Trailer fleet management and administration can form a significant but hidden cost in most fleets. This is often overlooked on Category 01 (unbraked) and 02 (braked upto 3500Kg) trailers as these are not required by law to undergo independent testing. This can be compounded by the fact that the owner/operator is often unaware that, although not legally bound, they have a duty of care to ensure the trailer meets the legal requirements as designed and then to maintain it to that standard. This duty of care passes to the driver once they take the trailer on the highway.

Trailer & Winch Solutions Ltd has extended its broad based trailer manufacturing unit by adding a maintenance division to relieve the client of the burdensome task of trailer fleet management and to meet the growing demand of tailored trailer maintenance and support services.

The key to the TWS solution is to ensure that the arrangements we provide for our customers have the capability of delivering high standards of maintenance that suit the client's specific needs. The most commonly used services are:

■   BI-annual road safety checks
■   Scheduled annual servicing
■   Refurbishment programmes
■   Shot blasting and refinishing
■   Accident and mechanical repair assessments
■   Break down
■   Driver awareness training including pre-use check lists

We will catalogue all your fleet and manage it using our database. Your only cost is the work that is carried out, no management fees are applied. We can also bill per cost unit, providing accurate annual vehicle costs.

In addition to fleet management, we  also provide an ad hoc repair and maintenance service as and when required or when flagged by your own service schedule system, this service is not only limited to trailers but extends to small plant and equipment.

Finally, as primarily a trailer manufacturer and supplier, we are able to provide a vehicle replacement service for all your trailer and fabrication needs and with a network of suppliers, we are confident that we can offer the complete trailer solution.
