Frequently Asked Questions
How do I calculate fuel cost per trip?
Miles ÷ vehicle MPG × price per gallon. A 120-mile day in a 22-MPG van at $3.60/gallon costs $19.64 — small per trip, but $430+ monthly at 22 working days.
Should fuel be a surcharge or built into rates?
Build normal fuel into base rates; add an indexed fuel surcharge (tied to EIA diesel/gas averages) that floats with price spikes. That is how national carriers do it and clients accept the model.
How can delivery businesses cut fuel spend?
Route optimization software (10–20% mileage savings pays for itself), smoother driving habits, correct tire pressure, and idle reduction. A 15% mileage cut is a direct 15% fuel cut.
