Trailer roster with plate alerts.
Trailers are the easy-to-forget side of the equipment compliance question. The trailer doesn't roll into your office every morning the way a tractor does. Keelway tracks every trailer's plate expiration and surfaces approaching renewals on the dashboard compliance widget alongside the trucks.

Roster
Type, make/model, VIN, plate
Trailer type (dry van, reefer, flatbed, step-deck, RGN, tanker), make and model, VIN, plate state and number. Used by the dispatch screen to match trailer type to load requirements.
Plate
Expiration alerts on the dashboard
Each plate carries an expiration date. Compliance widget on the operational dashboard surfaces every trailer plate within 90 days of expiry across the standard tiers.
Status
Active or out-of-service
Out-of-service flag removes the trailer from dispatch assignment. Useful for trailers in the shop or pulled for inspection. Reactivating restores availability.

LoadStop migration is a paste. Other sources via documented CSV format.
Frequently asked questions
What's tracked per trailer?+
Unit number, trailer type (dry van, reefer, flatbed, step-deck, RGN, tanker), make and model, VIN, plate state and number, plate expiration, active or out-of-service status, current assignment (if hooked to a tractor), maintenance record.
How do plate expiration alerts work?+
Each trailer plate carries an expiration date. The compliance widget on the dashboard surfaces every trailer approaching expiration across the standard tiers (Expired, ≤30d, 31-60d, 61-90d). Same renewal cadence as truck registration so they often align.
Can I mark a trailer out of service?+
Yes. Out-of-service flag removes the trailer from dispatch assignment options. Useful for trailers in the shop, awaiting repair, or pulled for inspection. Reactivating restores availability.
LoadStop trailer import?+
Yes. LoadStop's trailer XLSX export maps to Keelway's trailer record fields. CSV import works for other source systems.
