Truck maintenance management
Truck maintenance management software, feature by feature
CDLBoss keeps every truck and trailer's maintenance in one place: what's due, what's broken, what's in the shop and what it cost. Your office, your mechanics and your drivers each see the part that's theirs.
No sign-up to look around · Trailers and users free · From $690 a year
Who it's for
For carriers and fleet owners running anywhere from a handful of trucks to a few hundred, and for the maintenance managers, shop teams and dispatchers who keep them on the road.
The problems it solves
Due dates live in too many places
A spreadsheet for PMs, a binder for annual inspections, a whiteboard for what's in the shop. Something gets missed when the person who keeps it is out.
Repairs drag on
A driver mentions a problem, nobody writes it down, and it comes back as a breakdown on the road.
Spend is a guess
Invoices sit in email and paper folders, so nobody can say what a unit really costs to keep running.
What CDLBoss does
One record per unit
Truck and trailer profiles with make, VIN, plate, mileage, assigned driver, hooked trailer, notes, documents and full service history.
PM and inspection schedules
Set intervals by days, miles or engine hours. Whichever comes first triggers the reminder.
Work orders from report to close
Drivers report problems with photos. Managers assign them, record estimates and parts, and track the unit to the shop and back.
Approvals for big repairs
Managers approve up to the limit you set. Anything above it goes to the company admin first.
Costs you can trust
Spend by truck, trailer, category and shop, kept apart from estimates. Downtime and repeat repairs reports show where money is leaking.
Drop in the paperwork
Drop an invoice or inspection report and CDLBoss fills in the record. Bulk upload by file name, like "TRK#1045 DOT Inspection".
Bring your fleet over fast
Import the truck, trailer and driver lists you already keep in Excel or CSV. CDLBoss points out rows with problems and suggests fixes before anything is saved.
Driver app on any phonePro plan
Pre- and post-trip inspections, defect photos, alerts and a My truck screen, in the phone's browser with no app store download.

Questions
What's the difference between fleet maintenance software and a spreadsheet?
A spreadsheet stores dates. CDLBoss works them out from the last service, warns you before they come due, turns driver reports into work orders and keeps a dated history of who did what, so the record doesn't depend on one person keeping a file up to date.
Do we need to install anything?
No. CDLBoss runs in the web browser on a computer, tablet or phone. Drivers can add it to their home screen like an app.
Can we import our current records?
Yes. Upload your truck, trailer and driver lists from Excel or CSV. Last service dates set up the PM and annual inspection schedules for you.
How is it priced?
Per company, per year, by the number of trucks (power units). Trailers and users are free. See the pricing section on the homepage for the full breakdown.
