At DCR Ltd, we carry out planned maintenance inspections (PMIs) for HGVs and trailers across Surrey, Sussex and Hampshire, supporting both fleet operators and sole traders.
We undertake inspections carefully and thoroughly, helping you keep your vehicles safe, compliant and in good working order.
Regular PMIs are an essential part of maintaining HGVs and trailers, helping to ensure vehicles remain roadworthy and meet operator compliance requirements.
For operators running under an operator’s licence, safety inspections must be carried out at agreed intervals. These are set based on vehicle usage and operating conditions, but are often scheduled at regular points throughout the year, typically around six inspections annually depending on the operation.
Regular PMIs form an important part of demonstrating compliance with Transport Commissioner requirements, supporting your Operator Compliance Risk Score (OCRS) and helping ensure vehicles remain roadworthy at all times.
We are well equipped to carry out PMI inspections properly and efficiently, using industry-approved, calibrated equipment.
This includes the use of calibrated decelerometers for brake testing, with printed results provided to support your compliance records.
Following each inspection, a full report is provided within 24 hours using DVSA-compliant inspection documentation, helping you maintain accurate and up-to-date maintenance records.
PMI inspections are focused specifically on the safety and condition of the vehicle rather than servicing, with any defects clearly identified so they can be addressed promptly.
Our approach is consistent and methodical, giving you confidence that inspections are being carried out to a high standard.
Our approach is straightforward:
We focus on providing a dependable service that helps you stay on top of maintenance, identify issues early and avoid unnecessary problems further down the line.
We work with companies operating multiple vehicles as well as sole traders who rely on a single HGV.
Whether part of a fleet maintenance schedule or a standalone inspection, we provide the same level of care and attention to every vehicle.
We also support operators with additional inspection requirements, including pre-journey checks and general roadworthiness assessments where needed.
PMI inspections are carried out at your premises wherever possible, helping to minimise disruption and keep things running smoothly.
