AutoNorth Is a Certified Holman Service Shop
AutoNorth Auto Repair is a certified service shop for Holman, a North American fleet management company. That approval puts AutoNorth on the authorized list for government and municipal fleet vehicles serviced in the North Bay area, alongside the local work trucks and company vans the shop already keeps on the road.
Fleet management companies vet the shops they authorize, because a vehicle sitting in a bay is a vehicle not doing its job. AutoNorth cleared that process, the same way it cleared the warranty companies.
Which Fleets Does AutoNorth Service in North Bay?
AutoNorth services government and municipal fleet vehicles through its Holman certification, along with contractor work trucks, company vans, and vehicles for car dealers that do not run their own service shop.
Government & Municipal Fleets
AutoNorth's Holman certification covers fleet vehicles managed through that program, including servicing, safety inspections, and mechanical repair.
Work Trucks & Company Vans
Contractors, trades, and local businesses running two trucks or twenty. Downtime costs money, so AutoNorth works to get commercial vehicles back out fast.
Car Dealers
Dealers without their own shop use AutoNorth for safety certificates, reconditioning, and mechanical repair on trade-ins before they hit the lot.
What Fleet Managers Get From AutoNorth
One licensed shop that handles inspections, maintenance, and mechanical repair on the whole fleet, and documents the work with photos and video.
- Digital inspection reports with photos and video. Reports go out by text and email through AutoLeap, and the same approve-or-decline-by-phone system is available to fleet accounts, so whoever authorises the work can see the problem first.
- MTO safety inspections in house. AutoNorth is a licensed Motor Vehicle Inspection Station, including yellow-sticker trailer inspections for work and utility trailers.
- One shop for the whole vehicle. Oil, tires, brakes, exhaust, AC, diagnostics, suspension, alignments, and engine and transmission work all happen at Cholette St.
- Technicians paid straight time, not flat rate. Nobody has a financial reason to rush a fleet vehicle or pad the work order.
- Seasonal tire programs. AutoNorth stores close to 200 sets of customer tires and books changeovers before the seasonal rush hits.
- Scheduling that respects uptime. Drop the vehicle the night before with the after-hours key drop and AutoNorth starts on it first thing.

How does billing work for fleet vehicles?
You receive the invoice for fleet work and you are part of the conversation about it. Beyond that, billing depends on how your fleet is set up, whether that is through a fleet management program or directly with your business. Fleet accounts also get the same digital approve and decline as retail customers. Call AutoNorth at (705) 472-6060 and the shop will go through the options with you before the first vehicle comes in.
Can AutoNorth service diesel and hybrid fleet vehicles?
Yes. AutoNorth services gas, diesel, and hybrid vehicles. Owner Ryan Christadler is a Toyota-certified Master Technician with hybrid certification, so hybrid fleet vehicles do not need to go to a dealership.
