“This allows our customers to be instantly aware of all rental activities, as well as letting them know right away if a trailer is returned with damages that will need to be charged,” says CIO T.K. Gardner. “All information, including tire and brake information, is tracked digitally in Mckinney’s proprietary management software.”

The company says the new process will provide a faster checkout and more accurate tracking of all trailer, driver, customer and contract information.
