Tipper Hire Without Driver and Vehicle Compliance Records Is a Legal Liability
Every tipper truck hire involves DVSA compliance obligations — daily vehicle defect checks, driver licence verification, operator licence conditions, and tachograph requirements on applicable vehicles. Running these checks on paper and filing them in a folder is how small operators get caught short during a roadside DVSA check or a fatal incident investigation.
Tipper Hire Management With Compliance at Its Core

Store your operator licence conditions, traffic commissioner undertakings, and maintenance frequency per vehicle.
Contractor PO Invoicing
Raise invoices against contractor purchase orders with vehicle registration, driver name, and job reference on every line.
