Every minute a driver spends at a fuel station is a minute they’re not working. For a fleet of 20 trucks making five-minute fuel stops every other day, that’s over 40 driver-hours lost to the pump every month. On-site fleet fueling fixes this — and that’s just the beginning of the savings.
What Is On-Site Fleet Fueling?
On-site fleet fueling means a certified fuel tanker comes directly to your yard, depot, or job site and fills every vehicle while it’s parked. Deliveries typically happen overnight or during shift breaks, so drivers arrive to a full tank every morning without a single detour.
Assurance Direct Oil operates GPS-tracked tankers that arrive on whatever schedule your operation requires — nightly, three times a week, or on-demand. Every delivery is metered by vehicle and documented digitally.
The Real Cost of Retail Fueling
Most fleet operators underestimate what retail pump fueling actually costs. Beyond the per-gallon premium, consider:
- Driver time: 5–10 minutes per stop, per vehicle, every day
- Fuel card fraud: Industry studies estimate 3–5% of fuel card spend is fraudulent
- Unauthorized fill-ups: Personal vehicles, over-fueling, and buddy-fueling are common
- Mileage detours: Drivers routed to stations add miles and wear to vehicles
- Inconsistent recordkeeping: Paper receipts get lost; fuel card data requires reconciliation
When you add these up, on-site fueling typically delivers 8–15% total fuel cost reduction for mid-size fleets.
Documentation and Reporting
Every on-site delivery from Assurance Direct Oil includes:
- Metered per-vehicle delivery quantities
- Timestamped digital delivery receipts
- Monthly consumption reports by vehicle or unit
- Automatic invoice generation for your accounting team
This data is invaluable for fuel budgeting, maintenance scheduling, and identifying vehicles with abnormal consumption — often a sign of mechanical problems before they become expensive failures.
