Case Study: Summitt Trucking cuts trailer search costs by $500K+ with Spireon FleetLocate

National Truckload Carrier Switches Telematics Provider in Order to Ramp-Up Loads by 3 Times Per Week, Saving $500k or More Per Year

Summitt Trucking, LLC, a family-owned transportation and logistics company in Clarksville, Indiana, needed a better way to track trailers and sense cargo after losing trailers, wasting driver time, and struggling with an underperforming telematics provider. The company turned to Spireon and its FleetLocate telematics solution to improve trailer visibility and support its growing customer demands.

Spireon implemented FleetLocate with the solar-powered FL 22+ device and IntelliScan cargo sensor, giving Summitt near-100% loaded/empty accuracy, better trailer tracking, and a modern web portal with strong support. As a result, Summitt expects to cut more than $500,000 in annual waste, reduce unproductive driver hours, improve billing accuracy, and turn those savings into profit.
