Asset GPS Trackers — Plant, Tools & Trailers
Covert, battery-powered GPS trackers for trailers, generators, implements and plant left out across the farm.
So much valuable rural kit sits unpowered and out of sight — livestock trailers parked in the yard, a generator running a remote pump, the topper or fertiliser spreader left at the field edge overnight. Magnet and battery asset trackers are sealed, self-contained GPS units that simply clamp onto any steel surface and start reporting, with no wiring to a battery or ignition. Tuck one inside a chassis rail, under a fuel tank or in the toolbox and it keeps watch quietly for weeks or months on a single charge. If something walks off the holding, you and the police know exactly where it has gone.
Key features
- Strong Hidden Magnet. Heavy-duty neodymium magnets grip painted steel, galvanised frames and cast housings — staying put down rutted tracks and on the road.
- Fit It Yourself in Seconds. No auto-electrician, no downtime. Clamp it on out of sight, switch it on in the app and the implement is protected before you've finished your brew.
- 4G Coverage Across the Countryside. Reports over 4G LTE with position updates from every 10 seconds to once a day, so you choose between live recovery and all-season battery life.
- Weeks to Months Per Charge. A rechargeable internal battery runs from around 2 weeks on frequent updates up to 6 months on a daily check-in. Top it up over USB-C between seasons.
- Sealed for the Yard and Field. Rated IP67 against driving rain, slurry splash, dust and a soaking, so it survives life bolted under a trailer or wedged in a generator canopy.
- Movement & Removal Alerts. A nudge, a tow or an attempt to prise the tracker off triggers an instant alert to your phone — your first warning that kit is on the move.
What SIM and data plan do I need?
These trackers run on any UK network — EE, Vodafone, O2 or Three — so you can pick whichever has the strongest signal over your land. Most models take any unlocked SIM, meaning you can drop in a pay-as-you-go card or take a pre-configured one from us with data already loaded. Data use is tiny: usually under 1 GB a month, even when you're checking in hourly.
If your trailers and plant range well beyond the home farm — across counties or into Europe on hire work — choose a SIM with solid roaming coverage. Some units run dual SIMs and switch networks automatically if one drops out, which is worth having for high-value kit parked on remote, patchy-signal sites.
Frequently asked questions
Will a thief just find the tracker and bin it?
Each unit is only about matchbox-sized, so it tucks away inside a chassis rail, behind a wheel arch or deep in a toolbox where it won't be spotted at a glance. The moment it's disturbed or pulled off, you get an alert — usually long before anyone finds it.
How often will it tell me where my kit is?
You set the rhythm: every 10 seconds for a live recovery chase, or once a day to stretch the battery across a whole season. For a trailer or implement that mostly sits still, most farmers run an hourly or daily check-in and only switch to live tracking if it goes missing.
Will it still track if the trailer is towed off abroad?
Yes. With a roaming SIM these 4G trackers keep reporting across Europe, so stolen trailers and containers that are shipped or driven over a border stay on the map rather than vanishing at the coast.
How long does a charge actually last on the farm?
Expect roughly 2 weeks on frequent live updates, stretching to around 6 months on a daily check-in. You charge it over USB-C in the workshop and the app warns you in good time before the battery runs low.
Is there an ongoing cost?
Each tracker needs a SIM with a small data allowance — typically well under 1 GB a month even with regular updates. Fit your own SIM or take a ready-loaded one from us so it's working the day it arrives.
What about kit that isn't steel?
The magnet grips metal, but plenty of rural assets aren't — fibreglass canopies, plastic tanks, timber-bodied trailers. For those, cable-tie or bond the tracker into a hidden recess and it works just the same.
Can I watch all my equipment in one place?
Yes. One login shows every tracker you own on a single map, so a mixed yard of trailers, generators and implements — even kit shared across several holdings — is all visible from one screen on your phone.
