GPS tracking for fleets and assets, nationwide and worldwide

GPS Tracking for Aerial Lifts and Boom Trucks

Korvatrack GPS trackers help owners locate aerial lifts and boom trucks, track engine hours, and keep high-value access equipment from leaving the job unnoticed.

Why track aerial lifts with GPS

Scissor lifts, boom lifts, and bucket trucks spend their working lives moving between short-term job sites, and that constant rotation makes them hard to account for. GPS tracking for aerial lifts gives owners a current location for every unit, so a lift is never assumed to be at a site it left days ago, and returns can be confirmed rather than guessed.

Korvatrack supports both powered and unpowered lifts through hard-wired and battery-powered trackers. Geofences mark yards and customer sites, ignition alerts show when a machine is started, and engine-hour reminders support inspection schedules. Fleet managers can review everything on one live map, in a browser or on the iOS and Android apps. Rental counters, dispatch, and crews can then work from one shared source of information.

The right tracker for aerial lifts

Self-propelled lifts and boom trucks have engine or battery power available, allowing a hard-wired tracker to be concealed inside the chassis for continuous reporting.

What owners use it for

  • Return and pickup confirmation

    Geofences around rental yards and customer sites record when a lift arrives or departs, so returns and pickups are documented with a time and place.

  • Engine-hour service reminders

    Inspection and service reminders based on engine hours and calendar dates help keep access equipment in condition without relying on paper logs or memory. Records stay current automatically.

  • Unauthorized use detection

    Ignition and after-hours movement alerts flag lifts that start or travel outside scheduled work, which is useful for equipment parked unattended at open job sites.

  • Locating units across many sites

    A single map showing every lift avoids rounds of calls to crews, and helps schedulers reassign nearby machines when a job runs short or changes.

Alerts that matter for aerial lifts

Choose the events you want to hear about and who should be told. Alerts arrive as push notifications in the mobile apps and by email, and each one is logged in the platform.

How alerts work
  • Ignition on outside work hours
  • Geofence exit from customer site

  • Maintenance due by engine hours
  • Unplug or tamper notification

Frequently asked questions

Can Korvatrack track a scissor lift that has no engine?

Yes. A battery-powered Korvatrack tracker attaches to the frame without any wiring and reports location on a schedule suited to its battery. This works well for electric scissor lifts and other units where a hard-wired connection is awkward or unavailable.

Is a hard-wired or battery tracker better for a bucket truck?

Bucket trucks are road vehicles with plentiful power, so a hard-wired tracker is the usual choice. It reports driving behavior, ignition, and location continuously. A plug-in OBD-II tracker is also a practical option on many chassis. Both options appear in the same account.

Can rental companies see where a lift is on a customer site?

Korvatrack shows the machine's location on a live map and its trip history, and shareable location links can be sent when a customer needs to see a delivery. This helps document where equipment was during a rental period. Owners remain in control of what is shared.
