One minute you\u2019re living the dream, and the next fuel rises to $5 a gallon. Many carriers are struggling to know how to save on fuel.<\/p>\n

As fuel prices continue to break records in their climb, owner-operators are left with staggering expenses, even reaching $2,000-$2,500 a week.<\/p>\n

With such unprecedented overhead wreaking havoc for small businesses, one critical question remains: How long will this last?<\/em><\/p>\n

To answer this question, consider why<\/em><\/a> fuel prices are so high in the first place:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

1. The pandemic changed everything, including the price of oil.<\/h2>\n

As commuters slept-in and industrial services slowed, the demand for oil dropped, and producers slowed production.<\/p>\n

Now as travel resumes and demand for oil resurges, restoring dried wells is a complicated and difficult task, one that may take a long while to complete.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. The Russian-Ukrainian war cut the global oil supply.<\/h2>\n

With over 10% of the world\u2019s oil supply being sourced from Russia, a global shortage ensued following the war.<\/p>\n

Because there is no definitive way to gauge when the war may conclude, there is no promise of this shortage finding a resolution.<\/p>\n

Long story short: It\u2019s probably going to be awhile.<\/p>\n

To adapt to such brutal conditions, you don\u2019t need to be panicking: You just need to be prepared.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Here are the very best ways<\/a> you can save on fuel:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

1. Right now, you need a fuel card.<\/h4>\n

Fuel cards enable you save several cents a gallon at most major pumps. Aside from immediate savings, most cards also offer other benefits, like tire discounts.<\/p>\n

This is a no-brainer. If you haven\u2019t already, snag a fuel card.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2. Plan your route.<\/h4>\n

Easiest way to trim fuel expenses?<\/p>\n

Drive less!<\/p>\n

By pre-planning your routes for maximum efficiency, you can trim dollars with every mile saved.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

<\/h4>\n

3. Keep your truck aerodynamic.<\/h4>\n

Did you know that by even installing mud flaps on your rig, you can improve fuel efficiency by 3.5%? Or, for every 1 PSI that your tire is under-inflated, you can lose .3% fuel efficiency?<\/p>\n

Small changes can lead to double-digit dividends at fill-up time.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fuel is the toughest it\u2019s ever been, but you have the tools you need to roll with the punches.<\/p>\n

Apply these tips to rise above the market and help your business thrive.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The\u00a0<\/em>England Carrier Services (ECS) division<\/em><\/a>\u00a0offers various services for carriers ranging from maintenance to support.
