Whether you need to fuel delivery vans, construction vehicles or farm equipment, Southville’s fleet-fueling services give you options for saving time and money. That’s not just good for your operation, but it helps you serve your customers better. Keeping costs down helps you keep your prices steady, too—something your customers will appreciate as much as quality service.
Not familiar with fleet fueling? Here’s everything you need to how about how fleet-fueling works and how it can benefit your business.
One of the main benefits to fleet fueling is convenience. But that convenience improves efficiency. Fleet fueling means we bring the fuel to you. 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 jobs sites that change periodically. This option means your vehicles stay on the job site, and we fill them on your schedule. We can also set you up with bulk fueling. We’ll set up a mini fueling station on your site, and we make sure you have the fuel supply you need.
Whichever option is right for you, the key is that you’ll save time: When drivers don’t have to spend time filling up trucks at retail gas stations, they’re spending more time on the road, working for you.
With fleet fueling, you’ll save with wholesale pricing and bulk discounts. As a local, independent fuel company, we can’t do much to reverse the high taxes, refining costs, and demand driving up diesel prices, but you will still save money compared to paying retail. You’ll also get better quality than from a discount dealer.
But you’ll save money in other ways too.
In addition to more efficient trips, you’ll see savings on mileage and miles-per-gallon with fleet fueling. When you consider the cost per mile to operate each of your fleet vehicles, the cost to send them just two or three miles out of the way to fuel up really add up! Onsite delivery removes those costs.
You’ll also reduce fraud and error: A drink or a snack added to gas purchases may not seem like much to your drivers, but those added costs can really add up. Drivers can also lose receipts or miscalculate the miles per gallon of their vehicle. Fleet fueling prevents those types or errors and fraud: instead of crumpled gas station receipts, you’ll receive a detailed invoice.
Because you’re ordering fuel and not just filling up, you’ll also know exactly how much you’re going to be paying in advance. It also allows you to more accurately track your fuel usage to reduce waste.
