HOW TO START A FUEL TRANSPORTATION BUSINESS
Entering the fuel transport and logistics industry isn’t necessarily challenging, but there are numerous obstacles you will need to overcome to ensure your initial success.
It doesn’t matter if you’re starting off with a small Truck or a fleet of vehicles, you must have a firm understanding of your finances, market competition and more. To launch a venture, read this guide to starting a fuel transport and logistics business in 2020.
✅Transporting fuel isn’t as simple as it seems
Tanker transportation of petrol and diesel is a job which requires the application of specialised skills, so it’s important to have good knowledge regarding the operation of equipment and the regulations that apply.
✔Regulations
The regulations are long, complex and apply to not just to the driver and the vehicle but also to safety.
✔Drivers
Drivers of vehicles transporting dangerous goods such as diesel and petrol require a category D professional driving permit. The minimum age for new drivers transporting dangerous goods is 25 years to ensure that only experienced drivers are transporting this flammable product.
Drivers of dangerous goods vehicles above 3 500 kg GVM are required to undergo training by a body approved by the National Department of Transport in order to obtain the certificate needed to qualify for a “D” category.
✔General duties
The driver has to be familiar with the route to be taken. The driver must carefully check the condition of the vehicleAll necessary documents must be kept in the vehicle .Warning signs and warning devices to be displayed or stored in the vehicle,Be sure that the vehicle has the correct type and number of fire extinguishers fitted to the vehicleThe vehicle must contain protective clothing
✔Learn the rules
The best way to understand the regulations that apply to the trucks and to safety issues is to contact the BERA and buy the “Dangerous Goods Digest, The Orange Book of Southern Africa”.
This loose-leaf system is all you’ll need to fully understand and comply with the Dangerous Goods Regulations and the various relevant SANS Standards which you have to comply with in order to transport fuel. This can be ordered online.
âš What is more profitable to transport, petrol or diesel?
According to Marco Swanepoel of MS-SM Transport & Petroleum, it is more profitable to transport petrol as it is the most used in Botswna furthermore most of the diesel contracts are taken up. Petrol contracts are signed for a period of 12 – 60 months.
đź’®Funding of the project
One can always require/request start up capital from funding institutions such as CEDA,commercial banks and other government funding institutions.
đź’®Consider the Essential Costs
Before you get started, you must develop a rock-solid understanding of your company’s finances, which can ensure your business success from day one. For example, you must identify where you will secure capital for your new venture, so consider a private investment, bank loan orbootstrapping.
You’ll also need to factor in associated business expenses, such as:
đź’®License and toll feesMaintenance costsFuel pricesFees for driver development training
You must also find and lease a business premises to protect all vehicles when off the road, and you must invest in security features, such as CCTV monitoring, alarms, etc.
đź’®Source the Right Fuel truck & Tankers
It is crucial to source the right vehicles for your transport and logistics business. For example, it will be a challenge for a small minivan to transport a big order, which can make your business appear unprofessional and it could potentially lead to goods being damaged during transit.
By providing a driver with the correct vehicle for a job, your company can enjoy greater productivity while providing customers with a dependable service. So, if you need to transport large cargo for lengthy journeys, you’d be smart to invest in a long-haul truck.
đź’®Find the Best Business Insurance
Business insurance can provide financial coverage for a variety of claims against your company, such as personal injury, property damage, vehicle damage, and workers’ compensation. Of course, as different companies will have different needs, it is wise to find the right insurance for a business online, which can be specifically designed to complement your organization’s requirements.
đź’®Provide Business Permits and Licenses
To kickstart your fuel transport and logistic business, you will need to secure a variety of licenses and permits. The requirements will, however, be determined by your state.
Most fuel businesses will require companies to possess various tax forms and a business permit to operate legally. It is, therefore, worthwhile consulting an experienced business lawyer to gain an understanding of the licenses and paperwork you will need to ensure you strictly follow a state’s regulations.
đź’®Recruit the Best Drivers
It’s not only high-quality vehicles that will secure your company’s productivity, reliability, and profitability, but your employees will also determine your success in the industry.
In addition to proving they have the relevant licenses to legally operate your vehicles, they also must have the right attitude and experience to excel in the role. It is important to trust your judgement when recruiting drivers.
Plus, you should always perform background checks to ensure a candidate doesn’t have a criminal record that could impact your fleet, profitability and, most importantly, the lives of others. For example, you should not hire a truck driver who has been convicted of a DUI
