using Group Policy (run gpedit.msc) you can specify shutdown and/or logoff scripts.
Computer Configuration->Windows Settings->Scripts
and
User Configuration->Windows Settings->Scripts
create a script that runs scandisk and defrag and place it in one of these areas.
hope that helps!

Control Panel, Scheduled Tasks.
You will see that in the scheduling options for a task there is options to do the Task on startup or on logon.
But I feel compelled to urge you not to so frequently defrag and scan your disk. There really is no need to do this on every startup or shutdown.
