Frugal Fuel: How to Cut Petrol Costs

Whatever the size of a business, there's always space to streamline costs

, particularly in terms of fuel and energy saving. Similarly to turning off machines at night, using energy efficient bulbs and so on, there are several simple tips to help small and large businesses alike benefit from reduced costs.

Fuel Cards

The clear benefits of fleet cards and individual fuel cards are reduced petrol costs and an enhanced ability to monitor fuel consumption.

Fuel cards can be vehicle or driver specific, tailored to particular needs (e.g. exclusive use at a local petrol station, European travel etc) and adapted to allow employees to pay for other motoring outgoings like toll roads.

Fuel card suppliers tend to provide clients with a full overview of fuel consumption, mileage and vehicle performance, making the difficult job of fuel consumption supervision a little easier on the part of a business owner. Shopping around for suitably adaptable fleet cards or fuel cards is easy and could save a business up to 10p per litre.

Maintain Vehicles

Simple issues like incorrect tyre pressure can make a vehicle sluggish. Keeping on top of correct vehicle maintenance is an effective way of encouraging maximum performance. Putting off advisable repairs could end up carrying its own heavy price tag in terms of future damage and excessive petrol consumption.

Good Habits

Setting employee protocols in place concerning issues like unnecessary use of vehicles (e.g. for personal use), route planning and fleet cards is a great way to cover every base.

Everybody gets lost sometimes, but setting strict guidelines in place concerning route planning could help shave miles (and pounds!) off a business fuel bill.

In the long run, it's the little things that make a big difference. Loosely translated those runs to the supermarket and back on company fuel add up!
