Case Study: Dauber achieves up to 50% more hauling jobs and real-time fleet visibility with Samsara

Dauber's owner-operator partners get 50% more hauling jobs with Samsara’s location data and smart routing

Dauber is a construction‑materials startup led by Brian Jones that tackled a pervasive hauling problem: independent owner‑operators and contractors couldn’t coordinate efficiently, so trucks earned revenue only about 48% of the time, with lots of empty driving and downtime. The fragmented system made dispatching, tracking, and billing slow and error‑prone across material suppliers, job sites, and dump sites.

Dauber deployed Samsara VG‑series gateways in partner trucks and built its Dispatch App on Samsara’s REST API and Dashboard to get reliable real‑time locations, geofence and historical trip data, and fast integration. The result: instant fleet visibility, automated dispatching and billing, fewer empty miles, and an estimated up to 50% more hauling jobs for operators—boosting utilization, transparency, and profitability.
