TruckCheck: Vehicle Checks

TruckCheck helps drivers complete, store, export and back up daily vehicle walkaround checks.

Built for drivers, owner drivers and small operators, TruckCheck gives you a local-first way to manage vehicle checks, defects, repairs, documents and maintenance reminders from your phone.

Use TruckCheck for cars, vans, HGVs, minibuses, buses and coaches. The app includes vehicle-specific checklists so you can complete a clear walkaround check, review failed items, record defects and keep reliable records.

Key features:

• Complete daily vehicle walkaround checks
• Built-in checklists for car, van, HGV, minibus and bus/coach workflows
• Pass or fail individual check items
• Review failed items before submitting a check
• Mark dangerous defects clearly
• Confirm when a vehicle is unsafe to operate
• Lock completed checks after submission to help protect record accuracy
• Keep completed check records separate from later vehicle edits or app updates

Defects and repairs:

• Report defects against saved vehicles
• Add defect severity, notes and operator reporting details
• Attach photos to defect records

• Include saved documents in backups and vehicle export bundles

Maintenance reminders:

• Set reminder dates for MOT, tax, insurance, service, PMI / safety inspection, calibration and tachograph dates

Exports and backups:

• Export and restore local backups
• Backups can include profile, vehicles, checks, defects, photos, reminders, documents and custom data

Local-first by design:

TruckCheck stores your records on your device. There is currently no cloud sync, fleet manager dashboard or shared vehicle system. This keeps the app simple for individual drivers who want control of their own records.

Useful for:

• HGV and lorry drivers
• Van drivers
• Owner drivers
• Bus and coach drivers
• Minibus drivers
• Small operators
• Drivers who want digital vehicle check records instead of loose paper notes

TruckCheck is designed to support your existing walkaround and defect reporting process. It helps you keep clear records if an operator, manager, customer or enforcement officer asks for evidence of checks, defects, repairs or vehicle documents.

TruckCheck is independent and is not an official DVSA, government or operator system. Always follow official guidance, your operator’s procedures and the rules that apply to your vehicle.
