Assets Across Every Fleet Type

Not just trucks — every piece of revenue-linked equipment

Asset types depend on your industry.

A container haulage company needs to manage skeletal trailers independently. A crane company needs to track each jib and hook block. A tanker operation manages pump assemblies and flow meters.

Every industry has different "assets." TransportSimple doesn't force you into a rigid template. You define the asset categories, fields, and compliance requirements that match your operation.

Core Capabilities

Everything you need to manage assets independently from vehicles

Asset Calendar

See when every asset is committed to a trip, under maintenance, or available for dispatch — in a single real-time view.

Scheduling

Independent Maintenance

Schedule and track preventive maintenance for each asset separately — not just the vehicle it's attached to.

Maintenance

Multi-Asset Trip Assignment

Attach multiple assets to a single trip. One heavy haulage job can carry a prime mover, low-bed trailer, dolly, and spreader beam — all assigned together.

Dispatch

Document Storage Per Asset

Upload and manage every compliance document directly against the asset — not buried in a vehicle folder where it's hard to find.

Compliance

Driver & Operator Accountability

Every asset assignment is logged against the driver or operator who used it. Look up any asset and see a full job history.

Accountability

Rich Asset Details

Go beyond a name and number. Log category, manufacturer, model, year, tare weight, payload capacity, and custom fields specific to your asset types.

Asset Details

Asset Calendar — Never Double-Book Again

Real-time availability across your entire equipment fleet

Every asset has its own calendar showing when it is committed to a trip, undergoing maintenance, or available for dispatch. Fleet planners see the full week or month in one view.

Live Vehicle-Asset Linkage: At any moment, see which asset is currently linked to which vehicle. If trailer TRL-0042 is hooked to a prime mover on a live job, that linkage is visible across the platform.

Multi-Asset Trip Assignment

Dispatch planning that reflects what's actually going out

A single heavy-haulage movement can require a prime mover, a low-bed trailer, a converter dolly, and a spreader beam — all mobilised together. TransportSimple lets you attach every asset to the same job.

Billing accuracy: When multiple assets are assigned to a trip, your invoice reflects every piece of equipment mobilised — not just the vehicle.

Maintenance Per Asset — Not Per Vehicle

Service history and compliance tracked at equipment level

Every asset in TransportSimple has its own maintenance record — independent of the vehicle it travels with.

  • Schedule preventive maintenance by calendar interval or usage hours
  • Log job cards specifically against a trailer, reefer unit, or crane jib
  • Track service history — what was done, when, by whom
  • Missed or overdue maintenance flagged with alerts
  • Asset-level maintenance appears in the Vehicle/Asset No. column across all records

Documents Per Asset — Always Audit-Ready

Every certificate stored against the right asset, not buried in a vehicle folder

For crane jibs, load test certificates and calibration records are stored against each individual asset. For trailers, fitness certificates and insurance policies are linked directly.

Why It Matters for Your Business

Real operational impact by fleet type
Container Haulage
Prime Movers & Skeletal Trailers

Skeletal trailers are dual-managed with a separate calendar from the truck. Maximise chassis utilisation independently of prime movers.

Tanker Operations
Pump Units & Valve Assemblies

Maintenance logs on pump assemblies and discharge valves — separate from the truck — help meet compliance inspections without scrambling for records.

ODC & Heavy Haulage
Dollies, Bolsters & Spreader Beams

Assigning a dolly, bolster, and extendable trailer all to one trip means invoicing reflects the full equipment mobilised.

Crane & Lifting Companies
Jibs, Hook Blocks & Sling Sets

Load test certificates and calibration records for jibs and hook blocks are stored against each individual asset — making audit readiness a standard outcome.

From invisible cost centres to managed, visible, revenue-linked assets.

Tracked from the moment they're onboarded to the day they're retired.

Own calendar per asset — availability independent of the vehicle
Multiple assets assigned to a single trip — billing reflects all equipment
Maintenance per asset — service history separate from the truck
Load test certs, calibration records, fitness certs per asset — always accessible
Driver accountability — full job history per asset, operator-level records
Live vehicle-asset linkage — always know what's hooked to what
