Mobile Collection Service
On-site drug and alcohol collection at your terminal, job site, or remote location. Eliminate driver travel time, ensure 100% completion rates, and handle emergency situations without leaving your facility.
While Diversified Drug Testing offers access to 3,000+ clinic collection locations, some situations require immediate on-site testing. Sending drivers to an offsite clinic creates 2-4 hours of lost productivity per test, missed appointments, and scheduling complications. For post-accident and reasonable suspicion events, travel delays can jeopardize compliance with DOT timelines.
Our mobile collection service brings certified collectors directly to your location—whether that is a terminal, construction site, truck stop, or accident scene. Collectors arrive with all necessary equipment, conduct properly observed collections meeting DOT chain-of-custody requirements, and immediately transport specimens to certified laboratories.
Mobile collection is particularly valuable for orientation groups testing multiple new hires simultaneously, remote operations far from collection sites, emergency situations requiring immediate response, and any circumstance where driver time is at a premium. Consortium members receive discounted mobile collection rates.

Frequently Asked Questions
Standard mobile collections are typically scheduled 24-48 hours in advance. For emergency post-accident or reasonable suspicion testing, collectors can usually arrive within 2-4 hours depending on location and availability.
Mobile collectors need a private area (office, trailer, or enclosed space) with a table and access to a restroom. Collectors bring all testing supplies, forms, and specimen containers.
Mobile collection has a higher per-test fee, but when you factor in 2-4 hours of lost driver productivity per clinic visit, mobile collection often provides better value—especially for testing multiple employees or locations far from collection sites.
Yes. Mobile collectors arrive with calibrated evidential breath testing (EBT) devices and conduct breath alcohol testing per DOT protocols. This is particularly important for post-accident scenarios with 8-hour alcohol testing requirements.
