Tire storage software for Kitchener-Waterloo shops
Tire storage tracking for independent shops in Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge and Guelph.
Treadstock does one job: put a set of four away in about ninety seconds with a label or a chalk mark, find any set in ten seconds by part of a name, a plate, a phone number or the mark on the tire, and see on a Monday morning who is due back and whose tread will not pass another winter. It runs on the phones your techs already carry, so there is nothing to buy and nothing to install on the office computer.
The changeover in Kitchener-Waterloo
The region changes over in the last fortnight of October and the first of November, a week or so ahead of Toronto and a week behind Ottawa. It is far enough inland that the first freeze is a date rather than a maybe.
A dense band of independents serving a commuting population, a lot of them with more stored sets than bays — which is the ratio that decides whether storage is a service or a filing problem.
What that means for a shop here
The parts of this that exist because of how the job actually goes in Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge and Guelph.
Worth knowing
A shop with more sets than bays needs intake to be fast more than it needs anything else. A set goes away in about ninety seconds, including the label, because the alternative is a queue at the counter.
How it handles it
Students and co-op terms move cars in and out of the region twice a year, so a set can sit through a season nobody expected. Abandoned sets are flagged by age rather than found by accident.
And one more thing
Every tech signs in with their own PIN on their own phone, so the record says who put a set where — which is the question that gets asked in a shop with six people on the floor.
What it costs
One price, published, with no per-set or per-user charge on top of it.
Free until spring
Shops that start by February 28, 2027 use it free through March 31, 2027. No card, and nothing is billed unless you opt in. Starting after February 28, 2027? Then a 30-day free trial, no card.
Then $39 a month
Or $390 for the year, plus HST, per location. Unlimited sets and unlimited staff. If you stop, your records stay there to read and to export.
Other Ontario cities
The same product; what differs is when the rush lands and what the shops look like.
