How Parking Lot Sweeping Companies Can Benefit from Fleet GPS Tracking

22 Jun 2015

Parking lot sweepers may not have the same GPS tracking needs of other businesses. You’re not as likely to get lost on your way to jobs as plumbers and electricians may be. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t plenty of benefits to go around for using fleet GPS tracking to keep your business running like a well-oiled machine.

These are just a few reasons why GPS tracking services are a good idea for your parking lot sweeping fleet.

Pinpoint Exact Truck Locations – Throughout the Day

This isn’t a matter of you trusting your drivers – or even about not trusting them. It’s about having verifiable proof when customers claim that your drivers weren’t onsite at the time they stated or that they left earlier. It’s about transparency in the billing process for the protection of your business reputation, the good name of your drivers, and the satisfaction of your clients.

The other benefit is that you can choose to offer clients the ability to track your drivers as well. This means that they know when drivers are on the way and plan appropriately.

This provides additional protection for your business after hours as well. Some services have had issues with drivers moonlighting in company vehicles and pocketing the profit. The problem for your business is a liability issue as drivers using your company vehicles and equipment, perhaps even your company name can get into accidents, causes injuries, or work in a negligent manner leaving you bearing the responsibility.

Knowing that you can track vehicles at all times can act as a huge deterrent for drivers who may otherwise be tempted to try such things.

Daily Reports Made Easy

The other great thing about GPS fleet tracking services is that you get the benefit of printable daily reports about each truck and driver. With so much record keeping involved in making a parking lot sweeping company successful, this feature alone is worth its weight in gold.

No more tracking down drivers and begging for mileage logs. It only requires a few quick keystrokes on the computer to have records of all trucks’ travels for the day.

The great news for you is that these reports go well beyond simple mileage reports. It includes reports about time spent at each jobs, improper use of company vehicles, excessive speeds or reckless driving habits of drivers, and time and distance traveled.

Keeps Things Clean and Green

Believe it or not, using GPS fleet tracking systems for your parking lot sweeping business is a great way to help reduce carbon emissions and use fewer fossil fuels by decreasing idle time in traffic, planning more efficient routes, and reminding you of when routine maintenance is needed. Without proper routine maintenance, vehicles can produce more emissions, cause accidents, or break down at critical moments in the business day.

The bottom line is that your parking lot sweeping company can really clean up if you use GPS tracking to keep things in order. Try it today and see what a difference it makes for your business.
