Make Money Trucking: How to Increase Fuel Efficiency & Profit
As an owner-operator, you know that every penny counts.
Without a big company to back you up, every dollar you spend on maintenance and fuel comes right out of your pocket. It can be hard to make money in trucking.
You are basically running a small business where small problems can add up quickly and eat into already tight owner-operator income margins.
For instance, according to the 2018 Annual Fleet Fuel Study, truckers achieved a national average of just 5.61 MPG.
Beating this statistic and getting your MPG up by even a small margin can save you thousands of dollars over the course of a year.
If you aren’t turning a profit, your business can’t last. Let TruckLogics help you make money in trucking with these tips.

Schedule Truck Service Intervals
Obviously, your truck needs regular, scheduled maintenance according to its service interval to ensure that it keeps running — and making money — for years to come.
But it can be difficult to keep track of what has — and has not — been serviced on your truck, especially if you’re always on the road.
With TruckLogics, you can easily store information about each of your vehicles in a digital garage.
Each vehicle can be assigned truck service intervals based on mileage or time.
If you select mileage, TruckLogics can track automatically track mileage for each vehicle as it is dispatched.
TruckLogics will even send you reminders when your trucks are reaching their service intervals. All this can help you stay ahead of the curve and increase your owner-operator income.
