We install GPS tracking, dash and backup cameras and telematics on city and county fleets across Myrtle Beach, Horry County and Georgetown County, at your yard, sealed against salt air and scheduled around the tourist season.
The City of Myrtle Beach runs a bigger fleet than its population suggests. The city has about 35,000 residents but hosts more than 20 million visitors a year, and its Public Works Vehicle Maintenance Division keeps nearly 500 vehicles on the road, from police cars to garbage trucks. Solid Waste & Recycling collects across four zones Monday through Thursday, the Street Division handles streets, stormwater, beach pipes and mosquito control, and the water and wastewater crews serve everything east of the Intracoastal Waterway.
Horry County is the largest county in South Carolina by land area, and its population grew from about 351,000 at the 2020 census to an estimated 427,000 in 2025. County Fleet Service on Privetts Road in Conway maintains more than 1,200 vehicles and pieces of equipment. Horry County Fire Rescue is a combination career and volunteer department that covers fire in the unincorporated county and EMS for the whole county, and the Department of Airports runs four fields: Myrtle Beach International, Conway-Horry County, Grand Strand and Loris-Twin City.
Law enforcement here is set up differently from anywhere else in the state. The Horry County Police Department patrols the unincorporated county and is the only county police department in South Carolina, while the Sheriff's Office runs the J. Reuben Long Detention Center, courthouse security and warrant service. Add the police departments in Myrtle Beach, North Myrtle Beach, Conway and Surfside Beach and there are a lot of marked units across the Strand, each with its own camera and tracking needs.
South of the county line, Georgetown County, the City of Georgetown and Pawleys Island run their own public works, sheriff and road fleets, and the Georgetown County Sheriff's Office handles its fleet purchasing and maintenance through its Operations Unit. Coast RTA links both counties with buses from 9 to 40 passengers plus paratransit vans, running out of Conway. We install on every one of these vehicle types at your own yard or motor pool.
Every install is sealed and routed for coastal duty, on the platform you already chose.
Live location for patrol units, sanitation trucks, EMS and road crews spread from Little River to Winyah Bay. When a storm moves the fleet inland, dispatch still sees where every unit is. We fit Geotab, Samsara, Motive, Verizon Connect, Powerfleet, CalAmp and other platforms, mounted inside the cab and away from spray.
Forward and driver-facing cameras for police and county units, and backup and side cameras for packers and utility trucks working Ocean Boulevard crowds in July. We wire police in-car video to lights and siren triggers so it works alongside your body-worn cameras, and we install Lytx, Netradyne and the camera lines from the major telematics brands.
PTO, engine hours and fault codes reported from the truck instead of a clipboard, so the shop in Conway or Myrtle Beach sees problems before a unit fails in peak season. We tap ignition and PTO at the correct points, because a bad tap gives you bad data, and we document every unit so your mechanics know what is in each vehicle.
The off-season, roughly November through February, is the easiest window, because that is when a Grand Strand fleet can spare a truck for a few hours. In summer the same city of about 35,000 residents is serving crowds that add up to more than 20 million visitors a year, and every sanitation truck, patrol car and street crew unit is spoken for.
That does not mean summer is closed. We work early mornings before roll-out, evenings after the last route and weekends, a few units at a time so you never have more than a unit or two down at once. If your budget year forces a summer install, we plan it around your busiest days rather than against them.
Yes, and it is the most common reason coastal installs start throwing false alerts or dropping out after a year. Salt spray and blowing sand get into loose splices and exposed connectors, corrosion builds on grounds, and a device that is still powered can start reporting ignition wrong or losing its GPS lock.
We seal every splice, add drip loops so water runs away from connectors, ground to clean bare metal, and mount trackers high inside the cab rather than under the body. On beach-access trucks and units that live near the water, we route harnesses away from wheel wells and underbody spray. It takes a little longer at install and saves you repeat service calls later.
Yes, and that is when many managers find out how much they rely on it. Evacuation traffic uses set routes such as SC 22 and US 501, with two sections of US 501 reversed, and in 2018 the Waccamaw River at Conway crested at a record 21.16 feet after Hurricane Florence. Knowing where every staged truck, ambulance and patrol car sits is worth more that week than any other.
If cell towers go down, most major platforms store data on the device and send it once the signal returns, as long as the unit stays powered and the wiring holds. After a flood, water-damaged vehicles often need devices pulled and moved to replacement units quickly. We handle that removal and reinstall so records stay tied to each vehicle.
It means two separate agencies with separate fleets, and it means planning for change. The Horry County Police Department and the Sheriff's Office have been separate since 1959, and in 2026 County Council has been discussing whether to merge them, a question that also came up in 2016 and went to voters in 1998.
Whatever happens, we install so the hardware can move with the vehicle's records. Clean, documented installs let a unit be re-assigned, relabeled or moved to a new platform without starting from scratch, and if agencies ever consolidate onto one system, we pull the old devices and fit the new ones on your schedule.
We work throughout Horry County and Georgetown County:
We cover Horry County and Georgetown County, from Little River and Loris down to Pawleys Island and Georgetown, and we come to your yard or motor pool.
Yes. We work before roll-out, after the last route or on weekends, and we work a few units at a time so only a unit or two is ever down. For large rollouts we recommend the off-season, when trucks are easier to spare.
Yes. We fit GPS, cameras and passenger-area camera views on buses and vans of every size, including the 9 to 40 passenger range used on the Grand Strand, wiring each so it does not interfere with fare, radio or lift equipment.
We pull the devices, test them, and move working hardware to the replacement vehicle, or fit new units where needed. The history stays tied to the vehicle record on your platform, so nothing is lost when a truck is written off.
Yes. We install the in-car side, including forward and cabin cameras, power, and trigger wiring off the light bar and siren, so recording starts when your officers need it and works alongside the body-worn camera system your agency uses.
We seal every splice, add drip loops, ground to clean metal and mount devices high inside the cab. Salt air and sand are the main cause of early failures on the coast, so we build every install on the Strand for them from day one.
