An on-trailer unit 10 for use with a trailer compliance management system, the on-trailer unit comprising a weatherproof housing to be mounted into a trailer 13, at least one status indicator device, a communication device with access to at least one wireless communications pathway and a controller to selectively control each of the status indicator devices to change status based on a signal received from the trailer compliance management system via the wireless communications pathway. The indicator may be a single device used to indicate compliance status. If multiple indicators are used, each are individually actuable. The housing may be low-profile and weatherproof. The trailer compliance management system comprises the on-trailer unit and a remote server. The server operates trailer compliance management software which schedules specific or routine maintenance tasks for the trailer and automatically issues a signal to the on-trailer unit when the maintenance task is due, triggering a change in status of the status indicator device(s) on the unit, indicating that a maintenance task is due for the trailer. The invention seeks to help trailer fleet operators and drivers comply with legal certification and inspection requirements.
