Best Practices: Mobile Fueling

Mobile refueling is an increasingly popular choice.  Saves significant time & money for virtually all users. 

In the past, small equipment was fueled by those familiar five gallon containers. Large equipment was fueled by "wet hoser" trucks, which pulled up to each piece of equipment individually to fill their tanks. 

Current "Best Practice" eliminates those messy five gallon cans, and most of the wet hoser fuel truck deliveries.  

Five gallon cans: 
  • Small. Obviously, a 500 gallon TransFueler beats a 5 gallon can. By a factor of 100...
  • Inefficient: Multiple leaky little containers to deal with.
  • Expensive: Buying small amounts of fuel at "street" prices.
  • Frequent spills: Who hasn't experienced this?
  • Dangerous: Fuel spillage, skin contamination. Fire & health hazardous.
  • Awkward to handle. And you have that fuel smell on you and in your vehicle all day.
Wet Hoser Fuel Truck:
  • Inconvenient: Must pre-schedule fuel. Equipment sits idle waiting for fuel.
  • Expensive: Every time the truck delivers on-site incurs a trip charge.
  • More Expensive: Still not buying enough fuel to get the best bulk discounts.

TransFueler:
  • Holds plenty of fuel to keep vehicles, equipment, generators or aircraft running.
  • Vastly more efficient. Refuel 24/7, anywhere you need to.
  • Much safer. Very low spill rate. Very low body contact with fuel.
  • Easy to dispense fuel: Simple dispensing system keeps it easy to use.
  • Less Expensive: Equipment keeps working until it needs refueling. 
  • Less Expensive: Equipment operator keeps working until equipment needs refueling.
  • Less Expensive: Buy larger quantities of fuel to get a lower price. 
  • Less Expensive: Reduce trip charges by needing fewer fuel truck deliveries. 
 Looking at this, yes, it does look like an overt sales pitch. Reality is, each point is true. A TransFueler really does increase productivity & convenience, as well as save money. That results in a very real "Best Practice".
