5–15% Ghost Fleet
At any given time, 5–15% of a rental fleet is unaccounted for. Not on rent, not in the yard, status unknown. Manual counts go stale within days.
Industry
At any given time, 5-15% of a rental fleet may be unaccounted for - not on rent, not in the yard, status unknown. TagLogger closes that gap so branch and ops teams can make utilization and recovery decisions based on real data.
Rental inventory constantly moves between customers, yards, and branches. Between physical counts, 5–15% of the fleet may be unaccounted for — not on rent, not in the yard, status unknown. Traditional GPS costs $15–30 per asset per month.

A significant share of rental contracts go past their return date. Without location data, recovery teams start from zero with phone calls.
Traditional GPS tracking runs $15–30 per asset per month in cellular fees alone. For a 200-unit fleet, that's $36,000–$72,000 a year.
Average time utilization sits around 60–70%. Every idle day at the wrong branch is lost revenue that visibility could prevent.

Role-based access with per-tag visibility
Rental inventory constantly moves between customers, yards, and branches. Manual yard audits consume hours of labor and the data goes stale within days. Between counts, equipment can be overdue, misplaced, or sitting idle at the wrong branch - and nobody knows until someone checks.
TagLogger replaces point-in-time physical counts with continuous visibility. Branch managers and dispatch teams can see where assets were last active, so recovery and rebalancing decisions happen faster and with better data.
How TagLogger Helps
80–90%
Less Than GPS Cost
AirTags at $29 each with no cellular fees vs. $15–30/month per device for GPS. Practical to track assets that never justified GPS.
5–15%
Fleet Visibility Gap Closed
Continuous location data eliminates the ghost fleet — know what's in the yard, what's out, and what's overdue without physical counts.
Evidence
For Every Dispute
Movement history turns he-said-she-said into documented fact during rental closeout and damage claims.
Begin with the asset categories that drive the most shrink and margin risk - typically generators, compactors, light towers, and trailers. Set geofences for yards and depots, assign alert ownership, and build return-monitoring workflows.
As the process proves out, expand to additional inventory classes and branches using the same naming and alert standards.
Average time utilization across general rental fleets sits around 60-70%. Every idle day at the wrong location is lost revenue. When branch and ops teams share real-time movement context, they can reposition equipment before utilization drops.
Last-seen data also reduces the labor spent chasing overdue returns - recovery teams have a starting point instead of starting from zero.
Traditional GPS tracking costs $15-30/asset/month in cellular fees alone. TagLogger uses AirTags with no per-device cellular fees - making it practical to track assets that never justified GPS.
Replace monthly physical counts with always-on location data. Know what's in the yard, what's out, and what's overdue - without pulling staff for manual audits.
Movement history shows where equipment was throughout the rental window, turning he-said-she-said into documented fact during closeout and claims.
Choose the hardware format that fits your operations, from compact tags to long-life, water-resistant deployment.
Use live visibility and history to cut shrink and increase return confidence.
