Steps
Install Samsara vehicle gateways on the tow fleet for GPS, diagnostics, and driver safety data
Activate the relevant Samsara marketplace integration for the dispatch platform in use (e.g., Towbook or InTow Manager)
Confirm truck GPS positions surface inside the dispatch software's map/dispatch board, not just Samsara's own dashboard
Use the synced location data to assign the nearest available truck to an incoming motor-club or roadside job
Monitor hours-of-service alongside dispatch decisions where towing operations are subject to those rules
Known gotchas
GPS-to-dispatch sync is only as good as the specific marketplace integration (Towbook vs. InTow Manager are separate listings); verify the integration is active rather than assuming GPS data flows automatically
Towing operations often qualify for HOS exemptions (e.g., driveaway-towaway, short-haul), so don't assume standard over-the-road HOS rules apply uniformly to every tow job
