Serving the laundering needs of hotels, restaurants, and event centers means it is incredibly important to make timely deliveries of linens, so each shift has its needs met.
Whether you’re doing all the laundering for these facilities, such as towels, sheets, tablet cloths, napkins, and even uniforms, or you’re only handling specific items, the need to provide prompt service with fast turnaround times is paramount. What you might not know, is that GPS tracking can help you improve your business in many ways, including those listed below.
Route around Event Traffic and Rush Hour Congestion
In order to be where they are needed most, many hotels are located along well-traveled paths. This often makes them vulnerable to high traffic and rush hour congestion. Planning pick-up and drop-off routes around the heaviest traffic hours allows you to be more efficient with your pickups and deliveries.
If your fleet brings help and supplies to communities recovering from storms like hurricanes, floods and tornadoes, GPS fleet tracking technology can be extremely valuable. Monitoring recovery equipment through the use of GPS fleet tracking devices can make your recovery and relief efforts faster and more efficient.
Take the latest hurricane on the East Coast of the U.S., Dorian, vehicles were tossed around like toys, homes ripped to shreds and people missing as rescue teams continued fighting flooding and the hurricane’s waning outer bands to try and provide help to those stranded in the Bahamas.
As a commercial laundry and linen services company, you have a huge responsibility keeping the biggest businesses in your city stocked with clean and spotless linens, sheets, towels, tablecloths, napkins, and uniforms. You’re responsible for helping them put their best faces forward to their customers. That means that getting the items delivered in time for major events, lunch rushes, and shift changes is extremely important for your business and for theirs.
These are just a few ways GPS fleet tracking can help your commercial laundry and linen service do just that.
