If you operate a fleet of trucks or construction equipment, you need to keep them fueled and ready to go. The price of diesel fuel isn’t just a line item in your budget. Sending drivers to gas stations for fill-ups is time off the job, never mind paying retail for fuel when you go to a gas station. Depending on the type of vehicles you’re operating and the size of your fleet, you could see some real benefits from bulk diesel delivery and on-site fleet fueling that can make your business run better—and improve your bottom line.
Here’s how fleet fueling works—and all the ways it can benefit your business.
Put simply, bulk fueling puts a storage tank and fueling station on your site, and we make sure you have the fuel supply you need when you need it—whether you need on-road diesel, off-road diesel, or both. It’s perfect for fleets that need to fuel up and head out—making deliveries, moving merchandise, covering a specific route, and then returning to base.
It’s also a smart solution for operations with off-road fleets that stay at your location, such as agricultural operations.
Think of it as a shot in the arm for across-the-board savings: Save time when you eliminate detours and time spent fueling up, and save money on fuel used to go gas up, plus see better fuel pricing and fewer impacts from market fluctuations. Dispatch and route planning are also more efficient: there are no detours or extra mileage to get fuel. (And, no lost receipts, or receipts with a few snacks or a coffee added on.)
You’ll also reduce the carbon footprint of your fleet by cutting out fueling trips and decreasing traffic congestion.
You also get better quality fuel than sending your drivers to a discount fuel station. That can help reduce maintenance problems and improve performance.
We will work with you to make sure all equipment is installed safely and meets all federal and local fuel storage guidelines. We will also monitor your fuel levels to schedule deliveries and ensure that the proper equipment and safety protocols are in place for dispensing fuel.
Having an on-site fueling station may not make sense for every business. For smaller fleets, on-site fueling can offer many of the same benefits.
On-site fueling means we bring a fueling truck to you and fill your vehicles at your location. That’s great for construction companies, where you might be operating at multiple job sites that change periodically. This option means your vehicles stay on the job site, and we fill them on your schedule.
