Raleigh-Area Public Fleets

Which public fleets do we install for around Raleigh?

Wake County counted 1,129,410 residents in the 2020 Census, and the Census Bureau estimates 1,257,235 as of July 2025. Fourteen municipalities sit in the county, from Raleigh, Cary and Apex to Wake Forest, Garner, Holly Springs, Fuquay-Varina, Knightdale, Morrisville, Rolesville, Wendell, Zebulon and Angier, with part of Durham inside the line as well. Many of them run fleets of their own: Apex Fleet Services alone looks after more than 420 vehicles and over 250 pieces of equipment, and the City of Durham manages more than 1,600 vehicles and pieces of equipment.

Raleigh's own fleet is one of the most closely watched in the country. Fleet Management Operations manages more than 4,700 assets, with about 2,500 vehicles on the road, and 28 percent of those are hybrid or electric. The city runs seven fuel stations and has 94 assets on renewable propane, and its Vehicle Fleet Services was named the number one fleet in the nation, large fleet and overall, at the 2023 Government Fleet Expo. Wake County Fleet Operations adds more than 1,100 vehicles and equipment assets for 18 county departments, including the Sheriff's Office, EMS and Fire Services.

The daily routes are long. Solid Waste Services reaches 128,500 households every week, and Raleigh Water manages 5,170 miles of pipe serving Raleigh and six merger towns: Garner, Knightdale, Rolesville, Wake Forest, Wendell and Zebulon. When Hurricane Helene hit western North Carolina, more than 100 city employees went west, including a Raleigh Water convoy hauling 50 tons of pipe.

Raleigh is also the capital, so the state fleet is here too. NC Motor Fleet Management, part of the Department of Administration, runs nearly 8,000 vehicles from Blue Ridge Road. Transit adds more: GoRaleigh's 2024 federal profile lists 294 revenue vehicles, with 86 buses and 178 on-request vehicles in peak service, and its depot houses both electric and compressed natural gas buses. GoRaleigh Access and GoWake Access run nearly 100 paratransit vehicles and schedule more than 2,000 trips a day, GoTriangle's battery-electric fleet is growing to seven buses, and GoCary's new bus maintenance facility is due by the end of 2026.

What We Install in Raleigh

Built for mixed-fuel fleets, transit and long daily routes

We install every major platform with the same on-site process, and we document every vehicle we touch.

GPS Fleet Tracking

Units on refuse trucks, water and sewer trucks, street and brine crews, inspectors' pickups and motor pool cars, placed for a clean signal and wired to a proven ignition source.

Dash & Backup Cameras

Road- and driver-facing cameras on patrol units, refuse trucks, buses and paratransit vans, plus backup and side cameras for trucks working tight residential streets.

Telematics & Integrations

Geotab, Samsara, Motive, Verizon Connect, Lytx, Netradyne and more. We install to the provider's spec, test each unit before we leave, and handle platform swaps vehicle by vehicle.

Raleigh-Specific Considerations

What makes public fleet installs around Raleigh different?

Can you work alongside an in-house fleet shop?

Yes, and in Raleigh that matters. A city shop that has been ranked first in the nation already has its own standards, so we follow them: your mounting locations, your wiring rules, your record format. We act as extra hands during a rollout or a platform switch, so your technicians can keep up with maintenance.

Can you install on hybrid, electric, propane and CNG vehicles?

Yes. Raleigh plans to move its fleet of more than 4,700 vehicles and equipment to electric and clean alternative fuels over the next ten years, and GoRaleigh already runs electric and CNG buses. On these vehicles we work on the 12-volt side only, use the diagnostic port where the platform supports it, and route every wire well clear of high-voltage cables, battery packs and fuel systems.

Do you install for county and state agencies as well as the city?

Yes. Wake County, the towns and the state motor fleet all buy differently, so we match the purchase order, invoicing and sign-off format your procurement office requires, and we can document each install the way your auditors want to see it.

Can you install cameras on paratransit vans without disrupting service?

Yes. With more than 2,000 paratransit trips scheduled a day in Raleigh and Wake County, vans cannot sit idle. We work in short windows, one or two vans at a time, at the start or end of a shift.

Questions From Raleigh Fleet Managers

What do Raleigh public fleet managers ask us?

Do you come to our yard, or do the vehicles have to go somewhere?

We come to you. We work at your motor pool, shop or station, so your vehicles never have to be driven anywhere to be installed.

Can you get brine and plow trucks done before winter weather?

Yes, and fall is the right time to do it. Raleigh starts brine prep about 72 hours before a storm and put close to 200 staff on back-to-back storms in early 2026, so we schedule winter equipment first and finish before the season starts.

Will tracking still show where a unit went if it loses signal?

Yes. The major platforms we install store position data on the device when signal drops and send it once the vehicle reconnects, so the trip history fills back in.

Can you switch us from one platform to another?

Yes. We pull the old units, install the new ones and confirm each vehicle is reporting before we leave, so you are not paying for two systems longer than you need to.

Do you need a minimum number of vehicles?

No. A town department with a handful of trucks gets the same install, testing and records as a city department with hundreds.
