toogoodtowaste, the leading reuse charity in South Wales, has revealed significant cost and efficiency savings with Webfleet, Bridgestone’s globally trusted fleet management solution.
The Ynyshir-based charity has slashed fuel consumption by more than 45 litres per week and gained an hour of operation per van per day, equating to annual savings of more than £3,000 and more than 2,000 calls.
toogoodtowaste – a long-standing client of specialist Webfleet partner Charity Fleetcare that deployed the solution operates a fleet of nine vans to collect household items and surplus stock from high-street retailers. These are then sold to sustain the non-profit or provided to people in need.
“Webfleet aligns perfectly with our sustainability objectives with its integration into our operations leading to more efficient route planning for collections and deliveries,” said Shaun England, CEO of toogoodtowaste.
“What’s more, by giving us real-time feedback on driver behaviour, Webfleet OptiDrive 360 has enabled us to achieve further savings through the promotion of more fuel-efficient driving practices.
“Our fuel costs and carbon footprint have been cut dramatically and we have freed up a considerable amount of time that we can now use to support more people in our community and reduce waste to landfill.”
Recognising the importance of futureproofing its fleet, toogoodtowaste invested in Webfleet knowing Bridgestone is committed to continual innovation.
“When we transition to electric vans, we can do so with confidence, utilising Webfleet’s dedicated EV management tools to support our operational needs and environmental responsibilities,” added Shaun.
“Webfleet offers us peace of mind as we look to adopt more sustainable fleet practices.”
Ron Hutton, Managing Director at Charity Fleetcare, which exclusively serves the charity sector, praised the collaboration.
“Partnering with toogoodtowaste has been a fantastic experience,” he said. “The impact of Webfleet on their operations is remarkable – from reducing fuel costs and enhancing productivity to streamlining operations to help them better serve the community of Rhondda Cynon Taf.”
