Saving Money: How Fuel Tanks Can Benefit Your Business

Whether you work in construction, mining, agriculture, pipeline, or another industry, you know the importance of having a reliable fuel source for your equipment. Fuel tanks are large storage containers that are used to store bulk fuel for an extended period of time at your yard or project. While you do have to take time to consider whether they are right for your business, you could save time and money by installing one on-site. Let’s take a closer look at some of the benefits of having an on-site fuel tank.

Advantages of Having an On-Site Fuel Tank

Lower Cost of Fuel

Saving money is one of the biggest benefits of having a fuel tank. When you purchase larger quantities of fuel, you pay lower prices and can negotiate with your fuel supplier. You also have the option to add a fuel monitor to your tank that will help you monitor and control fuel levels and usage, helping you dictate when it’s time to reorder. This will help you plan and budget your fuel expenses.

Convenience and Efficiency

Time is money. Having on-site fuel storage gives your business the opportunity to focus on your operations and eliminates the need for frequent trips to off-site locations for fuel, i.e. the gas station. Additionally, taking control of storing fuel in-house gives you the opportunity to negotiate better pricing, which cannot be done at retail stations. Ultimately, the provided convenience of having fuel on-site saves money by saving time where employees are not waiting at the gas stations on the clock to fuel up.

Preventing Fraud

Having a fuel tank helps you prevent fraud associated with retail stations. Nowadays, one of the most common ways your card is compromised is at gas stations. The fuel management systems we can install on your tank helps you monitor fuel consumption and by driver and unit.

Preparation During Emergencies

Another huge benefit of having a fuel tank is that it ensures you will have the fuel you need during emergency situations. When panic sets in, everyone rushes not only to grocery stores, but gas stations as well. This creates an immediate situation where supplies are diminished quickly, running gas stations out of fuel. If your business requires fuel to operate, a bulk fuel storage tank will help you minimize the chances of you not having the resources you need to continue running business as usual.

Flexibility in Choosing Tank Size

At 3L, you can get anywhere from a 250 gallon to a 12,000 gallon tank. We recommend a tank size based on your needs and usage to ensure that the fuel stays fresh through new cycle of deliveries.
