GPS tracking for shipping containers
A shipping container has no vehicle power, so it needs a battery or solar GPS tracker. Traxelio shows where each container is, alerts you when it leaves a yard, port or depot, and keeps a route history for every handover between carriers.

Frequently asked questions
A tracker reports over the mobile network, so it cannot send live positions at sea or in areas without coverage. Depending on the tracker model, positions recorded offline are sent once the container is back in coverage.
It depends on the tracker model and the reporting interval. A longer interval between reports stretches the battery, and solar models recharge while the container sits in daylight.
Yes. Draw a geo-zone around the port terminal, depot or customer site, and Traxelio alerts you when the container enters or leaves it.
No. A container has no vehicle power, so container trackers run on their own battery or solar panel and need no connection to an engine.
