Flagler County runs its door-to-door public transportation service from the county complex on East Moody Boulevard in Bunnell, and Flagler Schools lists its district address on the same road. Across the county, school buses carry more than 6,000 students on 64 routes and cover over 7,200 miles a day. The county itself grew to an estimated 140,360 people in 2025, up 21.7% from the 2020 Census. Bunnell is a small town, but it anchors a busy county, and fleets based here cover a lot of ground. RDI Fleet gives those operations a maintenance plan, with technicians coming out from our Brooksville shop on a schedule.
East Moody Boulevard and the fleets that serve Flagler County
The vehicles that keep a county running are a mix: buses and vans that move people on a timetable, pickups and service trucks that support public works and construction, haulers on SR 100 and US 1, and the trucks and trailers that serve farms. Waste Pro holds the county contract for garbage, bulk trash, recycling and yard waste in unincorporated Flagler County. Whatever your operation runs out of Bunnell, the plan starts the same way: a list of units, what each one does and when it can be spared.
Planning around the Flagler County farm year
Farming still matters here. The 2017 Ag Census counted 79,246 acres of farm land in the county, with roughly 5,500 acres of vegetables such as cabbage and potatoes, plus hay and sod, and about 5,645 head of beef cattle. For farm fleets, the calendar drives everything. Trucks that work hard for part of the year and sit for the rest need their maintenance timed to the work, not the odometer.
So a Bunnell plan books a pre-season visit before the busy weeks: batteries load-tested, fuel checked for water, fuel and air filters replaced, belts and hoses inspected, tires and brakes measured, and codes read. Trailers get their brakes, bearings, lights and wiring checked at the same time. After the season, a second visit catches the wear before the truck goes back to sitting. See agriculture for more on farm trucks.
Bunnell yard and farm visits from Brooksville
RDI technicians come to Bunnell from our Brooksville shop, so every visit is scheduled ahead and planned to handle as many units as possible in one trip. A visit covers the PM due on each unit, the inspection, approved repairs that can be done on site and fresh photos for the record. Engine overhauls, transmission rebuilds and other work that needs a lift are scheduled into the Brooksville bays, with enough notice to plan around the loss of that unit.
Buses, stock trailers and pickups on one Bunnell plan
Different classes get different schedules on the same account. Bunnell’s light-duty pickups usually run on mileage or the oil life monitor. Medium-duty trucks that idle or run a PTO get intervals on engine hours. Buses go on the calendar, with brakes, suspension, doors and the electrical system checked on a tighter cycle; our bus service and repair page covers that work. Trailers follow the trucks that pull them.
Annual inspections fit into the same plan. Commercial vehicles with a GVWR of 10,001 pounds or more used in interstate commerce need one every year, the report must be kept for 14 months, and drivers are still responsible for their pre-trip checks.
The fleet warranty and 24/7 roadside for Bunnell accounts
Every visit ends with a digital inspection, photos and notes included, and those reports build a service history for each unit. Repairs under the fleet account carry a 2-year / 24,000-mile warranty, fleet units get priority service, and 24/7 roadside assistance covers a breakdown on SR 100 at midnight just as it covers one at noon.
Those records earn their keep in a growing county. When the work picks up and the fleet has to grow with it, a year of inspection photos and notes shows which units are worth keeping on the road and which are costing more each visit. Buying the next truck becomes a planned decision instead of a reaction to the last breakdown, and the budget conversation starts from evidence.
When a Bunnell truck breaks down between visits, see Bunnell mobile diesel repair. Operators along the I-95 side of the county can read Palm Coast fleet maintenance, and the full program is described on fleet maintenance. A call to (352) 433-3800 gets the plan started for your Bunnell units.
