Planned maintenance
PM programs that stop breakdowns before they start
Fluid checks, chain adjustment, brake inspection, battery watering — scheduled by hours, not guesswork. Fleets on PM average 40% fewer emergency calls.
The cheapest repair is the one that never happens
If you run 3+ trucks, a PM plan pays for itself in the first avoided breakdown. A stranded forklift at 2 PM in July doesn't just cost the repair — it costs overtime, late shipments, and the guy who now drives across town to cover.
We build the schedule around your utilization: daily drivers get more frequent service, seasonal trucks get timed before their busy window. Every visit is logged digitally — service records you can hand to OSHA or a buyer.
- Hour-based scheduling with automatic visit reminders
- Digital service history per serial number

Maintenance FAQ
How many trucks before a PM plan makes sense?
Three or more. Below that, quarterly PM on demand usually suffices — above it, unplugged downtime math gets ugly fast.
Do you work around production schedules?
Yes — visits are scheduled to your shift gaps, including early mornings. Emergency calls jump the queue regardless of tier.
Are service records digital?
Yes — every visit is logged per serial number with parts used, tech notes, and hours. Export anytime for audits or resale value.
