Myth: Locks and seals are enough to protect a trailer.
Reality: Thieves know how to bypass traditional defenses in seconds, and without real-time visibility, you may not even know it happened until it’s too late.
Solution: With real-time door open/close alerts and geofencing, you’ll know the moment a trailer is accessed. You can act fast, deter theft, and maintain full cargo custody.

STAY SECURE AND COMPLIANT
A trailer cargo theft security system is a dedicated platform of technologies and devices designed to prevent unauthorized access to a trailer and its cargo. It goes beyond standard locks by using sensors, GPS tracking, and real-time alerts to detect and deter theft, whether the trailer is in transit or unattended in a yard.
This is a key feature. These systems have their own independent power source (often a long-life battery, sometimes supplemented by solar panels) and a cellular connection. This allows door sensors, motion detectors, and GPS trackers to remain active and send immediate alerts to security personnel, even when the trailer is disconnected from the tractor and sitting for days or weeks.
Yes,but they’re not perfect. Wheel locks are good as deterrents and they make stealing harder and more time-consuming, but a determined thief with tools can defeat many of them.
Yes, people steal enclosed trailers, with trailer theft being a significant and growing problem because of their value and potential for large profits. Thieves often target trailers that are unsecured, easy to hitch, or stored in easily accessible locations, making security measures crucial for prevention.
Trailer theft is a serious and fairly common problem, especially for smaller/utility/enclosed trailers. Theft rates are rising, and recovery rates are often low.
