What Is Included
How It Works
Schedule Your Inspection
Call us at (276) 644-9799 or stop by to schedule your DOT inspection. We can usually fit you in the same day or next day. If you are getting ready for an annual inspection, call ahead so we can set aside enough time.
We Inspect Everything
Our technician goes through every item on the DOT inspection checklist. We check your brakes, tires, lights, steering, suspension, coupling devices, and more. We do not rush through it. Thorough is the only way we do inspections.
We Fix What Needs Fixing
If we find something that does not pass, we repair it on the spot whenever possible. That way you do not have to come back for a separate repair visit. We want you to leave with a clean inspection report.
You Get Your Sticker
Once your truck passes, we issue your DOT inspection sticker and documentation. You are legal and ready to roll. We keep records so you know when your next inspection is due.
