Mobile Mechanic Invoice Template

A mobile mechanic invoice documents on-site vehicle repair including travel fees, diagnostic charges, on-site labor, parts with markups, and specialty service charges. Create professional mobile mechanic invoices with NetInvoice's free template for convenient roadside and at-home auto repair.

Why this invoice template matters

Mobile mechanics provide convenience that commands premium pricing over shop work. Detailed invoices separate travel time from diagnostic and repair time, show the convenience premium clearly, and document parts procurement fees. This helps customers understand why mobile service costs more - you're bringing the shop to them. Good invoicing also protects you by documenting vehicle condition on arrival and listing any repairs declined for future reference.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do mobile mechanics charge?
Mobile mechanics charge service call fees ($75-$150), travel ($1-$3/mile or $50-$100 flat fee), diagnostic ($100-$150), and on-site labor ($100-$150/hr). Rates are 20-40% higher than shop work due to convenience and equipment costs.
Should mobile mechanic invoices separate travel from labor?
Yes, itemize service call fee, travel distance/time, diagnostic, and repair labor separately. This transparency shows all cost components and helps customers understand the mobile convenience premium.
How do mobile mechanics charge for parts?
Parts are marked up 30-50% over wholesale to cover procurement time, warranty coverage, and inventory risk. Consider adding a parts procurement fee ($25-$50) to cover sourcing time if parts aren't in stock.
What warranty should mobile mechanics offer?
Offer 6-month/6,000-mile warranty minimum on parts and labor, comparable to shop warranties. Clearly state warranty on invoices and note that it doesn't cover pre-existing conditions or customer-declined repairs.
