What trades fleets need from tracking

Trades vans are high-value, tool-laden targets. GRS combines live tracking with Shield's hidden backup tracker and a recovery workflow operated by the GRS team, so theft does not write off a working day - or a working week.

Where trades fleets struggle

  • Overnight theft

    Tool-laden vans are taken from driveways and depots out of hours.

  • Single-van blindness

    Without tracking, a missing van is a guess and a phone call.

  • Risk and insurance

    Speeding, braking and harsh-event behaviour drives insurance cost.

  • Customer attendance

    Customers want proof that the engineer attended on time.

  • Mileage and admin

    Manual mileage capture is a tax-and-time burden.

  • Cross-border work

    UK trades occasionally working in France need consistent visibility.

Frequently asked

Questions, answered.

Which package fits a small trades fleet?
Most trades fleets start on Shield because tool-laden vans face overnight theft exposure. Track suits lower-risk vans.
Can a single van get the same protection?
Yes. GRS configures packages per vehicle, so even a single-van fleet can run Shield.
Does GRS install Ghost Immobiliser?
No. GRS does not install Ghost Immobiliser. GRS offers its own optional immobilisation product for protected vehicles.
