Fuel Management
Fuel cost is one of the biggest things on a fleet manager's plate. It's often up to the driver to find gas stations on their own and take the time to record their expenditures as they go. All of these variables are introduced at every fuel-up, meaning pricing can fluctuate wildly and fleet managers are left without a way to predict just how much a trip will cost in fuel and time, both on the road and off the route.
Penske Truck Leasing is committed to delivering what you need to manage your fuel costs. We know it's important to look at more than just the price at the pump to optimize every aspect of fuel expense. That's why we have developed an effective fuel management strategy to share with all of our customers. We want you and your drivers to get the most out of every tank.
We follow these seven proven methods for an effective fuel management strategy:
