Fleet managers must always keep an eye out for ways to improve fuel efficiency. Regular maintenance, reducing time spent idling, and watching driver behavior are all great options for doing this. Another option is known as rightsizing your fleet. This technique is not as well known as others but can be a great part of your fuel efficiency strategy.<\/p>\n
This term refers to creating a more efficient fleet by optimizing the size and composition of your vehicles. If your vehicles are older, they will need to be replaced. Your fleet may be too large or too small as well. By fixing these issues, you are conducting rightsizing. The key is to balance your fleet\u2019s needs with vehicles that currently meet them.<\/p>\n
Given the definition of this technique, it may seem simple to accomplish your goals. But, there is more to rightsizing than just getting rid of or upgrading a few vehicles.<\/p>\n
You must start with a strategy before making any decisions about your fleet. You can involve anyone who helps make choices for your fleet, like managers and even drivers. Here are some tips to get you started.<\/p>\n

Also, you can buy vehicles that weigh less, as long as this doesn\u2019t interrupt what your fleet can haul. Finally, you can switch to vehicles with alternate fuels or simply use different fueling options if your current vehicles allow for this.<\/p>\n
When buying new vehicles isn\u2019t an option, there are a few other things you can do.<\/p>\n
