Fleet Preventive Maintenance Programs in Albany, NY
Fogg’s runs fleet preventive-maintenance programs for Albany fleets — agencies, hospital systems, Port of Albany operators, downtown delivery — 30 minutes west via I-90 and I-890 to 27 bays in Scotia. Per-vehicle intervals, staged batches, NYS and DOT inspections in volume, purchase-order and consolidated monthly billing. Quoted per account.
Capital Region price range

PM visits are priced per vehicle class from the same published ranges as our customer-pay services — oil and filter $49–$69 for most gas vehicles, diesel quoted by engine, brakes $189–$429 per axle, NYS inspection at the state-regulated $21 — with volume pricing set per account. Call the fleet desk at (518) 348-7764 for a rate sheet.
A-level PM visits same-day, typically under two hours per unit; multi-vehicle drops staged across the day.
Albany fleets run urban duty cycles — hundreds of short, idling stops a day between Pearl St and the uptown campuses, hospital courier runs between Albany Med and St. Peter’s, Port of Albany trucks on the I-787 industrial loop — and urban miles age a vehicle twice as fast as the odometer suggests.
Brakes, batteries, suspension and emissions systems fail early; a mileage-only schedule misses all of it. Our Albany programs set intervals per unit by how it is actually used, and the 30-minute trip west becomes a weekly or fortnightly batch rather than a scramble.
A coordinator stages four, six or a dozen units on a morning; 27 bays turn them the same day for most preventive, brake and inspection work.
Every visit logs fluids, pad thickness, tire depth, battery test, codes and inspection expiry to that vehicle and feeds one consolidated monthly invoice with cost-per-unit — or your purchase order, contract or FMC. NYS inspections and DOT annual inspections are batched by date.
A down unit jumps the queue. The United States Postal Service runs on this program with us; two vehicles opens an account, and pricing is quoted once we have seen the fleet.

Questions
How does an Albany fleet get a dozen vehicles to Scotia for maintenance without losing a day of operations?
In batches, staged around your schedule. Most Albany accounts send two to four units per visit, early morning via I-90 and I-890, and have them back by afternoon — the fleet never drops below strength.
Larger one-day batches work too when you can spare them; 27 bays mean a dozen units in a morning is routine, not a special event.
How many vehicles do we need to open a fleet account?
Two. If keeping vehicles on the road affects your revenue, you qualify — a contractor with two vans is a fleet account here, with the same per-unit records, batching, and monthly invoice as an account with 200 units.
What does a fleet PM visit include and what does it cost?
An A visit is oil and filter to spec plus a measured inspection — brake thickness, tread depth, battery test, fluids, lights, belts, hoses — with photos logged to the unit.
For most gas vans and pickups the oil service is $49–$69, with volume pricing set per account; the $21 NYS inspection is folded into the annual visit.
How do you keep track of each vehicle’s service intervals?
Every unit gets a digital record keyed to its VIN and your unit number. We schedule by mileage from your telematics odometer reports or driver mileage, send due notices by unit, and track NYS inspection expirations on a calendar we share with you.
The history exports per vehicle for resale, warranty, or an audit.
Can you bill our fleet management company instead of us?
Yes — and electronically.
Fogg’s is on AutoIntegrate, the authorization platform the large fleet-management companies use, so for vehicles managed by Enterprise Fleet Management, Element and other FMCs we submit the estimate through AutoIntegrate, the FMC approves it, and the FMC pays us directly; several of our accounts already run this way.
For other managed or national-account vehicles we submit estimates and invoices through the FMC’s purchase-order process and bill them directly, with VIN, unit number, and odometer on every line. Vehicles you own outright go on one consolidated monthly invoice with net-30 terms for approved accounts.
