How to Green Your Fleet
22 Apr 2020As more consumers begin to shift their focus and buying power toward companies and businesses that share their preferences for greener and more sustainable lifestyles, fleets are left trying to figure out how to make their businesses operate a little bit greener.
While many fleet owners believe it’s impossible to make their businesses greener and still turn a profit, there are actually a few key methods for greening your fleet you can do at the same time. Here are a few prime examples.
End the Idling
Idling costs fleets big. It costs the planet even bigger. According to Minute Man Trucks, eliminating as little as one hour of idling per week can spare the planet from 500 pounds of CO2 per year, for each truck doing this. Imagine what it would mean for larger fleets or when curbing greater amounts of time spent idling. Even better? You can put a nice dent in your fuel expenses for the year when going green this way. Plus, you eliminate the wear and tear on vehicles that occurs while idling. It’s a win for your fleet and the planet!

- Confirm Driver Locations
This serves two purposes. First, if there is a customer dispute, you can verify the precise location of your drivers and vehicles and how long they were in that location.
Additionally, it offers confirmation for you that your drivers are where they are supposed to be and not on the other side of town taking an early lunch break. It helps to keep drivers honest,while also serving to have their backs and defend them when disputes arise.
