Description

How much money is your fleet leaving on the table by not managing trailers effectively? What if a simple, one-minute install could turn a $50,000 asset into a profit driver instead of a liability?

In today’s episode, Carl-Christoph “CCR” Reckers shares how FleetPulse has stepped into the market with practical trailer telematics that solve real problems instead of just throwing “dots on a map” at you. With its data-driven preventive maintenance, CCR discusses how technology is reshaping trailer utilization, safety, and security.

Plus, we cover why today’s higher interest rate environment is forcing fleets to rethink trailer-to-tractor ratios, how theft prevention and cargo monitoring tech protect your reputation and bottom line, and why automation is the key to stopping unpaid dwell time from eating into revenue!
