A Dogged Pursuit Lauchlan Waugh from Waugh Concrete Grinding & Polishing shares a compelling story of how Fleetpin helped recover a stolen generator. “Our generator was stolen by some local scumbags, but thankfully with the help of Fleetpin, we were able to track them down. It was parked in their garage. Fortunately, with the sight of my three dogs entering their front door, they decided to leave the property through the back windows with the speed and urgency not often seen of men their age. Thanks, Fleetpin!” Lauchlan’s story emphasises the value of real-time tracking. Fleetpin not only located the stolen asset but also aided in its swift recovery. Being able to respond promptly reduces the risk of damage to the asset. A Worksite Rescue Margie Paris at Central Drainage and Earthworks shares a story of a stolen ute recovered with lightning speed. “Upon receiving a call that a ute had been stolen from a worksite in Rotorua, I hopped onto Fleetpin and could see the vehicle parked just 500 metres or so away. Our team parked nearby and waited for the police to arrive. The ute was recovered with no contents stolen as we were able to get onto it so quickly.” Margie’s experience highlights the significance of real-time monitoring and quick intervention. Fleetpin enabled her team to act promptly, minimising potential damages and securing a successful recovery.
