Stop hauling trucks to inspection stations

You have 25 trucks based at your Columbia Corridor yard. Every one needs an annual DOT inspection. The old way: drive each truck to an inspection station, wait, hope it passes, drive it back. If it fails, drive it to a repair shop, fix it, drive it back to the inspection station. For 25 trucks, that is a logistical nightmare that eats two weeks of productivity.

We come to your yard. Set up. Inspect your fleet systematically. Trucks that pass get stickers and documentation. Trucks that fail get repaired on the spot and re-inspected. Two days at your yard replaces two weeks of driving trucks around Portland.

The full FMCSA inspection

Brake systems including measurement and adjustment to spec. Steering components. Suspension. Frame and body condition. Tires and wheels. Exhaust system. All lighting and electrical. Coupling devices for tractors and trailers. Windshield, mirrors, and wipers. Emergency equipment. Fuel system. Every item on the FMCSA annual inspection checklist, checked properly.

We do not cut corners on inspections. Your trucks pass our inspection, they will pass a Level 1 roadside inspection at the Woodburn scales too.

Fix failures on the spot

A brake adjustment out of spec. A marker light burned out. An air leak at a glad hand connection. A cracked mud flap. These are the most common DOT failures, and every one of them can be fixed on-site during the same visit.

We carry the parts and tools to handle common inspection failures. Your truck does not leave your yard for a repair shop. The failure gets fixed, the component gets re-inspected, the truck gets its sticker. Done.

Pre-inspection checks

The smartest thing a fleet can do before DOT inspection season is a pre-inspection sweep. We go through each truck and flag everything that would fail. Fix it all in one maintenance visit. When inspection day comes, every truck passes first time through. Zero surprises, zero delays.

Portland CSA scores

Oregon has active DOT enforcement. The Woodburn scales on I-5 south and the weigh station operations throughout the state pull trucks for inspection regularly. Every roadside violation hits your CSA score. High scores mean more inspections, higher insurance, and potential audit triggers.

A proper annual inspection catches problems before they become roadside violations. When your trucks are inspected right and maintained right, they pass roadside inspections and your CSA score stays clean.

Fleet yard inspections across Portland

Swan Island yards, Columbia Corridor facilities, Central Eastside operations, Northwest Portland warehouses. We bring the inspection to whatever yard your fleet calls home. Large fleets get multi-day sessions so we inspect a manageable number of trucks each day without disrupting your operations.

Trailer inspections

Trailers need annual inspections too. Brakes, lights, tires, coupling devices, frame, floor condition. We inspect tractors and trailers during the same yard visit. No separate trips, no separate vendors.
