GPS TRACKERS FOR EVERY NEED

What Is a Portable GPS Tracker?

A portable GPS tracker is a small, battery-powered device you can place in a car, backpack, pocket, toolbox, or travel bag, no wiring, no installers, no hassle. Just charge, place, and go.

Because they’re durable, lightweight, and 4G LTE-enabled, these trackers give you the flexibility to monitor vehicles, shipments, or personal items from the BrickHouse app with live, accurate location data.

I use these when I travel or lend out equipment. Setup takes minutes, and peace of mind hits instantly.

Why Choose a Portable GPS Tracker?

For families, caregivers, and anyone wanting clarity without complexity, portable GPS trackers are the easiest way to stay informed.

No Installation Required

Just charge, place, and track.
No tools. No wiring. No appointments.
Perfect for:

  • Short-term needs or temporary monitoring
  • Moving a tracker between cars, bags, or shipments
  • Keeping it discreet so it doesn’t get noticed or tampered with

Long Battery Life

Most of our products last days, weeks, or even months on a single charge, depending on the tracker and your reporting settings. That means more trust, less maintenance.

Great for:

  • Long-distance shipments
  • Tools or assets left on job sites
  • Checking in on loved ones without constant recharging

Real-Time Tracking

See location live, not “yesterday’s data.”
With updates as fast as every few seconds, you can view movement right from your phone, tablet, or computer.

Helpful for:

  • Confirming safe arrivals
  • Keeping an eye on new drivers
  • Catching unauthorized movement the moment it starts

Smart Alerts, Your Way

Make custom alerts so the tracker notifies you automatically; no need to babysit the app.

Common alerts:

  • Leaving or entering a specific area
  • Motion or movement detected
  • Low battery
  • Speeding

Alerts can be sent by text, email, or through your app, depending on how you prefer to stay updated.

Versatile & Portable for Everyday Life

Because these trackers aren’t hardwired, they work wherever you need them:

  • Family Safety: Teen or senior drivers
  • High-Value Items: Tools, trailers, luggage, assets
  • Short-Term Use: Rentals, loaner vehicles, or borrowed equipment
  • Travel: Keep track of bags and valuables on the move

FAQs

Do portable GPS trackers work right out of the box?

Yes. Just charge the GPS Tracker, create your account, place the tracker, and start tracking in the app. No installation, wiring, or tech skills required.

How long does the battery last?

Battery life depends on the model and how often you want real-time updates. Some trackers last several days, while extended-battery units can run for months on a single charge.

Can I move the tracker between different vehicles or bags?

Absolutely. That’s the benefit of a pocket-sized GPS tracker, it’s flexible. You can place it in a car today, a backpack tomorrow, and a piece of equipment next week.

Are portable GPS trackers waterproof or durable?

Many models are water-resistant or rugged enough for outdoor use. If you need something weatherproof for tools, trailers, or assets, we’ll help you pick the right model.

Can I set alerts for movement or leaving an area?

Yes. You can make geofence, motion, speeding, and low-battery alerts so the app notifies you automatically when your car or asset moves.

Is there a monthly subscription?

Most portable GPS trackers use a subscription for real-time tracking over 4G LTE networks. Plans vary based on how often you want updates. No monthly fees, devices use a prepaid tracking plan that you need to pay for upfront.
