Hear from Our Customers
You’re not losing $500 to $1,000 a day waiting at a testing facility. Your trucks aren’t sitting idle while you figure out CARB regulations.
We come to your yard, warehouse, or job site anywhere in California. Testing takes 15 to 30 minutes per truck. Your vehicle never leaves your property.
Once you pass, we upload results directly to California’s CARB system. Your DMV hold clears in real time. You’re legal the same day. No waiting for paperwork. No wondering if it went through.
You only pay when your truck passes. No hidden fees. No risk. Just fast compliance that keeps your fleet moving and your revenue flowing.
We serve commercial trucking operations throughout Torrance and the South Bay. We’re CARB certified technicians who specialize exclusively in heavy-duty vehicle compliance for trucks that are model year 2013 or newer with a GVWR over 14,000 pounds.
Torrance sits at the center of Southern California’s logistics network. You’ve got the I-405 and I-110 running through here, aerospace companies, manufacturing plants, and freight operations that can’t afford to sit still.
We built this service because fleet operators and owner-operators told us what they needed. Mobile testing that doesn’t interrupt operations. Technicians who know the regulations cold. Results uploaded immediately so DMV holds clear fast. That’s what we do.
You schedule a time that works for your operation. We show up at your location with state-approved OBD testing equipment.
Our CARB credentialed tester connects to your truck’s onboard diagnostics system. We run the emissions compliance test, which takes 15 to 30 minutes. Your driver can stay with the vehicle if needed. Your truck doesn’t go anywhere.
If your truck passes, we upload the results to California’s CTC-VIS database right there. The system updates immediately. Any DMV registration hold gets cleared in real time. You get your compliance certification on the spot.
If something flags during the test, we’ll tell you exactly what needs attention before you can pass. No surprises. No runaround. Just clear information so you know what’s next.

California requires almost all heavy-duty trucks to undergo CARB emissions testing twice a year. If your truck is model year 2013 or newer with a GVWR over 14,000 pounds, it needs OBD-based compliance testing performed by a CARB credentialed tester.
Starting in 2027, testing frequency increases to four times per year for OBD-equipped vehicles. That’s the regulation. You can’t operate legally in California without staying current.
Torrance-based fleets face the same enforcement as everyone else. CARB uses roadside emissions monitoring devices and automated license plate readers to flag potential high emitters. If your truck gets flagged, you’ll receive a Notice to Submit to Testing. You have to comply or face penalties up to $10,000 per vehicle per day.
Registration holds are real. The DMV blocks registration for non-compliant vehicles, even those with CA DMV-exempt plates. You can’t renew. You can’t legally operate. Your truck sits until you fix it.
Our service covers the testing, reporting, and compliance certification in one visit. You get documentation proving your truck meets California CARB compliant standards. That documentation matters when enforcement shows up or when registration renewal comes around.
Our certified CARB technicians deliver on-site diesel testing anywhere in California starting at $79 per truck that passes. You only pay when your vehicle passes the compliance test.
Compare that to the cost of driving to a facility. Some shops charge $94 for an OBD scan and $180 for opacity and visual inspection testing. Then factor in your driver’s time, fuel, and the revenue you lose while that truck sits idle instead of hauling freight.
We come to you. Testing takes 15 to 30 minutes. Your truck stays on your property. No downtime. No lost revenue. Just fast compliance at a price that makes sense for fleet operators and owner-operators who need to keep moving.
This service applies only to trucks that are model year 2013 or newer and have a GVWR over 14,000 pounds. Those are the vehicles equipped with onboard diagnostics systems that California requires for emissions compliance testing.
If your truck is older than 2013 or weighs less than 14,000 pounds GVWR, this testing doesn’t apply. The regulations specifically target newer heavy-duty diesel trucks because they have the OBD technology needed for accurate emissions monitoring.
California’s CARB regulations are clear about this. Starting January 1, 2025, all compliance deadlines require a passing test performed by a credentialed tester. If your truck meets those criteria, you need this testing twice a year. If it doesn’t, you’re looking at different requirements.
Each CARB emissions test takes 15 to 30 minutes per vehicle. That’s the actual testing time from when we connect to your truck’s OBD system to when we upload the results.
We’re not talking about dropping your truck off and waiting days. We’re talking about a technician showing up at your yard, running the test while your truck stays put, and uploading compliance results to California’s database before we leave.
If you’ve got multiple trucks that need testing, we can run them back to back. Schedule a two-hour window and we can test four to six trucks depending on how quickly each one processes. Your fleet stays at your facility. Your operation keeps running. You get same-day compliance for every truck that passes.
If your truck doesn’t pass, we’ll tell you exactly what flagged during the test. OBD systems report specific fault codes and emissions data. We explain what those codes mean and what needs to get fixed before you can pass.
You’re not charged for a failed test. You only pay when your truck passes. Once you address whatever caused the failure, we can come back and retest.
Most failures come from maintenance issues. A faulty sensor. An emissions system component that’s not working right. Sometimes it’s a software update that didn’t happen. These aren’t always expensive fixes, but they have to get handled before California will clear your truck for operation. The longer you wait, the more you risk enforcement action and penalties that start at $1,000 per day and go up from there.
No. If you’re running freight in California, your heavy-duty truck has to meet CARB compliance requirements regardless of where it’s registered. Out-of-state trucks operating in California face the same regulations as California-registered vehicles.
CARB enforcement doesn’t care about your license plate. They care about emissions. If your truck gets flagged by roadside monitoring devices or pulled for inspection, you need proof of compliance. Without it, you’re looking at fines up to $10,000 per vehicle per day and potential restrictions on operating in California.
Some out-of-state operators think they can skip California testing. That’s an expensive mistake. California moves over a trillion dollars in freight annually. You can’t afford to get blocked from operating here. Get tested, stay compliant, and keep your trucks moving through one of the biggest logistics markets in the country.
Once your truck passes and we upload results to California’s CTC-VIS database, the system updates in real time. DMV holds clear immediately. You’re legal to operate the same day.
This isn’t a “wait 3-5 business days” situation. The upload happens on-site as soon as your truck passes. California’s system processes it instantly. If you had a registration hold blocking your renewal or operation, it’s gone.
That’s why mobile testing matters. You’re not waiting for a facility to mail paperwork or manually enter data days later. You’re not wondering if it went through. We handle the upload right there. You get your compliance certification. Your DMV record updates. You’re back to work without the uncertainty or delay that costs you money every hour your truck sits idle.
