Whether it’s 1 vehicle or 10, YOUR Fleet is the most important of all!
Small businesses are responsible for about half of the US GDP, but many small business owners don’t appreciate their own importance. “My business just has one car”, they say. “It’s not really a business fleet.” But it IS! Whether it’s one vehicle or 100, your business depends on the smooth and reliable function of its fleet. Every minute they’re off the road costs your company money. YOU come to Tom Dwyer because you appreciate the value of our trustworthy advice and dependable service. Whether it’s your own company or one you work for, don’t your BUSINESS’ vehicles deserve the same care and attention?
Since 1981, Tom Dwyer Automotive Services has provided individual and business vehicle service with a client satisfaction rate of 99.74%. Even if your “fleet” is one or two cars, don’t worry! Our Business Fleet Program is specifically designed for small fleets of cars, trucks, or vans rated one ton and under.
Up till now, you’ve either handled the vehicle chores yourself or someone else has squeezed them into the spare time of their regular job. You’ve consistently taken your vehicles to a Quicky Lube, followed the recommended service menus from the Dealership, and fixed problems when they cropped up. What’s wrong with that? Why bother with coherent, planned maintenance for your business vehicles?
Because proactive maintenance helps keep your vehicles in top shape, for a much longer time, while you concentrate on your business.
- Reliable vehicles stay on the road consistently, reducing your downtime
- Maintenance increases the useful life of your vehicles to reduce vehicle purchases
- Coherent maintenance programs are less expensive than fix-on-fail repair
- Coordination of maintenance schedules takes only one vehicle off the road at a time
- An outside company handling your Fleet concerns frees you up to do the parts of your business that actually make money.
Of course, WE see the benefits of coherent vehicle care… that’s what we do! But how does our approach work in the real world of business? Can it really deliver results? Here’s some thoughts from one of our longtime Business Fleet clients, Bill Blanchard of A-Max Security Solutions, on what our service has done for his company.
“We’ve had several different mechanics that have done work for us, but we generally didn’t find many mechanics who were true to their price structure or true to their word, and so we experienced a lot of repairs that cost a lot more than we originally intended. We always wanted the trucks fixed right the first time so we could keep the them on the road. The trucks make money, the trucks are our business, and we have to have those trucks on the road all the time. Tom understands that. Where a lot of the other mechanics would let our trucks sit for days, Tom makes them a priority, gets us the parts we need, and gets the trucks on the road the same day every time. We pull a lot of weight in our trucks and we drive them really hard. Before Tom we kept trucks an average of 3 years, maybe 4 on the outside, and then typically we’d have to get rid of them. Now the oldest truck in our fleet is 10 years old. At this point we’ve almost tripled the life expectancy of our trucks by taking them to Tom Dwyer.”
