If you’re noticing higher costs, missed revenue opportunities, or inefficiencies in your tipper hire business, it may be time to evaluate your operations. At VWS Software Solutions, we developed PurGo, an ERP software tailored to help tipper and waste management companies streamline their processes, improve operational efficiency, and ultimately protect their profits. Here’s a closer look at how you can use PurGo to address some of the most common areas where tipper hire businesses lose money—and how to start regaining control.
1. Control Your Fleet and Reduce Downtime with Real-Time Tracking
For a tipper hire business, keeping the fleet on the road is essential to maintaining productivity and profitability. When vehicles are out of action due to breakdowns or inefficient scheduling, your bottom line takes a hit. PurGo offers comprehensive fleet management tools, allowing you to track every vehicle in real-time, monitor usage, and proactively schedule maintenance.
With PurGo’s tracking capabilities, you can see where your vehicles are at any given moment, ensuring they’re being used efficiently. And by scheduling regular maintenance alerts, you’ll reduce unexpected breakdowns, keeping your fleet on the road where it belongs. With better fleet control, you can minimise costly downtime and increase the number of jobs you complete each day.
2. Streamline Your Billing to Improve Cash Flow
Billing errors, delayed invoices, and inconsistent payment cycles can all have a serious impact on cash flow. PurGo’s comprehensive billing system allows you to automate invoicing, making sure that invoices are accurate, timely, and easy for customers to understand. Whether you’re billing by the hour, by load, or using custom pricing models, PurGo’s billing tools simplify the entire process.
Automated billing not only saves time for your admin team but also reduces the risk of missed or delayed payments. With PurGo’s invoicing system, you can track outstanding payments and send reminders, keeping cash flow steady and reducing the need for time-consuming follow-ups. A healthy cash flow means a more stable, resilient business—and with PurGo, staying on top of billing becomes a streamlined, error-free process.
3. Use Real-Time Data to Make Informed Decisions
Every decision you make in your tipper hire business affects your profitability, and having access to real-time data is essential for making informed choices. PurGo’s real-time reporting and dashboards provide insights into key metrics like fuel usage, job completion rates, and fleet performance, so you can see exactly where your business stands at any moment.
For instance, if you notice that certain routes or customers are consistently costing more, PurGo’s data can help you identify why. You might discover that some jobs aren’t profitable or that adjustments are needed in pricing or job allocation. With access to this data, you can quickly make changes to address problem areas, keeping your business on track financially.
4. Keep Customers Satisfied with Transparent Communication
Customer satisfaction plays a huge role in the success of your tipper hire business, and clear communication is key to maintaining positive relationships. PurGo includes a built-in CRM that helps you stay organised, track customer interactions, and ensure every customer gets timely updates on their jobs.
This level of organisation makes it easier to manage customer expectations and respond to any issues that arise. A satisfied customer is far more likely to return and refer your business to others, helping you build a loyal customer base. By using PurGo to keep communication smooth and transparent, you’re investing in long-term growth and stability for your business.
5. Ensure Compliance Without the Hassle
Compliance is a necessary part of the tipper hire industry, from duty of care regulations to vehicle checks. Managing compliance can be complex and time-consuming, especially if you’re relying on paper records. PurGo simplifies compliance by allowing you to store all relevant documents digitally, set automatic reminders for inspections, and quickly generate reports when needed.
With PurGo, you’re not just meeting compliance requirements—you’re doing so efficiently. The system keeps everything organised, so when you’re faced with an audit, you have everything ready at your fingertips. This not only saves time but also gives you peace of mind, knowing that you’re covered on the regulatory side without constant manual tracking.
