Saved our company from filing an insurance claim. Made the police officer smile and do extra patrols still to this day because we were able to assist them. Made us happy that the service worked and continues to work for our company daily." — Misty E.--"We had issues with theft of equipment from our property, and used the One Step system for a unique tracking setup.The sales staff were very helpful, explained exactly what we needed, and had us up and running within a few days.In one year the system paid for itself 5 times over.We caught one theft as it was happening, the web interface led directly to site of the stolen property, with a breadcrumb trail all the way to the building the stolen property was located in.They also recovered previously stolen equipment from the same search. We took two criminals off the street, and recovered thousands in stolen property. We are adding the system to more of our high-dollar assets this year. It is hands down both the easiest and most affordable GPS tracking system I've seen."
We have solutions to track any trailer or asset and report the exact location to you at any time.Receive immediate alerts by text, email, and in the app when a trailer or asset is moved out of defined areas (geofencing) or travels after usual hours.You'll receive the real-time location of the asset, be able to see it on your phone, laptop, or desktop. You can immediately report the theft to police along with all relevant information for speedy recovery.Don P. tells us:"At one point we had a piece of equipment stolen. The support and service One Step GPS rendered to not only myself but the police department was instrumental in not only recovering my equipment but also assisted in the police discovering a "chop shop" where several arrests were made and several autos recovered."
While there's no one definitive answer to that question, let's consider some of the best available research on the subject:
Commercial vehiclesThe California Highway Patrol published vehicle theft data for the state of California. The report shows that in 2020, 6% of all vehicle thefts were commercial vehicles.The same report shows a total of 194.876 vehicle thefts in 2021. If the percentage of commercial vehicles stayed the same year over year, then in 2021, there were an estimated 11,693 commercial vehicle thefts, which amounts to approximately 32 per day in the state of CA alone.
CargoThe FBI has estimated total cargo theft costs nationwide amount to as much as $30B in losses annually.CargoNet (an association of cargo carriers joined to help one another fight cargo theft) reported 692 thefts among its members, a 59% increase in cargo theft last year compared to the year before. The total theft reported had a value of $31.1M.
Equipment theftAccording to a joint 2016 report by the National Equipment Register (NER) and the National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB), there were approximately 12,056 equipment theft reports nationwide.The total value of stolen assets was projected to be as high as $1B.A remarkably low recovery rate (21%) for stolen equipment means significant potential losses when your company experiences this. Using GPS can greatly increase this for a small cost, which pays for itself in many more ways than one.
In North America, the five most stolen pieces of equipment are:
  • Skid steer loaders
  • Backhoe loaders
  • Excavators
  • Mini excavators
  • Dozers
According to Construction Briefing, a leading publication for the construction industry.The same report lists the five most stolen brands:
  • John Deere
  • Kubota
  • Caterpillar
  • Bobcat
  • Case
One Step GPS provides solutions to track all powered and unpowered assets for a total mixed-fleet solution.
Yes, numerous of our customers have reported the recovery of stolen vehicles and assets. Here are a few of their stories:"Van was stolen, police were able to recover it with help of hidden GPS within minutes after reporting the incident and location of the Van. I had to pay for storage & towing, yet recovered the Van." — Stephen G.--"We had issues with theft of equipment from our property, and used the One Step system for a unique tracking setup. The sales staff were very helpful, explained exactly what we needed, and had us up and running within a few days. In one year the system paid for itself 5 times over. We caught one theft as it was happening, the web interface led directly to site of the stolen property, with a breadcrumb trail all the way to the building the stolen property was located in. They also recovered previously stolen equipment from the same search.We took two criminals off the street, and recovered thousands in stolen property. We are adding the system to more of our high dollar assets this year. It is hands down both the easiest and most affordable GPS tracking system I've seen." — Sawyer N.--"Within 1 hour of installing it in our company delivery vehicle we were able to confirm our suspicions of wasted time and missing product. A delivery 6 miles south of our company resulted in a 40 mile trip north to a very bad area and then after stops at a Burger king, McDonalds and Dunkin Donuts, our delivery truck then traveled to and parked at a closed park for a half hour which allowed us the time to drive to the location and relieve the driver of his duties and retrieve a number of stolen computers that should not have been in with our other hardware deliveries. Thank you for the awesome product. Within an hour you saved us almost $10K in product we didn't know was removed from the warehouse." — John M.--"At one point we had a piece of equipment stolen. The support and service they rendered to not only myself but the police department was instrumental in not only recovering my equipment but also assisted in the police discovering a 'chop shop' where several arrests were made and several autos recovered." — Don P.--"Tracked down a stolen van live with dispatch, awesome!" — Dan J.--"Our company has been with one step for awhile. We had a vehicle stolen from our technicians house. With Adams help we were able to recover our vehicle, and supply the police with a detailed time line and location the vehicle was used. Without their product, it would have cost a lot of time and money and may still be in limbo!" — Lynn B.--"One Step GPS assisted in the recovery of one of our vehicles that was stolen during overnight hours. While our cameras caught the person who took the vehicle, One Step found the location of the vehicle within minutes, so we could notify the authorities, and retrieve the vehicle 5 minutes after location.We are now expanding our fleet, and every new vehicle and trailer will have a One Step attached to it. Our insurance is lower, because of One step, so the monthly costs are extremely equitable." — Linny D.--"I was able to retrieve my vehicle. The police department didn't want to do anything to help me find it. Without the GPS I don't think I would have. I was able to tell the police where it was and got my car back within hours of it being taken." — Joanne B.--"In 2022, one of our business trucks was stolen from a job site. Thanks to the GPS from Onestep, we were able to safely recover the vehicle. This is after several county changes and a state change in live time to track it." — Laura F.--"This morning I came to the office and was told that our F450 is not in the parking lot. I was able to check on the truck through the online system and sure enough I was able to see where the truck was parked. I called 911, filed a report, officer was at the office before I was off the phone with 911. The officer took the location I was able to provide her and had an officer from that town recover the vehicle. She gave me a ride to the secured vehicle and lucky enough for us everything was still in great shape. Thank you to Arlington and Marysville WA Police Department. We were able to recover the vehicle within an hour of finding out it was missing! Using the OneStepGPS.com system has not only been the most affordable on the market, in less than a month it has saved us a lot of heartache and time in recovery of our vehicle. I was able to tell the owner of the company the exact time the vehicle was stolen. This made recovering the security video footage flawless." — Misty E.
Yes!Set alerts customized to your operating schedule and receive instant notifications by text, email, and in-app whenever equipment is moved outside those hours.Terri I. tells us:"They were so easy to install and they keep very accurate detail of where our technicians are going all day.I love how I can map their routes and help provide better time tracking of our service calls. I wish I had found these a year ago, because it would have helped me with a dishonest employee and his falsifying time cards.It has alerts that text us when the vans are drove after hours and on the weekends, and the mobile app is just as wonderful as the website."
Yes!Set geofenced areas and receive instant notifications by text, email, and in-app whenever equipment is moved outside those boundaries.Bob S. tells us:"Absolutely love this system! It enables me to see where my drivers are at any given minute and provides feedback regarding their driving habits.When I get notification that one of my drivers is exceeding speed limits, is performing harsh braking/acceleration, or is outside our 'geofence', I can contact the driver and correct his actions immediately. There are many attributes that help, including live traffic, to keep my drivers on route and on time."
Thieves will sometimes leave a stolen vehicle or equipment in a parking lot. If it's still there after a few days, they know there is no tracker and take it from there.Other ways thieves search include looking in common spots for GPS installations. However, with a little work, you can make your installation look OEM and very hard to find.Some fleets place two trackers on each vehicle or asset: a plugin tracker and a battery-powered tracker; if the thief finds one and removes it, they don't suspect a second.We have recovered plugin devices while still in vehicles in chop shops, which shows how difficult they can be to identify.Our devices all have tamper alerts and battery backups; if removed, the device will send an instant notification via text, email, or the app. If the thief leaves it in the vehicle, disconnected, you can still track their location.
There are many hidden costs to vehicle theft that insurance does not reflect in a payout.The administrative hours spent documenting and reporting a theft, working with the police to file a report, coordinating with the insurance company, filling forms and filing legal documents, and finding and purchasing a replacement are work hours you'll never recoup.Often, a stolen car can wind up in an impound lot where fees can quickly accumulate; insurance companies generally do not cover this cost.It's also possible for your insurance premiums to increase, and often a theft on a vehicle history report can reduce its resale value significantly.Lastly, the hours your vehicle is not in the field or on the road are hours you can't service clients and can't bill for. If clients expect service you're unable to provide, they can lose confidence in you, potentially losing business and referrals.Lastly, the recovery rate on non-vehicle assets hovers around 23%, according to the National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB). If your equipment, trailers, and other non-powered assets are tracked, you can prevent misplacement, unnecessary downtime, and lost revenue while minimizing wasted time spent collecting insurance payouts and replacing stolen equipment.For all these reasons, the minor costs of tracking your vehicles can quickly pay for themselves.
