In the fast-paced world of refrigerated trucking, the journey from source to shelf is not just about delivering goods but ensuring they arrive fresh, safe, and on time. The delicate balance between speed, safety, and compliance is crucial for fleets in the Reefer or Refrigerated Trucking Sector. In this blog post, we explore why industry leaders turn to innovative technologies from Drivewyze and Bestpass to streamline their operations, save time, and enhance safety.
The Reefer Challenge
Transporting temperature-sensitive goods involves navigating through stringent regulations, especially from agencies like the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) and the US Department of Transportation (DOT). Routine inspections scrutinize shipments for signs of potential contamination, emphasizing the need for precision and speed in the supply chain process.
Drivewyze and Bestpass: A Dynamic Duo
For fleets seeking seamless integration and comprehensive solutions, Drivewyze and Bestpass stand out. Their technologies are designed to offer a smooth experience for both fleet managers and drivers.
Drivewyze’s Impact on Efficiency
Drivewyze PreClear, a cutting-edge solution, enables commercial vehicles to bypass over 900 weigh station sites across 47 states and provinces in North America. The benefits are evident – reduced fuel consumption and minimized downtime. For trucks transporting perishable items, maintaining a specific pace is crucial to prevent damage to the goods. According to FMCSA reports, Drivewyze can save $8.68 per truck, per stop, in fuel and time.
The safety aspect is further fortified by Drivewyze Safety+, empowering fleets to uphold the highest levels of safety on the road. Custom alerts and notifications keep drivers informed about potential hazards, allowing them to navigate sharp curves, accident-prone areas, congestion, or construction zones safely. This proactive approach minimizes the risk of accidents, product damage, injuries, and fatalities.
Drivewyze Free has just be launched as North America’s only free safety service for the trucking industry, provided by Drivewyze and sponsored in part by agencies, providing drivers with exclusive and high-impact in-cab safety alerts and advisories, alongside insights on fleet performance. It enhances driver safety and operational efficiency, at no cost.
Bestpass: Transforming Toll Management
In collaboration with Bestpass, fleets gain access to the most extensive toll coverage in North America. Bestpass has established relationships with 60+ tolling authorities across the U.S., offering toll payment coverage at 100% of major toll locations.
Despite their costs, toll roads often provide shorter routes for those accessing them which can further help to reduce transport times for fleets with reefer units. Ensuring 100% coverage for toll locations and a seamless payment platform simplifies toll management so that reefer fleets can focus on optimizing important metrics like total cost per mile. Their online toll management portal provides advanced analytics, helping fleets mitigate risks and improve overall operations.
