[UKPRwire, Tue Apr 04 2006] Eco-aggregates, a waste collection and recycling subsidiary of Anderson Construction, have significantly benefited from telematics resulting in huge savings and improved customer satisfaction.
Eco-aggregates has installed spotonBOX™ which is a fleet monitoring solution from BOX telematics. The company can now schedule plan its vehicles that allows routes to be fully optimised resulting in lower fuel costs and better productivity.
Telematics simplifies the management of fleet and drivers. Using GPS technology, telemetry enhances the effectiveness of waste collection and recycling by allowing direct wireless communication between depot managers and drivers.
Steve Croucher, Manager at Eco-Aggregates, said: “The increasing cost of disposal has made it apparent that ‘site waste’ has become a day to day problem for many waste collection and recycling businesses. This put extra financial burden on our business. BOX has helped us to be exceptionally efficient, in the last six months, and we’ve been overwhelmed by the amazing feedback from customers.”
Dave Manning, Account Manager at BOX telematics commented on the positive results: “Managers can now pinpoint driver locations, analyse profitable routes or driver behaviour in real-time.”
Telemetry has helped Eco-Aggregates ensure the public are safe from hazardous material during transportation. Vehicles are now equipped with a wireless sensor that immediately alerts managers when protective sheeting has been removed. The company has had no complaints as a consequence.
