A clearer change of custody
Connect the people, asset, condition, and issued items at one point in time, giving the next driver a starting record and operations staff clear follow-up.
Checks and photos capture bodywork, glass, tires, cabin, warnings, mileage, and fuel or charge before departure.
Count keys and confirm manuals, cards, cables, safety equipment, tools, and accessories.
Record giver, receiver, notes, and separate signatures at an identifiable time and place.
Designed around real handovers
Keep asset fields consistent, then show relevant instructions for issue, delivery, shift change, loan, or return.
Record the assigned driver, permitted use period, expected return, vehicle condition, equipment, keys, and manager handover.
Confirm vehicle identifiers, delivery mileage, accessories, spare key, manuals, demonstrated controls, questions, and recorded sign-off.
Keep handovers short while capturing warnings, damage, cleanliness, missing equipment, current tasks, and the incoming custodian.
Compare the return state with the outgoing record and route new damage, warning lights, low fuel, or missing items for review.
Build the handover workflow
Identify the asset and people, add a guided inspection, then route issues and completed records.
Specify whether the vehicle goes to a driver, buyer, renter, branch, or back to the fleet, and who signs.
Add your equipment and inspection language, then require the essential identifiers, photos, notes, and signatures.
Request details and photos when someone reports damage, warnings, low fuel, dirt, or missing items.
Share the form, provide a submission copy, and notify operations when an answer needs attention.
Choose the right record
An inspection focuses on condition and a receipt on items. A handover form connects both when control of a vehicle changes.
Field guide
Use these six sections as a starting point. Keep answers comparable while leaving space for unexpected observations.
People and event
Capture the releasing and accepting people plus the handover date, time, and location. Add internal routing details only when useful.
Vehicle identity
Use a fleet or stock number for quick work and registration plus VIN to distinguish similar vehicles.
Condition check
Group visible zones, mark each clear, damaged, dirty, or unchecked, and request an explanation when needed.
Evidence
Request defined overview angles and close-ups. Matching views make issue and return records easier to compare.
Items transferred
List expected items with quantity, present, missing, or not applicable answers so omissions appear before departure.
Notes and sign-off
Record unresolved matters and follow-up. Separate signatures identify each acknowledgment while your own process controls policy wording.

It records when a vehicle passes between people or teams. It identifies the asset and parties, documents mileage, fuel or charge, condition, keys and equipment, notes exceptions, and collects sign-off. Fleets use it for issue and return; dealers and rental teams use it for delivery or transfer.
Include both parties, date, location, fleet or stock number, registration, VIN, mileage, fuel or charge, condition checks, warnings, damage notes, photos, keys, documents, equipment, open actions, and signatures. Add the identifiers your team actually searches.
Organize checks by area and require details plus photos whenever someone reports damage. Request an overview and close-up, using consistent angles at issue and return. That creates a more comparable record than a vague note.
Yes. Build separate versions or use a handover-type question with conditional sections. Keep identity, mileage, fuel or charge, condition, issued items, notes, and signatures consistent. Add return questions for new damage, missing items, cleanliness, warnings, and follow-up.
Yes. Add separate signature fields plus printed names and roles. Your acknowledgment text can state that the listed readings, items, observations, and notes reflect the handover record. Review any policy wording through your usual business process.
Yes. Makeform supports unlimited free forms and responses, including generation, editing, publishing, and collection. The paid tier removes the Makeform badge. Add your actual vehicle and equipment lists, then test the flow on a phone.
Put identification first, order checks around the walk-around, use choices for routine observations, and show detailed fields only for issues. Label photo angles clearly, avoid duplicate questions, and test beside a real vehicle.
Collect the area, severity, description, photos, operating status, reviewer, and follow-up date. Route the submission to the responsible team. Use your established inspection, maintenance, and escalation process to decide what happens next.
