So, you will have to check and ask the GPS provider in advance whether the system has any hidden fees such as:
- Activation Fees;
- Internet Usage Fees;
- Special Software Fees;
Still, as my experience says, the best GPS device does not bring any additional fees. So the choice is yours.
4. Carefully Check The GPS Contract Details
So, you have decided which the best GPS tracking device for your fleet is, and now the next step that you have to take is to sign the GPS contract. Well, in that case, I would like to suggest you not to hurry and to take into check carefully the contract details.
Here are few questions that you have to ask yourself and check before signing the GPS contract:
- What will happen to your monthly rate after your contract is up?
- Is a month-to-month agreement available? How does that affect the quoted price?
- What happens after your X-number of year’s contract is up? Do you own the equipment at that point?
You should get the most realistic answers possible because these are the essential ones in the process of determining whether the potential best GPS you want to buy is the best choice for your trucking company’s fleet.
