The poor fuel consumption of waste fleets make these vehicles one of the largest public-sector sources of trasnport carbon and therefore the biggest consumers of ever more expensive fuel. It is not unusual to find some vehicles, on difficult rounds or driven by heavy footed drivers, that only just exceed 1 mpg - or £5.40/mile. Get that up to 2 mpg and on 10,000 miles/annum you can save £20,000. A lot of money is resting under the foot of each driver!

To ensure your waste fleet is operating at its best you need to understand the detail of fuel use, measuring fuel consumption on each round and linking it to waste type, waste mass, number of households and a number of other key factors. Gfleet can help you identify problem vehicles, problem rounds and even problem drivers.

This fleet can account for up to 30% of a local authority transport carbon emissions, getting fuel consumption under control in this fleet can deliver big savings fast - both carbon and cash.
