Pro tips that save time and money

  • Bundle products: add DEF and additives to cut extra truck rolls.
  • Right-size windows: pick realistic service windows based on site hours and traffic.
  • Use photos for first-time sites: add quick pictures of fill ports or gate locations, it speeds the first delivery.
  • Leverage FuelEvent: for steady demand, run a light RFP to improve rates and lead times.
  • Automate approvals: set thresholds so routine orders do not wait for manual review.
  • Export once per week: use FuelIntel’s CSV, Excel or PDF exports for accounting and job costing.

Common mistakes and how to avoid them

  • Unclear access rules: add gate and safety notes in the order, it prevents failed attempts.
  • No tank thresholds: without FuelIQ, teams over-order or run low. Set min and target once.
  • Missing dyed vs clear callouts: choose the correct tax treatment per asset and jurisdiction.
  • Ignoring seasonality: enable winterized blends and anti-gel for cold regions before the first freeze.
  • Scattered invoices: keep all billing inside FuelControl for clean reconciliation.

FAQs

How fast can I get a delivery?
Many markets support same-day or next-day windows. Exact timing depends on location, product and load size. Emergency requests flow through FuelRescue under your SLA.

Do I need telemetry for FuelIQ to work?
Telemetry is ideal, but not required. You can start with manual readings, then add sensors later.

Can I schedule mobile fleet fueling and reefer top-offs together?
Yes. Add reefer and DEF to the same round where permitted. Bundling reduces truck rolls and delays.
