Case Study

R.S. Davis Recycling uses EROAD to simplify mileage reporting, track off-road miles and even reduce paper waste.

Recycler eliminates paper waste

I would like to start off by saying thank you so much, EROAD. I am probably going to lose my job.

I love math and looked extremely forward to calculating all the drivers’ out-of-state mileage and change in configurations on a monthly basis. I loved having to call the drivers (they would never answer their phones; I think they knew they were in trouble). I could not decipher their handwriting through the coffee-stained paper and had to ask them why their configurations were all wrong and their numbers made absolutely no sense.

I enjoyed getting frustrated with my dispatcher for not having all the Oregon mileage and out-of-state mileage sheets turned in at the end of the month and was constantly fighting the deadlines. We went rounds and because not only is he the dispatcher, he is my uncle, it was a true battle sometimes.

I also enjoyed having to fumble through every fuel bill to calculate the total gallons used and figure out the average miles per gallon used. When the drivers would use their credit cards to purchase fuel, I would have to hang onto those little receipts and try to add all those gallons back to the total.

I especially loved filling out the mileage reports. Now with one click of a button and about five minutes of work, my report is filled out for me and my frustration is all gone.

So all I can say to you EROAD, is thank you for most likely eliminating my job by making this mileage reporting so easy. I hope I can find a job for a company who still needs someone to do their mileage and does not know about EROAD yet.

Thank you so much for making our relationship better and for allowing me to not dread the mileage reports so much.

We never kept track of off-road miles before because the paperwork was just too much. With your geofences, its nothing and saves us money we never could before. I think I am your biggest fan.
