Assumptions
• Fleet size: 10 vans
• Average driver wage (with benefits): $25/hour
• Time to refuel (drive + wait + pump + receipt): 20 minutes/day per van
• Workdays per month: 22 days
• Average fuel needed per van: 15 gallons/day
• Retail fuel price: $3.50/gal*
• GoGassy bulk/fleet rate: $3.40/gal* (10¢ savings per gallon)
⸻
1. Labor Savings
• 20 minutes × 10 vans = 200 minutes/day lost fueling
• 200 minutes ÷ 60 = 3.33 hours/day
• 3.33 hours × $25/hr = $83/day wasted labor
• $83/day × 22 days = $1,826/month in labor savings
⸻
2. Fuel Price Savings
• 10 vans × 15 gallons = 150 gallons/day
• 150 gallons × 22 days = 3,300 gallons/month
• Savings per gallon: $0.10
• 3,300 × $0.10 = $330/month in fuel cost savings
⸻
3. Reduced Wear & Tear / Extra Miles Avoided
• Assume 2 extra miles driven per fueling stop = 20 miles/day across fleet
• 20 miles/day × 22 days = 440 miles/month
• At $0.65 per mile (IRS vehicle cost estimate) = $286/month saved
⸻
Total Monthly Savings
• Labor: $1,826
• Fuel price: $330
• Wear & tear: $286
• Total = $2,442/month saved
That’s nearly $30,000 per year for just a 10-van fleet. Larger fleets = bigger savings.
