If you want to save fuel, you should ask yourself if you are managing your fleet efficiently

Fuel is a critical part of a haulage company’s cost structure. If we add growing awareness among European Union member countries in terms of meeting community standards for reducing C02 emissions, it is understandable that an increasing number of companies are backing efficient fuel management to run their business successfully.

Efficient transport fleet management as a measure to lower consumption involves driving less miles with no load. This is where load exchanges come in as interconnected information systems between companies that help to balance transport flows and minimise the economic and environmental effects implied by trips with no return load.

In this respect, Wtransnet has created a series of solutions focussed on helping to improve this day-to-day management, capable of covering transport contracting needs for any type of company, whether it is a major logistics operator or a freelance hauler.

One of the best tools to meet this need is the Fixed Route Exchange that helps set up contracts between haulage companies looking for regular, long term agreements and companies offering occasional routes, making less frequent journeys more profitable.

However, beyond providing occasional or long term jobs, the load exchange provides haulage companies with a powerful sales tool to broaden their portfolio of co-workers and come across new business opportunities.
