1. Increased Efficiency
The on-site storage tank for your bulk supply makes refueling your fleet fast and efficient. You can confidently plan for and keep to a daily production schedule without getting off track. When you use retail fuel, you must dedicate company time and expenses toward frequent refueling. Whether you send vehicles to get fuel before delivery or stop at various points along the route, the congested traffic near retail fuel suppliers can significantly slow your operations.
Since you can fuel vehicles straight from the storage tank, you can dispatch your fleet to delivery destinations on the fastest, most efficient routes. Your workers can focus on the job rather than the fuel gauge, allowing deliveries to reach more destinations in a given day or week. The on-site storage tank ensures a quick refueling process, so your facility runs according to schedule whether you operate daily, nightly or 24/7.
2. Higher Fuel Quality
If your company uses the fuel as it gets delivered, you can benefit from higher-quality fuel in your vehicles or machines. Bulk fuel supplies are usually higher quality than retail fuel since you can maintain a reasonable limit based on the amount of fuel you use and its storage life. When you get retail fuel, it is challenging to know the fuel’s quality. Remotely monitor the bulk fuel supply inside the on-site storage tank to provide helpful insights into how you use fuel. Regulate what goes into your company fleet with an on-site supply of fresh fuel.
You don’t want to store fuel for too long, as poor fuel quality leads to more engine deposits and more problems for your company. Vehicles and factory equipment that consistently use retail fuel may have higher failure risk and maintenance costs. Lower fuel quality leads to more emissions, less fuel economy and decreased performance. With bulk fuel delivery, it’s easy to determine how much fuel you can reasonably store to avoid going past the storage life.
3. Reliability and Accessibility
Bulk fuel delivery companies provide the convenience of anytime access to a reliable fuel supply. When it’s time to refuel, connect the machine or vehicle to your on-site storage tank and fill up. There is no variation in the fuel’s cost and better quality control.
When you use retail fuel for your fleet, the price can fluctuate based on variables like the location, day and supplier. This variation makes it challenging to set an accurate budget. Bulk fuel takes the guesswork out of budgeting your most essential expense, streamlining the price and payment frequency across all your vehicles or machines.
Gain control over your fuel costs with bulk delivery. Access to yearly budgets makes your accounts more manageable since you can determine, predict and calculate future costs with more reliability. Your bulk fuel delivery service will handle on-site tank refills approximately once each month or as often as you need them. That way, you can rely on accurate and reliable billing for each payment cycle.
4. Decreased Downtime
Instant access to bulk fuel can decrease your company’s downtime. Connect your fleet to the storage tank and refuel vehicles on-site without any delays or hold-ups. Refueling factory equipment becomes quick and efficient, so production can remain consistent with your schedule.
Refueling vehicles at a service station is inconvenient and time-consuming. Your workers could be spending that time on profit-producing work instead, allowing your business to reach more delivery destinations or achieve a higher production rate. Switch to a bulk fuel supply and ditch the unnecessary drives to retail fuel stations.
5. Improved Productivity
Just as instant fuel access leads to decreased downtime, a reliable delivery schedule can increase your company’s productivity. You can fuel your facility and fleet on-site at any time. Since you’ll no longer need to fuel up during delivery or mid-production, your facility can maintain productivity without any timeouts. Dispatch vehicles directly to their delivery destination on the quickest routes possible.
