Truck tracking that brings it back.
CTN tracks trucks, tankers and trailers across every Nigerian corridor with live GPS, route replay, harsh-driving and idling alerts, and engine cut-off for recovery. Built for haulage operators who lose money to detours, ghost trips and stolen diesel.
GPS tracking, built specifically for trucks.
Running a truck operation without GPS visibility means you find out where your trailer went the next morning, from the driver. Most fuel-loss and route-deviation claims in Nigerian haulage trace back to that one gap. Truck tracking installation in Nigeria turns every truck into a live operational record. Live GPS every 10 seconds while moving, route playback across 12 months, geo-fence alerts the moment a truck leaves an authorised zone. Tamper detection, power-cut alarms, and a 12–24-hour internal backup battery keep the device reporting even when a driver tries to disconnect it.
NCC-licensed SIMs that survive past month one.
We buy SIMs in volume from MTN, Airtel, Glo, 9mobile under our corporate licence. Cheap competitors lose connectivity in 2-3 weeks. Your fleet stays online for the life of the contract.
Install crews that work to your dispatch schedule.
Night shifts, weekends, phased roll-outs across multiple depots. A 30-truck fleet typically fully fitted in 5-7 working days without losing a dispatch day. Crews work from Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt.
Pairings that make tracking pay for itself.
Truck Tracking is the foundation. Add Fuel Monitoring when fuel theft is the leak. Add Dual Channel Dashcam for insurance and HSE evidence. Add Speed Limiter when policy demands it. Upgrade to Fleet Management when ops needs role-based access.

How truck tracking in Nigeria actually works.

The hardware is the same engine we put on cars, ruggedised for the heat, vibration, and voltage swings of heavy-duty work. We are the truck tracking company Nigerian haulage operators, FMCG distributors, and oil-service fleets use because the install is local, the install crews travel to your yard, and the recovery network covers every state. Truck tracking installation typically takes 90 minutes per truck. A 30-truck fleet is usually live within 5-7 working days without losing a dispatch day. The truck tracking price in Nigeria is ₦150,000 per truck first year, ₦35,000 per truck annual renewal.
Truck tracking is the foundation. Pair it with Fuel Monitoring when you need tank-level readings and siphon alerts. Pair it with Dual Channel Dashcam when you need video evidence on long-haul routes. Add a Speed Limiter when policy, insurance, or HSE requires a hard speed cap. Upgrade to the Fleet Management dashboard when you cross more than a handful of trucks and operations needs one unified view. The trackers stay the same. The operations layer scales with you.
What it costs
Pricing for truck tracking starts from N150,000 , with a N35,000 annual renewal. Per truck. Year 1 includes GPS tracker hardware, professional install at your yard or depot, operations dashboard, 12 months of data, and a 2-year warranty. Renewals from year 2 cover SIM, data, dashboard access, and account-manager support. Pairings (Fuel Monitoring, Dual Channel Dashcam, Speed Limiter, Fleet Management) are quoted separately.

Where Nigerian truck operators install GPS tracking.
Trailers running Lagos-Onitsha, Apapa-Kano, Onne-Abuja. Live visibility and route playback if there is ever a dispute. Add Fuel Monitoring if siphoning is the real loss.
Multi-drop routes across Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt. Geo-fenced customer sites trigger automatic arrival timestamps. Route playback settles delivery disputes with retailers.
Once you cross five or six trucks, the basic dashboard stops scaling. Fleet Management dashboard upgrade (₦150,000 / ₦35,000 flat) gives operations role-based access and rolled-up reports.
A record you can check.
Questions, answered.
Does truck tracking include an engine immobiliser like car tracking?
No. Heavy trucks are rarely stolen the way cars are, and engine cut-off on a loaded 24-tonne tractor is a safety risk. Truck Tracking focuses on live GPS, route history, geo-fence alerts, tamper detection, and 24/7 recovery support.
How does truck tracking detect fuel theft?
The base Truck Tracking shows where the truck stops and for how long. For actual tank-level readings and siphon alerts you pair with our Fuel Monitoring service (₦650,000 first year, ₦80,000 renewal).
Can I see multiple trucks on one dashboard?
Yes. The base tracker dashboard shows every truck on your account on one map. For role-based access and rolled-up fleet reports, upgrade to the Fleet Management dashboard (₦150,000 / ₦35,000 per vehicle).
Can a speed limiter be installed with the truck tracker?
Yes. A Speed Limiter pairs with the truck tracker to enforce a hard maximum speed, typically 80-100 km/h or whatever your insurance, HSE, or corporate policy mandates. ₦100,000 first year, ₦40,000 annual renewal per truck.
How much does truck tracking cost in Nigeria?
₦150,000 per truck in year one. Annual renewal ₦35,000 per truck. Pairings separate: Fuel Monitoring (₦650,000 / ₦80,000), Dual Channel Dashcam (₦250,000 / ₦45,000), Speed Limiter (₦100,000 / ₦40,000), Fleet Management (₦150,000 / ₦35,000 flat).
