A simple maintenance plan for a rental fleet
Oil changes, tyres, brakes and cleaning: how to plan maintenance so cars stay safe and spend less time in the garage.
Rental cars wear faster
Many different drivers, long summer trips and city traffic: a rental car needs closer follow-up than a private one.
What to plan
- Oil and filters by mileage, as the manufacturer recommends.
- Tyre pressure and wear check at every return.
- Brakes, lights and wipers regularly.
- Air conditioning before summer.
- Cleaning between every rental.
Plan around bookings
Schedule garage visits in quiet periods and block the car in the calendar so it isn't rented by mistake.
Track costs per car
Record each repair and its cost. Over time you'll see which cars cost too much to keep. In Rentiffy, maintenance and expenses are logged on each car, and only the latest service counts for the next due date.
