Also, if we get an emergency call from a customer, we can immediately see where our vehicles are and quickly dispatch the best vehicle for the job. We are able to provide better service to more customers."

"One of our service trucks was stolen overnight and we were able to recover it the next day through the MARCUS GPS system. The people who stole it ended up taking it to a chop shop and the police were able to recover our truck along with three other stolen vehicles and made several arrests. Along with the other benefits, the GPS ended up saving us several thousand dollars in equipment replacement. We appreciate your service."
