I've been installed the cameras (totally 5 pcs - 2 inside the reefer) on my trucks when broker didn't pay for damaged freight as by the contract always the driver responsible for the load.
Once was catched a truck hit the fender and video proof was provided to my insurance.
So now cameras recording 24/7.
There is a little problem - when truck is off 3-4 days battery gets low in full. -
Every system is like a fingerprint - custom unique for that driver's application because everyone's truck is different and each driver wants to be recording something differently than the last.
Remember that "wireless" doesn't mean "powerless." You still have to get 12 volts to that remote camera off the trailer somewhere. Recommend a heated camera if you are putting it in a reefer.

You can use the quote form to do most of the configuring and cost estimate. But eventually we need a conversation on the phone to tweak in the specifics of your specific situation, so call when you like.

If it's not 24/7 continuous, could consider just using a GoPro. They'll survive the temps and will record for a day or so depending on settings. Otherwise, look into regular outdoor cctv, just keep in mind that you'll have to wire them up and an entire system could be much more expensive at the beginning.

Oh. And check state laws for recording. Some states are dual consent, so you'll have to notify them that they're being recorded. Easily fixed by putting a sticker that notifies them on the trailer, somewhere they will definitely see it
