Your windshield replacement fleet represents your business across town and everywhere they drive. Which is why GPS fleet tracking is so important for your fleet and your business. GPS fleet tracking for your window replacement fleet may be one of the most important investments you make this year. These are just a few ways GPS tracking can enhance your entire fleet while building a better reputation for your business.
Improve Customer Service
Customer service is something that many businesses are allowing to fall by the wayside at their own peril. It is more important than ever, in light of instant gratification and widespread web reviews, to provide excellent customer service. GPS fleet tracking can help by allowing you to do the following:
- Arrive in the correct location thanks to frequently updated maps and excellent direction.
- Provide accurate time windows for your workers to arrive.
- Deliver prompt responses when accidents or emergencies occur.
- Dispatching closest available vehicles for timely arrivals.
These things all work together to reduce customer wait times, ensure prompt service, and avoid holding customers up from going about their days unnecessarily.
HLDI Reveals List of Most Stolen Cars

Two large cars, the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat and the Dodge Charger HEMI which are known for their powerful engines, made it to the top of the Highway Loss Data Institute’s (HLDI’s) list of most likely to be stolen vehicles.
Both of these cars have a claim rate for whole-vehicle theft that’s over five times the average for 2016 through 2018 models. The Infiniti Q50 which is a midsize luxury sedan does too. Almost all 20 models that have the highest theft rate are either pickups, luxury vehicles or those with big engines.
The regular two- and four-door Dodge Charger is another target. It’s marketed as “America’s mid-sized muscle car” and ranges from almost 300 to over 700 horsepower.
Pricey vehicles with horsepower, bling and pop culture appeal attract thieves, according to Russ Rader, HLDI spokesman.
Fall is a time for cooler temperatures, falling leaves and a whole lot of organic mess in municipal streets. While those beautiful yellow, red and orange leaves look great in trees, they’re not so great when they fall and end up covering the streets, leaving sweeping crews with a big cleanup on their hands.
Keeping your streets clear of fallen leaves is an important job too. It requires thoroughness, efficiency and dedication. But, when you have a large fleet and a tight budget, it can be challenging. This is where GPS fleet tracking for your street sweeping operation comes in.
How GPS Tracking Can Help Municipal Fleets
Here are some ways GPS tracking can help your municipal fleet during fall lead collection season.
- Improving Accountability and Efficiency
GPS tracking technology can help improve your municipal fleet’s efficiency in various ways. It can help you plan efficient routes through the review of location, speed and route data, minimizing this expense. You can use GPS data for a number of ways, including:
- Identifying areas that haven’t been swept yet (or those that have)
- Rerouting around traffic delays
- Locating and monitoring vehicle activity
