Keeping a fleet of trucks on the job, or operating buses that need to move people, whether as a charter or on a schedule is a big responsibility. That’s true whether it’s a municipal fleet or a private hauling company. From snowplows clearing the roads before dawn, school buses keeping kids safe and on schedule, or trucks and buses that keep a resort operating smoothly, reliable diesel fuel is what keeps your operation moving.
That’s why choosing the right diesel provider isn’t just about convenience—it’s about keeping your team efficient, safe, and ready to respond. Here are 3 key things to look for when selecting a diesel provider for your fleet:
The price of fuel—diesel, regular and even propane—is one of things you can’t control. Going with a discount dealer may get you a cheap price, but you may lose out when it comes to quality and reliable service.
When you’re operating on a schedule, you don’t want to lose time refueling on the fly. You need a diesel supplier who can set up a delivery schedule that works for you. Whether you need bulk deliveries or on-site fueling, we can set up a tailored fueling plan to keep your fleet on the road, on the job and on schedule.
We’ve got you covered with both on- and off-road diesel as well as ultra-low sulfur heating oil and propane to handle all your equipment, vehicle and heating needs.
Buying diesel in bulk can keep annual costs under control. Stock up when prices are low: diesel will keep in a storage tank for two years or more. Plan ahead by looking over past use patterns to estimate how much fuel you need in advance, then try to buy it in the shoulder seasons when demand is lower.
Save on taxes: If you’re purchasing on-road diesel for equipment that doesn’t operate on public roads, you could be paying extra in taxes. Off-road dyed diesel, which we deliver directly, is exempt from federal excise tax—helping you reduce overall costs.
Maintain your storage equipment. Get routine maintenance for your diesel storage tank every year to keep your fuel clean and to prevent fuel leaks and tank corrosion.
Manage your records carefully. It’s more than just staying on top of expenses – it’s about forecasting future costs and use, and finding ways to become more efficient as a business.
