Mobile tyre fitting scheduling
Mobile tyre fitting booking software with travel time between fittings
For solo mobile tyre fitters offering planned jobs, CalMov is mobile tyre fitting booking software that checks whether each fitting and the travel either side of it fit your working day. On Pro, automatic travel pricing can add your travel charge based on distance or journey time.
Common scheduling problems
Every fitting happens at a different location
The distance between customers changes how much of the diary a booking really occupies.
Job durations vary
Different fitting services can need different amounts of appointment time.
Urgent requests can squeeze confirmed work
A new appointment must still leave enough time to reach the booking that follows it.
How CalMov helps
Fitting services with set times
Create the jobs customers can book, each with its own duration and price.
Customer location collection
Capture the fitting address or location as part of the booking process.
Before-and-after travel checks
Allow for the drive to a proposed fitting and keep time to reach the next confirmed job.
Booking notice and working hours
Control when customers can book and how much notice the business requires.
Automatic travel pricing
Apply your distance or journey-time surcharge brackets to the one-way trip from your business base to the fitting address. The travel charge is added to the fitting service price.
The toolkit
Built for mobile tyre fitters: your toolkit
Tools for knowing the job before you load the van: how many tyres, which vehicle and where it's parked. Nothing is switched on until you choose it, and you can switch a tool off again without losing anything.
Time & price questions
Number of tyres and the locking wheel nut, asked up front
"How many tyres?" adds time and price for each answer, so four tyres aren't booked into a one-tyre slot. "Do you have the locking wheel nut key?" can be set to "Can't book online" for "No", so the customer gets in touch before you drive out. On Pro, add wheel size as a further question, and set run-flats or van tyres to "We'll review it" so you confirm first.
Your booking page
Try how many tyres? and do you have the locking wheel nut key? yourself. 4 and no: on Pro and Team that one waits for you to approve it.
Vehicle profiles
Vehicles saved by registration and tyre size
The customer types each vehicle's details once: registration, make and model, tyre size 205/55 R16. Next time they pick the vehicle instead of reading the sidewall again, and you see it on the booking before you load the van.
Your booking page
Which vehicle is this for?
Pick one and the details fill in.
On the booking
The Golf
Tyre size: 205/55 R16
Locking wheel nut key: In the glovebox. Important for this appointment
Site & access
Where the car is parked, known before you set off
Ready-made questions on parking and space to work are answered in a short form after booking, reworded however you like. Answers are saved to the address, so a returning customer only checks them. You see them on the booking, with a small Edit for anything you learn on site.
The form after booking
Kerbside Tyres
Before your visit
Also there when you need it
Forms after booking
A short form for what can wait
"Where will the vehicle be parked?" and anything else you need before the day are asked in a form linked in the confirmation email, due a day before, with up to two reminders.
Job report
A job report, with torque and locking nut ticked
Start job runs a timer against the estimate on every plan. On Pro, tick off the checklist: check tyre size and condition, fit and balance, torque the wheel nuts, return the locking wheel nut key.
Photos
Tread and damage photos (Pro)
Photograph the old tyres and any wheel damage before you start, up to 12 photos a job, kept for 2 years. You can email the customer a report with the ones you choose. Photos and the report are Pro.
Only switch on what you need
Every tool starts switched off. Switch one on in Toolkit when you want it, and switch it off again without losing anything you've saved. Your booking page only changes when you change it.
An example day
A day of booked fittings
- 1. A customer enters his address, chooses Tyre fitting and answers: 2 tyres, and yes, he has the locking wheel nut key. The page shows the time and price.
- 2. He's offered only the times you can reach, allowing for the drive from the fitting before and on to the one after.
- 3. He saves his vehicle: registration, a Ford Focus, tyre size 205/55 R16. Next time he just picks it.
- 4. The form after booking asks where the car will be parked: on the drive, with room on both sides.
- 5. 8:30am on the day: your first fitting. The calendar shows the drive to the Focus, so you know when to leave.
- 6. 9:40am: Start job. On Pro you photograph the old tyres' tread, then tick off fit and balance, torque the wheel nuts and return the locking wheel nut key.
- 7. Finish job. The job report shows how long it took and what was ticked, and the calendar shows the drive to the next fitting.
Before you choose
Is CalMov right for you?
CalMov can help a solo mobile tyre fitter offer scheduled customer visits when the service duration and travel area are known in advance. It does not manage tyre stock, vehicle compatibility, roadside emergencies or technician dispatch, so it fits planned appointments rather than a complete mobile-tyre operating system.
A good fit when
- One fitter handles pre-arranged visits across a defined service area.
- Services have reliable durations and the required tyre is confirmed elsewhere.
- You want distance-based or time-based travel charges applied to planned fitting bookings.
- You want addresses checked against travel around existing appointments.
You may need another system if
- You need tyre inventory, vehicle fitment lookup, ordering or depot management.
- You need emergency roadside dispatch or several vans allocated from a live queue.
Frequently asked questions
Does CalMov manage tyre inventory or vehicle compatibility?
No. CalMov does not provide tyre inventory, registration lookup, vehicle compatibility or parts ordering. It handles booking and travel time for the services you set up.
Is CalMov an emergency dispatch platform?
No. CalMov is for planned appointments. Live breakdown dispatch and fleet control need a specialist system.
Can travel be checked around existing fittings?
Yes. When there is a fitting before or after the proposed time, CalMov checks that you can travel from the earlier one and still reach the later one.
Can I automatically add a travel charge to a scheduled fitting?
Yes. Travel pricing is included on Pro. The customer sees the fitting price and any travel fee before confirming.
How many time and price questions can a fitting have?
On Lite, one per service, or two combined into a table, such as number of tyres and the locking wheel nut key. Pro allows up to 10, so wheel size and tyre type can be asked as well.
Can I confirm run-flats or van tyres before the job is booked?
On Pro, yes. Set that answer to "We'll review it": the customer sends a request, the time is held, and you confirm, adjust the time or price, ask a question or decline within the reply time you set. On Lite, set it to "Can't book online" and the customer is told to get in touch.
Are photos and the job checklist on the free plan?
No, they're Pro, along with the report emailed to the customer. Saved vehicles, time and price questions, the form after booking, site and access questions, and the job timer and notes are on every plan.
