audits.
- Runs alongside your ELD — this is asset tracking, not an Hours-of-Service device. It adds location and theft protection next to your Samsara, Motive, or Geotab ELD, and is backed by the team behind TruckerPro TMS.
Tracking gear and job trailers too?
The TP056 needs vehicle power, so it's the wrong tool for anything you drop and leave behind. For enclosed job trailers, add the wireless TP057 trailer tracker — internal battery, magnetic mount, months of reporting with no power at all. For skid steers, generators, and other unpowered machinery, see the equipment GPS tracker. Most service fleets mix both: TP056 in every cab, TP057 on the gear. Not sure which combination fits?

Frequently asked questions
What's the best GPS tracker for work vans?
A hardwired tracker like the TP056 suits work vans and service fleets. It wires into 12V or 24V power and reports location continuously, with a 320 mAh backup battery and an IP67 rating.
Can I track a whole fleet on one map?
Yes. Every device reports to a live map with geofencing and alerts, and TruckerPro pre-configures each unit to your account before it ships.
Does it replace an ELD?
No. It is an asset tracker that runs alongside ELDs like Samsara or Motive, adding location and theft alerts without being an Hours-of-Service system.
Is there mileage reporting?
Yes — mileage and IFTA-ready reports, plus live tracking and geofencing.
Is there a monthly fee?
The first year of service is included with each device and there is no long-term contract. Contact [email protected] for pricing.
