Heavy Equipment Tracking
Know where your equipment is, how it’s being used, and when it needs attention. Track Star’s heavy equipment tracking software helps you reduce loss, improve utilization, and protect critical assets across your entire fleet.
Trusted by leading fleets nationwide
Know Where Your Heavy Equipment Is Always
Heavy equipment rarely sits still. It moves between job sites, yards, and rental rotations, often with limited oversight once it leaves the gate. Track Star removes that uncertainty by giving you continuous visibility into location, usage, and movement across your entire equipment fleet.
From excavators and loaders to dozers and rollers, every asset is tracked in one place. Operations teams no longer rely on phone calls, spreadsheets, or guesswork to figure out what’s available, what’s idle, and what’s missing. The result is tighter coordination across projects and fewer costly delays caused by equipment blind spots.
Built Around Real Equipment Problems
Heavy equipment tracking only matters if it solves real operational pain.
Track Star is designed around the issues that cost contractors and equipment owners the most.
No Losses
When assets move constantly between sites, visibility disappears fast. Track Star provides live location data for heavy machinery, support vehicles, trailers, and attachments so teams know exactly where equipment is without chasing updates across job sites.
Full Utilization
Idle equipment drains capital, while unnecessary rentals inflate costs. Track Star shows real engine hours, idle time, and movement patterns so you can rebalance fleets, redeploy machines faster, and avoid renting equipment you already own.
Premium Security
Heavy equipment is valuable and vulnerable. Track Star monitors movement, site exits, and after-hours activity, sending alerts when assets move unexpectedly. That visibility helps deter theft, speed recovery, and reduce downtime when equipment goes missing.

What You Can Track
Track Star supports a wide range of heavy equipment and supporting assets across construction, rental, and industrial operations. The hardware-agnostic platform brings everything together in one unified view.
You can track large machinery such as excavators, loaders, dozers, and graders, along with trailers and hauling equipment that move assets between sites.
Attachments and implements stay visible as they rotate between machines, while job-site tools, storage containers, and generators are tracked alongside service trucks and support vehicles. Rental units and short-term equipment can also be monitored without separating systems.
How Track Star Works
Track Star connects heavy equipment using OEM telematics, cellular GPS trackers, satellite devices, and BLE tags, depending on the asset type and environment. Large machines automatically report engine hours, utilization, and movement through existing OEM systems or installed trackers.
Smaller assets and attachments use low-cost tags that provide continuous location awareness around job sites and yards. All data feeds into a single dashboard that shows where equipment is, how it’s being used, and when attention is needed. Teams gain real-time insight without juggling multiple platforms or vendor portals.
Why You Need Heavy Equipment Tracking Software
Heavy equipment tracking delivers immediate operational value. Teams see faster equipment allocation between projects because availability is always clear. Idle time drops as underused machines are identified and reassigned.
Maintenance also becomes more accurate because schedules are driven by real engine hours, not estimates.
Accountability improves across crews and sites, alerts notify teams the moment equipment leaves approved areas, and reporting becomes cleaner for project managers, shop leads, and operations executives.

Track Star captures engine hours, idle time, and movement patterns, making it easy to identify underused machines and redeploy them to active projects before renting or purchasing additional equipment.
Yes. Track Star’s equipment tracking software supports BLE tags and cellular trackers (including battery powered / solar powered) that allow attachments, implements, and smaller equipment to be tracked alongside heavy machinery in the same system.
Track Star integrates directly with major OEM telematics platforms, pulling utilization, engine hours, DTC code data, and location into one dashboard for owned and rental equipment.
The system sends alerts for unauthorized movement, site exits, and after-hours activity, allowing teams to act quickly and improve recovery chances when equipment is moved unexpectedly.
In addition to location, Track Star can track engine hours, idle time, geofence activity, fault codes, motion events, and usage patterns to support maintenance planning and operational decisions.
