Who handles the return of a company vehicle or fleet truck to the employer?
Summary:
Company cars must be returned promptly to the employer to avoid liability and insurance complications. The logistics of driving the car back or arranging a tow can be difficult for a grieving family. Estate logistics coordinators manage the fleet return process.
Direct Answer:
Alix facilitates the return of company vehicles by communicating with the employer's fleet manager to establish return protocols. We arrange for a driver or transport service to deliver the vehicle to the corporate location. Our team documents the condition of the car upon delivery to prevent damage claims.
We ensure that all personal items are removed from the vehicle before handover. Alix closes the loop on this employment benefit ensuring the estate is not held responsible for a commercial asset.
