License Plate Recognition Add-On for Security Trailer Rentals
License plate recognition is an add-on to a mobile security trailer rental in Chicago and Northern Illinois.
License plate recognition is an add-on to a security trailer rental: a camera feature set up to read the license plates of vehicles passing a chosen point, such as an entrance. It adds $500 per trailer per month to the $2,950 monthly trailer rental, which includes 24/7 monitoring. It is not rented on its own, and plate-read results are not promised; they depend on conditions at the site.
When this add-on is used
- A site with one main vehicle entrance or exit.
- A lot or yard where vehicle traffic is what you most want recorded.
- A job site or property where vehicle access matters more than foot traffic.
What is included
The trailer rental includes cameras, a talk-down speaker, recording, solar power, batteries, and cellular data. 24/7 monitoring is included. Monitoring is event-based within the hours you define, and any detected person or vehicle triggers it. Police dispatch is available on request and depends on verification and local procedures. License plate recognition is a +$500 per trailer per month add-on; plate-read results are not promised and depend on conditions.
