Lorry and trailer maintenance records for hauliers

Every unit and trailer, with its inspections, defects and history

Safety inspections, annual tests, tachograph calibration, services and driver defects for the whole fleet in one list. Nothing to fit to the vehicles.

No card needed · Unlimited machines on the free plan

What the wall planner can't do

  • Inspections never stop coming

    Every unit and every trailer has its own interval, and each one is due again a few weeks after the last. They count down in one list and move on when you record them.

  • Defect books stay in the cab

    A defect written on a pad can sit there for days. One reported in FleetBolt is open against the vehicle straight away, with a photo, until it's marked fixed.

  • Finding the history takes an hour

    When someone asks what was done to a vehicle and when, it's in three folders. Here every inspection and repair is on the vehicle's own page.

The dates and checks worth keeping on top of

What usually needs tracking on a haulage fleet, and how FleetBolt handles each. Your operator's licence and maintenance provider set what applies to you.

Safety inspectionsAt the interval on your operator's licence, often every 6 to 8 weeks
Set the interval in weeks on each unit and trailer. Record the inspection, with a photo of the sheet, and the next one is worked out for you.
Annual testYearly, for units and trailers
Tracked as a date on each vehicle. Record the test and it moves on a year.
Daily walk-round checksBefore the vehicle is used
Your own checklist, done on a phone and signed off. Failures become defects against the vehicle.
Tachograph calibrationEvery 2 years
Add it as one of the vehicle's own dates. You get the same warnings as for the built-in dates.
Tail lifts and lorry-mounted cranesLOLER, every 6 or 12 months depending on the equipment and its use
Choose 6 or 12 months on the vehicle. Record the thorough examination and the next date moves on.
Servicing, tax and insuranceBy mileage, and yearly
Services count down from the reading at the last one. Insurance can be one fleet policy that covers every vehicle not set to its own.

FleetBolt keeps the dates and the records. It doesn't carry out or replace a safety inspection, test or thorough examination, which must be done by a competent person, and it isn't legal advice.

Built by people who run lorries

We run lorries, loading shovels, tractors and recycling kit on our own site. Spreadsheets couldn't keep up with what was due and which part fitted what, so we built the tool we couldn't find, and we use it every day.
