In just 60-seconds, we’ll show you how proper planning can trim your fuel costs. :60 Plan Your RouteFill up your vehicle and go. No. Plan your route. If you have a number of business errands to run. Plan your stops in advance, so you don't put extra miles on your vehicle and burn fuel needlessly.

:45 Set Boundaries & Plan Meetings For many people, Monday is the get back to work day--not a meeting day, so stop trying to schedule Monday meetings & then end up with meetings each day of the week. Plan ahead and offer Thursdays as a meeting day. Try to focus appointments on a single day & suggest a time that makes sense for a good route plan. Will it always work? No. But, every time it does you save miles.

:30 Bundle Activities Don't just run out to the post office. Put your outgoing mail and outgoing errands list in your outbox. Then, go out at one time & take care of the activities. Fewer trips is more efficient as well as fuel friendly.

:20 Avoid Rush HourPlan your errands and meetings in late morning or early afternoon, when traffic is lightest. You will arrive at your destinations faster and save money not sitting in bumper-to-bumper traffic that burns fuel just sitting still.

:05 Turn on Your Cruise Control Make long trips easier with cruise control. If your business requires you take a lot of long trips on the highway, save on gas and stress by activating your cruise control. A steady speed uses less fuel.
