Case Study: South Florida Gas Company cuts delivery costs by 25% with SkyBitz Tank Monitoring

SkyBitz Tank Monitoring Helps South Florida Gas Cut Delivery Costs & Keep Customers Happy

South Florida Gas Company, a propane supplier servicing a widespread and affluent customer base across three counties, faced significant challenges due to unpredictable customer usage patterns and hard-to-access outlying areas. These factors led to inefficient, frequent, and costly emergency delivery trips, which hurt their bottom line. Seeking greater operational efficiency, President Chuck Robb sought a solution and ultimately selected the SkyBitz Tank Monitoring service after their previous provider went out of business.

The wireless SkyBitz solution eliminated the need for trenching by installing monitoring devices under the tank cap, with no upfront equipment costs and only a nominal monthly fee. The system provides real-time tank level data via the SMARTank web portal and mobile app, enabling proactive refills instead of reactive emergency calls. As a result, South Florida Gas reduced its delivery costs by 25 percent through fewer driver hours, reduced vehicle maintenance, and the elimination of inefficient "gas taxi" trips, all while providing customers with greater peace of mind.
