GPS Tracking for Moving

14 May 2024

Moving can always be a bit nerve-wracking. If you’re moving, you’re already making a big life decision, whether it’s to upgrade or downsize to a different place within the town or city you’re already living in, or moving somewhere completely new.

Add on the additional steps of actually going through everything you own, packing it up, hiring a moving company, and shipping everything off, and you’ve got a million things to think about and stress over.

One great way to reduce stress while moving and ensure the security of all of your things is to use GPS tracking.

GPS Tracking for Theft

While we all hope and pray that our movers won’t steal anything (and ideally get a good reference), we can’t be 100% sure until after the damage is (or isn’t) already done. When a mover steals something, it’s easy for them to say they never saw anything, or it’s easy for you to forget about it in the first place.

GPS tracking can ensure that you know if anything is stolen and can easily prove it and recover any stolen goods. By putting GPS tracking devices on all of your valuable goods, you can ensure that everything makes it to the destination safely. If something is missing, you can quickly locate it and turn the information over the the authorities, allowing you to recover what you otherwise would’ve lost.

Geofencing

One great way to ensure that everything makes it to your new home and that you know if anything does get stolen is to set up a geofence. A geofence is a virtual boundary that will notify you if a device passes through it. For example, set up a geofence around the route from your old home to your new one. If an item leaves the route, you’ll receive an alert.

Keeping Track of Boxes

Theft isn’t the only thing you need to worry about when moving. There’s also the logistics of unpacking boxes and planning out what goes where. Marking boxes can only go so far. With GPS tracking devices like the Battery Asset Tracker, you can better keep track of your stuff by designating certain boxes or containers to specific trackers, helping you with the unpacking process.

Peace of Mind

GPS trackers will provide you with some much-needed peace of mind and alleviate stress during this tense time. Give yourself a break and use a GPS tracker when you move!
