At espas, we're always looking for ways to minimize our environmental impact and maximize efficiency. That's why we partner with third-party carriers and use trucks that have already unloaded their cargo and are now on their way back to transport our playground equipment. These trucks would still be on the road even if they weren't carrying our playground equipment. By loading them with our playground equipment, we can maximize their capacity and reduce the number of empty runs.
Every delivery truck that returns empty is a missed opportunity. Empty journeys are inefficient and consume unnecessary fuel. Furthermore, they cause unnecessary emissions. That's why we work with external carriers and leverage their expertise and resources. They have a wealth of experience in transport and logistics and provide us with efficient and reliable delivery services. They are also able to optimize our delivery routes so that we can fully utilize trucks on their return journeys, thereby avoiding empty journeys. This helps reduce our environmental impact and lower our carbon footprint.
“The use of empty runs also affects delivery costs, as these are significantly cheaper than trucks that are booked specifically for a delivery and then return empty. "We pass these cost savings directly on to our customers through our low prices," explains Managing Director Holger Aukam. "This creates a win-win situation for everyone involved."
