Case Study: Best Towing achieves regulatory compliance and 20% fuel-cost savings with FleetLocate

How One Towing Business Turned HOS Regulations to Its Advantage Using FleetLocate

Best Towing, a 30+-year Huntington Beach towing company with a 26-truck, 24/7 fleet handling about 4,500 AAA calls a month, needed a simpler way to meet Hours of Service requirements and prepare for future ELD rules. Their previous HOS app was hard to use and many longtime drivers resisted change, so leadership chose to skip paper logs and find an easy, driver-friendly ELD solution.

They implemented FleetLocate in 2018 to track all trucks, log HOS via a mobile app, and monitor driver behavior with custom speed alerts and unplug notifications. The system improved compliance, reduced speeding and time theft, enabled rapid recovery of a stolen truck, and cut fuel costs by about 20%—benefits Josh says have already made the solution pay for itself.
