Automated fuel-management services deliver results and profitability in waste industry

The United States waste-management industry provides an essential and critical service that employs millions of Americans while generating annual U.S. revenues that are projected to reach $60 billion by 2016.

Given the economic impact waste management has on the U.S. economy, it is also an industry that must cope with constant change and daily challenges to operations that directly affect bottom-line profitability. In comparison to many other industries of such critical importance, the waste industry has had to deal with steadily tightening municipal budgets across the nation and the rising cost of the fuel that is required to power the fleets of trucks that are used to transport waste.
