Smart Trailer Technology
XTRA Lease is committed to providing trailer technology that not only saves you time and money, but also makes your job more productive and efficient. We've always been drivers of trailer technology, raising the bar above what's considered "industry-standard".
NEW! XTRA INTELLIGENCE
In 2000, XTRA Lease was the first trailer rental and leasing company to offer GPS and cellular-based trailer tracking. In 2026, we took another huge step forward being the first trailer leasing company to provide a smart trailer rental and lease solution to the market. Powered by XTRA Intelligence, this technology combines XTRA's industry leading customer portal, myXTRA™, with an array of on trailer sensors and machine learning to revolutionize how fleets manage their trailers.
Advanced Real-time GPS location tracking allows you to view trailer routes, trip times, and miles traveled for up to 180 days. Spot route deviations, delays, and misdirected trailers with trip-by-trip history on a single map.
CargoVision provides interior photos. Machine learning measures available capacity, and helps maximize every loaded mile. Images are captured at key trailer events, including trip start/stop, door open/close, and geofence activity.
Door sensors indicate when doors are opened/closed so you know your freight is being handled promptly — and only when it supposed to be.
ABS Fault Detection alerts you when an ABS light or fault is detected, along with the codes to help pinpoint the issue. Address problems before a driver reaches the trailer to support safer, more productive operations.
If your trailer provider is only offering trailer tracking or acoustic cargo senor technology, you are potentially missing opportunities to get better operational awareness that drives results. XTRA isn't about adding more data, but delivering actionable intelligence that improves your fleet.
"Fleets don’t need more data. They need more operational awareness."
myXTRA™
With every rental or lease you'll gain access to myXTRA™, our powerful customer portal. myXTRA™ gives you easy-to-use tools to manage your fleet:
- Access trailer tracking, account info, alerts, invoices, and reports in one place.
- Know every trailer’s location, load status, and maintenance schedule—turn data into action.
- Stay ahead with real-time telematics and drive smarter decisions.
Reefer Telematics
XTRA Lease has added FREE reefer telematics to all model year 2022 and newer trailers so you can get two-way monitoring and control.
Reefer telematics provides all the reports, events and alarms needed to reduce fleet operating costs and ensure regulatory compliance. Protect your cargo with complete control of the reefer environment.
Fuel-saving Technology
We were the first trailer rental and leasing company to install fuel-efficient side skirts on reefers and dry vans. To this day, XTRA Lease has the largest rental fleet of aerodynamic trailers in the U.S. When aerodynamic side skirts are combined with our low rolling-resistance tires, customers save about 6% in fuel costs, according to the EPA.
