Landscapers must keep track of a lot of details to be successful. Whether it be tools, vehicles, or employees, there can be a lot on your plate. Fuel cards can provide the tools to make tracking one of your largest business expenses much easier.
Fuel can be a huge expense for a business. This is especially true for landscaping. Fueling vehicles and high-powered tools are important to getting the job done quickly. A fuel card can ease the stress on your wallet with fuel at wholesale price. Saving on every gallon can lead to a huge difference and more money in your pocket.
Wholesale fuel is not only for diesel. Cardlock sites provide every type of fuel, diesel, unleaded gas, propane, non-ethanol, and many more. You will never have to worry whether the product you need is available to you.
Unlike trucking or delivery routes, landscapers are constantly going to different places for work. Even with the uncertainty of where your next job will take you, know that there will be a cardlock site nearby whenever you need to fuel. Whether it’s right down the street from your main office, or on the other side of the city, fuel networks will have you covered wherever you go. these sites have larger lanes, higher canopies, and easy access from the street, making fueling your vehicles and all your equipment just that much easier.
Fuel cards give managers the ability to control every aspect of the cards. You choose the amount of fuel purchased, who uses them, the types of fuel, and where it can be purchased. Fuel cards can only be used for fuel, so don’t have to worry about non-fuel related purchases on your invoices. The limits and control are also fully customizable. So, if you feel that the limits are either too strict or too loose and need to add more cards, or change how employees can use the fuel cards, give us a call at any time to change them!

Fuelman, CFN, and Pacific Pride: Finding the Right Fuel Card for You
For fleet managers looking at cardlock fuel cards, you will likely come across Pacific Pride (PacPride) and Commercial Fueling Network (CFN). These are two of the largest cardlock fuel networks in the country, with locations available in 43 states and Canada. But what makes these two networks different? And more importantly, what does that mean for your fleet?
Fuel cards can make managing your fleet’s fueling easy and help to keep your prices at the pump low. To start, using a fuel card means purchasing fuel at wholesale prices. This means increased savings to help lower operating costs. Along with savings, fuel cards allow you to manage who is buying fuel in your fleet, limit what fuel products can be purchased, provide added fraud prevention, and control what sites you fuel at. These controls give you the power to track where your money is going when refueling your fleet. Both Pacific Pride and CFN offer easy-to-use management tools to track your fuel usage to keep your fleet running as smoothly as possible.
Both CFN and PacPride are similar in that they offer the ability to track all fuel purchases, limit which fuel types can be bought, and offer thousands of cardlock sites to fuel at. However, the big differences come with where you can fuel. Pacific Pride is not available in Louisiana, Kentucky, Minnesota, New York, New Jersey, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Maine. CFN is not available in Delaware, Maryland, Maine, Nebraska, New Jersey, New York, North Dakota, Oklahoma, and South Dakota. Be sure that the fuel network you choose fits with the states that you operate in. For more information, look at the full lists of sites for CFN here and for PacPride here.
Along with this, CFN cards can only be used at CFN sites and PacPride cards can only be used at PacPride sites. However, you can sign up for both cards to ensure the ability to fuel anywhere, no matter the network.
Another option is the Fuelman network. While PacPride and CFN are cardlock networks, Fuelman is a retail network. So, this means a Fuelman cardholder can fuel at one of the many participating retail brands. This can help make finding a location to fuel easy, as you do not have to look for cardlock sites on your routes. Instead, pull into any Chevron, Sinclair, Wawa, etc., and fuel up with the same cardlock advantages of CFN and PacPride.
We know it can be a tough choice to decide which network to join, so give us a call at 1-800-523-0600 or click here and we can walk you through our Jubitz fuel card offerings!
