Next Gen GO Anywhere

Decade-long, set-and-forget tracking for trailers, containers and every non-powered asset in your yard.

Stop sending technicians on manual “search and rescue” missions for trailers and equipment. The Next Gen GO Anywhere is a rugged, battery-powered Geotab tracker built for high-volume fleets — delivering hourly location updates for up to 10 years, with zero wiring, zero configuration and zero ongoing maintenance.

Built for scale, Engineered to disappear

Tracking non-powered assets across large yards or multiple job sites eats up valuable dispatcher and technician time. The Next Gen GO Anywhere is purpose-built for high-volume fleets that need reliable visibility into trailers, generators, containers and other non-powered equipment — without the cost and complexity of traditional hardware.

Designed for stealth and simplicity, it provides a covert layer of theft protection with no wiring, no configuration screens and no complex infrastructure to manage. Just install and let it run — for up to a decade.

Track Non-Powered Assets

Reliable Asset Visibility Without the Manual Search

Locating trailers and equipment across large yards, job sites, or multiple operating locations can take valuable time away from dispatchers and technicians. Next Gen GO Anywhere helps eliminate these manual search-and-rescue efforts by providing consistent hourly location updates through the MyGeotab platform.

Because it does not need to be connected to an asset’s power supply, the device is well suited for non-powered assets that may remain parked, stored, or unused for extended periods. Fleet managers can quickly determine where assets are located and make better decisions about dispatching, availability, and utilization.

Understand and Improve Asset Utilization

Next Gen GO Anywhere provides consistent location visibility that can help businesses better understand where non-powered assets are stored, how they move between locations, and which assets may be sitting unused. This information supports better planning, improved asset allocation, and more informed purchasing or rental decisions.

By managing non-powered assets and fleet vehicles together in MyGeotab, businesses can develop a clearer picture of their overall operation without switching between multiple tracking platforms.

Cut Risk & Costs

Low-Maintenance Tracking That Protects Your Bottom Line

Missing, misplaced, or underused assets can create unnecessary labour costs, operational delays, rental expenses, and replacement costs. Next Gen GO Anywhere helps reduce these risks by providing reliable hourly location reporting and improved visibility across yards and job sites.

Its long-life internal battery, configuration-free setup, and instant installation help lower the ongoing cost of deploying asset tracking across a large fleet. High Frequency mode also provides accelerated reporting during critical events such as theft, helping businesses respond more quickly and improve the likelihood of asset recovery.

Wire free Barra Edge

Why it matters for your operation

When trailers, generators and equipment go untracked, dispatchers lose hours every week hunting for assets across the yard or between job sites — time that should be spent keeping the fleet moving.

The Next Gen GO Anywhere eliminates the manual search. Deploy it once, and it quietly reports your asset’s location every hour for years, so your team always knows what’s on site, what’s idle, and what’s missing.

The “deploy once” design and industry-leading battery life remove the ongoing operational burden of battery changes and device maintenance — delivering the lowest total cost of ownership in asset tracking.
