Track Rental Equipment Through Every Handoff
Rental equipment changes hands frequently. A generator may spend a week at an event, a compact excavator may move between construction sites, and a trailer may wait for collection at a customer property. GPS tracking helps your team check the reported location of an asset before scheduling a pickup or answering a customer question.
With Cube GPS, you can monitor multiple paired trackers through the same app and share access with selected teammates. Keep a record of which tracker belongs to each rental unit so the location on the map connects to the right asset in your business records.
Geofences add context to equipment movement. Set zones around the rental yard and agreed work locations, then review entry or exit notifications alongside the rental schedule. A location history check can help explain where an asset traveled between dispatch and return.
Make tracking part of your turnaround process. Before the next rental, inspect the mount, confirm the battery level, and test an update. Explain tracking to customers as part of your rental terms and assign someone on your team to respond to alerts and unexpected movement.

Product details
Cube GPS Pro is a rechargeable tracker with magnetic mounting and IP67 water resistance. Its battery life depends on reporting settings, movement, signal conditions, and use. Choose a position appropriate to the equipment and check the attachment at each handoff.
Location reporting requires an active Cube data plan and compatible cellular and GPS reception. Check coverage at the intended jobsite and avoid placements where heavy metal shielding or machinery components block reception.
Treat the app as a source of location information alongside your rental management system. Continue using your existing records for contracts, billing, maintenance, and returns. Each tracker needs its own service plan, so budget for the assets you choose to monitor.

FAQ
Equipment rental tracking questions.
What rental equipment can I track?
Suitable machinery, generators, trailers, and other valuable rental assets can be tracked when they have a safe mounting position, usable signals, and access for charging. Assess each asset individually before installation.
Can I monitor several rental units in one app?
Yes. Multiple Cube GPS trackers can be paired and monitored in the Cube Tracker app. Keep an equipment-to-tracker record and activate a separate data plan for each device.
Can I receive alerts when equipment leaves a jobsite?
Create a geofence around the agreed location and enable the relevant notifications. Alerts help you review reported movement, but the zone does not physically restrict equipment or establish whether a customer breached a contract.
Does location history show equipment operating hours?
Location history shows reported routes, stops, and movement. It does not measure engine hours or machine productivity. Use your equipment records or dedicated machine telemetry for those measurements.
How should I manage charging between rentals?
Check battery status before dispatch and include charging in your return inspection. Choose an update interval suited to the rental duration and monitor battery alerts during longer hires.
Can tracking help with a late return?
A reported location can help your team contact the customer and arrange collection. Confirm the rental status and site access before sending someone to retrieve equipment.
