When it comes to refuelling, using a fuelcard can bring substantial savings. But just as no two road recovery operators are quite the same – differences in area of operation, number of vehicles, type of fuel used etc. - there are also significant differences between fuelcards.
That’s why AVRO – The Association of Vehicle Recovery Operators – has teamed up with Abbey to offer AVRO members the full range of AVRO. Members can select the card that best fits their individual business needs – and thus achieve the best savings in both fuel and administration costs.
A fuelcard for business - AVRO Fuelcards from Abbey are business fuelcards, and offer a much better deal than retail fuelcards. Retail fuelcards can cost you £1 or more per month per card, but all they offer is some convenience. With a retail fuelcard you still pay the full pump price, and management reports and on-line account access cost extra.
AVRO members with an Abbey Fuelcard will be able to buy fuel BELOW posted pump prices – normally at least 2-3p per litre lower. In addition, the discount fuel price is set on a weekly basis, Sunday- Saturday, and is applicable at all sites accepting the card concerned throughout the country.So AVRO fuelcard holders will know beforehand the savings available, and won’t have to drive around looking for the best deal in town. Not surprisingly, annual fuel cost savings can be substantial.
The fuel you use, at convenient locations - That said, it’s equally important that refuelling sites that accept your fuelcard are located conveniently for your operating area - and cover the type of fuel that you use. That's why AVRO members have a choice of three AVRO:
- fastfuel– giving discounted petrol and diesel at some 1400 nationwide outlets including all Texaco and Morrisons Supermarkets nationwide.
- Diesel Direct – offering fixed price diesel at over 1100 UK locations
- euroShell– discounted diesel at motorway and major trunk road Shell service stations that are all HGV friendly.
Individual service - Furthermore, AVRO members can tailor their account and management reporting service to suit their particular needs and operating requirements. This simplifies administration and delivers additional savings to further increase bottom line profitability and competitiveness.
