As a commercial laundry and linen services company, you have a huge responsibility keeping the biggest businesses in your city stocked with clean and spotless linens, sheets, towels, tablecloths, napkins, and uniforms. You’re responsible for helping them put their best faces forward to their customers. That means that getting the items delivered in time for major events, lunch rushes, and shift changes is extremely important for your business and for theirs.
These are just a few ways GPS fleet tracking can help your commercial laundry and linen service do just that.
Avoid Unnecessary Traffic Delays Saving Time and Money Every Day
GPS tracking offers many benefits to eco-friendly companies. Some of the benefits help in bigger ways than you may realize at first. These are just a few benefits your eco-friendly organization can enjoy by adopting GPS tracking in your fleet vehicles.
Organizational Accountability
Beyond planning more fuel-efficient routes for drivers, GPS fleet tracking holds drivers accountable to sticking to those routes by notifying you instantly if they deviate. This helps you reduce your fuel consumption, as an organization, by traveling fewer miles in a day. Reduced fuel consumption means you’re spending less money on gas, emitting fewer emissions, and limiting the carbon footprint involved in getting your goods to market.
10 Ways to Make Your Fleet Safer
3 Sep 2019Managing a fleet is challenging work, particularly when you have vehicles spread throughout your city and state. There’s moving vehicles, heavy equipment and dangerous chemicals. These are only a few of the possibly dangerous things drivers and fleet staff encounter each day at work. Because of threats like these, it’s important you uphold safety policies for creating a safe and healthy workplace. Below are 10 ways to make your fleet safer.
- Make Safety a Priority
Fleet operations must make safety a priority to keep it on the minds of staff and drivers. Your fleet staff should know their well-being and safety is important to your company. Safety policies and information should be accessible to everyone. Keep First Aid kits nearby and safety data sheets for chemicals visible.
Drivers should take precautions too. They need to follow all traffic laws as well as rules you enforce such as:
- Sudden braking
- Aggressive driving
- Quick acceleration
You can use telematics to track the behaviors of your drivers and ensure they’re following safety rules.
