Transparent and flexible

TIP’s maintenance solutions are designed to give you maximum flexibility. Our standard maintenance rates include all-inclusive fixed rates for most standard maintenance operations related to MOT inspections, equipment checks, EBS/ABS diagnostic, the servicing of brakes, axles, suspensions, signage, electrical components, reefer engines, tail-lifts, or regular body repair work.

If desired, billing for maintenance contracts can be consolidated in single monthly invoices with fully itemised work records to streamline administrative workload and costs. Maintenance rates can also be contractually agreed. For instance, they can be contractually harmonised across multiple locations or agreed on a volume/spend basis.
