Free Fuel Optimization Module for Interstate Fleets from TransCore

PORTLAND, OR - TransCore's Fuel & Mileage Tax Reporting Service adds a free fuel optimization module that efficiently routes trucks to multiple, interstate destinations, minimizing fuel use and cost.

Typically costing $20 per month from other services, TransCore's free fuel optimization module lets users input information, including the city of origin and trip destination and the truck's average miles per gallon and fuel tank capacity. The module provides detailed routing, an estimate of costs for fuel and taxes, and recommended locations for fuel purchases based on the fuel cards a trucker uses. Results also include a map and estimate of tax obligations by state.

"With our web-based Fuel & Mileage Tax Reporting, companies don't have to spend hours going through driver trip reports and then enter mileage and fuel data onto spreadsheets or state tax forms. Instead, we enter and store trip data and calculate the tax liabilities in compliance with the International Fuel Tax Agreement and International Registration Plan," said Steve Baumhardt, vice president of business development at TransCore. "The Fuel Optimization Module basically provides companies with a free decision tool for greater efficiencies that save companies even more money."
