Battery-powered GPS trackers give container owners and lessors location visibility across ports, rail ramps, yards and job sites, including units on the move.
A shipping container may travel by ship, rail and truck, then spend months parked at a depot, a storage lot or a job site. Throughout that journey it has no engine, no wiring and often no one watching it. A Korvatrack battery-powered GPS tracker attaches to the container and reports its position, so owners and lessors can see where each unit is without relying on paperwork.
Visibility is valuable for containers used as storage, offices and mobile shops as well as for those in freight service. Geofences at ports, yards and customer sites record arrivals and departures, movement alerts show when a container is lifted or hauled away, and tamper notifications warn owners if a tracker is disturbed. Trip history documents each move, which helps resolve questions about where a container has been.
Containers have no onboard power and are stacked, hauled and parked for long periods, so a self-contained battery-powered tracker is the practical choice.
Recommended fit
A self-contained, long-life GPS tracker for trailers, containers, unpowered equipment and valuable assets. Attach it and it reports on its own.
Container lessors and owners see every unit on a live map, confirm which customers hold them and locate containers that have not been returned to a depot.
Geofences at ports, rail ramps and yards record when a container arrives or leaves, giving shippers and carriers a clearer timeline for each handoff. Timelines help resolve questions between parties.
Containers used for storage on job sites can trigger movement and tamper alerts if they are lifted or hauled away without permission. Early awareness gives owners time to act and check the live location.
Trip history shows how long containers sit in one place, helping owners identify idle units and decide where to reposition equipment. Better placement reduces unnecessary hauling and storage costs.
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.

Learn moreReception depends on the container's position, since a unit surrounded by other steel boxes may have a weaker signal. Placement on the container and its surroundings both affect reporting. Korvatrack records the last known location and updates it when the unit reports again.
Yes. A battery-powered tracker can be attached to a storage container, and movement alerts then notify managers if it is hauled away or relocated. Geofences around the site also show when a container enters or leaves the approved area. The tracker needs no connection to the container.
Korvatrack supports fleets of any size, from a handful of containers to thousands of devices. Owners can view every unit on one live map, organize assets by customer or location and assign roles to staff who need access. Group views make larger yards easier to manage.
