Waste & material traceability solution for sustainable facilities
Every day, waste management companies lose thousands of dollars to hidden fleet inefficiencies. While obvious costs like fuel and maintenance are easy to spot, the real budget killers often go unnoticed until they’ve caused significant damage.
Recent industry data shows that addressing these hidden challenges with proper fleet management can reduce operational costs by up to 30% within the first year. Here are the four most costly fleet challenges and how smart fleet management solves them.
Drivers taking unauthorized detours or extending routes costs companies an average of $2,400 per vehicle annually. Without proper tracking, these “ghost miles” remain invisible to fleet managers.
Fleet Management Solution: Real-time GPS tracking through Evreka’s Fleet Management platform provides complete route visibility with automatic alerts for deviations. Fleet managers can monitor all vehicles on a single dashboard, reducing unauthorized mileage by 85%.
Unexpected breakdowns don’t just cost repair fees—they disrupt entire collection schedules. Companies report losing $1,800 per breakdown in missed collections and emergency repairs. Poor vehicle utilization also means paying for idle assets.
Fleet Management Solution: Evreka’s fleet management system tracks vehicle performance, odometer readings, and maintenance schedules in real-time. Fleet managers receive predictive maintenance alerts and can optimize vehicle allocation, preventing 60% of unexpected failures while improving utilization rates.
Paper-based fleet records create chaos: lost maintenance logs, billing delays, and inability to track vehicle history. Administrative overhead from manual fleet processes increases costs by 25%.
Fleet Management Solution: Digital fleet documentation through Evreka’s platform eliminates paperwork with automated data capture and integrated reporting. Fleet managers can access complete vehicle histories, maintenance records, and performance data instantly, reducing administrative errors by 95%.
Poor coordination between vehicles and static route planning wastes fuel and extends collection times. Fleet managers operating without real-time visibility can’t make informed decisions about vehicle deployment and route adjustments.
Fleet Management Solution: Evreka’s fleet management platform provides real-time fleet coordination with dynamic route adjustments. Fleet managers can reassign vehicles, optimize routes on-the-fly, and coordinate entire fleets from a central dashboard, reducing fuel consumption by 25% and increasing daily capacity by 40%.
