It’s no secret that it’s becoming increasingly difficult to run a trucking fleet these days without the benefit of some satellite technology. Royal Jones, CEO and Dean Rigg, CFO of Mesilla Valley Transport, talk about the reasons behind their company’s heavy investment in GPS trailer tracking technology and it’s effect of their bottom line.
With a SkyBitz equipped truck, your shippers will know you’re serious about customer service; and with aggressive easy installation and user friendly interfaces, you can be equally sure of SkyBitz’s commitment to delivering equally great customer service to you. Jeff Maynard from Turbo Logistics and Charlie Mudd, president of Vanguard Trailers, discuss the reasons they feel SkyBitz delivers a tracking solution that’s miles ahead of the competition.
For many trucking fleets, SkyBitz is becoming increasingly vital in managing their trailer-pool program. Though necessary to provide the best possible service to a company’s larger shippers, trailer-pools can be subject to abuses and lead to decreased asset utilization. Mike Kelley and Dean Rigg, from Mesilla Valley Transport, talk about how SkyBitz has helped them curb these abuses, increase asset utilization and increase the life of their fleet's tires.
There was a time when the tracking of unpowered assets was nothing more than a pipe dream; but recent advances have led to its viability, opening the door to all kinds of uses, especially in the tank truck industry where trailers can cost as much as $250,000 a piece. John McKethan, VP Sales & New Market Development for SkyBitz, discusses how the growth of unpowered asset tracking is having dramatic affects on asset utilization across the industry.
Three leaders of the trucking industry, Ray Kuntz from Watkins & Shepard Trucking, Jeff Maynard from Turbo Logistics and Gary Enzor from Quality Distribution, explain why they each decided on SkyBitz when they were looking for a solution to help them increase asset utilization. With more than 10,000 trailers and 4500 power units between them, they’ve seen dramatic decreases in both out-of-route miles and the size of their trailer pools, while simultaneously increase customer satisfaction.
