I know AutoFsck was mentioned already, but I think it's worth mentioning with regard to the last comment.

AutoFsck doesn't interfere with the start up check (if it's called for some reason, it'll still run), and prompts the user on shutdown (no user confirmation, no check run), which means it doesn't cause problems with things like UPS initiated shutdowns or low battery shutdowns.

You can find it at:
http://wiki.ubuntu.com/AutoFsck

There's also a nice simple script (with zenity GUI) on that page which allows you to easily change the interval.
