Swadlincote is a town of more than 34,000 people with no railway station, which means its shops, estates and services rely on vehicles turning up. For the businesses that run those vehicles, maintenance is a second job nobody applied for. A fleet maintenance contract takes it off your desk and gives it to one team.
One team from the workshop to the roadside
Under a contract we plan servicing to the manufacturer's schedule, PMI safety inspections at the intervals on your operator licence, with brake performance checked every time, and preparation before every annual test. The work is done at our workshop at Melbourne, Monday to Friday from 07:30 to 17:00, or at your premises when that keeps vehicles earning, and faults found on your drivers' walkaround checks can be fixed at your yard by our mobile technicians.
Breakdown and recovery can be included too, through 01332 916028 at any hour. The technician who comes out to a vehicle stuck on the A514 or the A511 belongs to the team that serviced it, knows its history and can tell whether today's fault is a one-off or the third time it has happened. Repeat problems get fixed at the root instead of being patched each time.
Fleets that cross county lines
Swadlincote sits in South Derbyshire, with Leicestershire and Staffordshire as neighbouring counties, and Burton upon Trent is 5 miles away. A fleet kept here can easily work in more than one county in a week. Our cover takes in the East Midlands and South Yorkshire, along the M1, A50, A38, A42 and A52, so a single agreement looks after vehicles across that whole area. Mixed fleets fit too: HGVs, trailers, coaches, minibuses, vans and light commercials, and specialist and emergency-service vehicles, all on one schedule.
Every visit is recorded with what was checked, what was found and what was done about it. Inspections happen on time because they were planned in advance, not remembered at the last minute, and the records are ready whenever DVSA or anyone else asks. That is what keeps your OCRS score healthy and your operator licence safe.
Changing provider shouldn't leave a gap. Give us the dates each vehicle is next due for an inspection and a service, share your recent inspection records if you have them, and we take over the schedule from there. We agree the scope of the contract with you at the start, and fleet customers are set up on account.
Contracts suit operators who would rather run their vehicles than manage their maintenance, whether that is a handful of vans on one estate or a mixed fleet of trucks and trailers. Ring 01332 916028, tell us what you run and where it is kept, and we will put together a plan around it.
