By investing in your trailer fleet, you can increase the amount of towing and carrying capacity within your fleet.
- You don’t need additional vehicles– To begin with, you do not need to purchase additional vehicles in order to double the capacity of your fleet. A trailer can also be a more affordable investment than purchasing an additional van.
- No additional fuel needed– A trailer does not have an engine! It means that the cost of fuel to run the trailer is not an additional expense.
- No Exhaust Gases– A trailer does not produce exhaust fumes because it has no engine and uses no fuel.
- Minimal Environment Risk– Because there are no exhaust fumes, there is a minimal risk to the environment compared to if you ran an additional vehicle.
- Minimal Fuel Consumption– The fuel consumption of your vehicle is minimal, depending on the towing vehicle and the engine capacity. The impact is estimated to be around a 12.5% reduction in the fuel consumption.
