Fleet Vehicle Disposal, Auction and Asset Retirement

Covers the end of a vehicle's working life, where good management recovers real value and poor management wastes it. Addresses timing the exit, preparing vehicles for sale, choosing between trade in, auction and private sale, and the documentation that keeps disposal clean and above board. Built for African fleets that need to release capital and avoid the fraud and value loss common at disposal.

What you will be able to do

  • Decide the right point to retire a vehicle from active fleet service.
  • Prepare vehicles and records to achieve the best disposal value.
  • Compare trade in, auction and private sale disposal channels.
  • Run a transparent disposal process that guards against fraud and loss.
  • Complete deregistration, transfer and settlement documentation correctly.
  • Reconcile disposal proceeds and feed lessons back into replacement planning.
