Stolen vehicle recovery for vans, plant and commercial vehicles

Spot a theft while it is happening

The first few minutes count. Fleetalyse can alert you when a vehicle moves outside working hours, when it leaves a yard or site you've drawn on the map, and when it's lifted onto a trailer with the ignition off. That last one comes from the accelerometer inside Teltonika trackers, which picks up towing, so a vehicle loaded onto a low-loader still raises an alarm.

Tamper and jamming alerts

Thieves who know about trackers will try to cut the power or block the mobile signal. If the power goes, a Teltonika tracker reports it, using a small backup battery to send that last message. Most models also detect GSM jamming. Either way, trying to silence the tracker sends you an alert.

• Hide the tracker. A wired unit behind the dashboard is far harder to find than a plug-in.
• Treat an unplug or jamming alert as a theft in progress until you know otherwise.
• Keep a current photo of where each unit is fitted, in case you have to talk someone through finding it.

Help the police recover it

Report the theft, then give the police the live position and the route history. Look at where the vehicle stopped and for how long: that's often where it's being stripped or put on false plates. Never try to recover a stolen vehicle yourself.
