Economic Slump: Don’t Become a Statistic

Whether you’ve been pumping septic tanks for decades or you just purchased your first vacuum truck, when money and expensive equipment are involved, your small business is at risk for economic problems. Remember 2008? If you were forced to downsize or took a hit in profits, you know first-hand the damage that can be done. Find out how you can safeguard your septic business from another devastating economic collapse. www.pumper.com/featured

Regular Septic Tank Pumping Puts Money in Your Pocket

Perhaps you have a bad taste in your mouth about increased regulations, but think long term. Mandatory septic pumping and system inspections mean more jobs for you and ultimately, more money in your pocket. www.pumper.com/featured

Top Heavy: High-Load Crashes Rising

Unfortunately, bridge strikes are not uncommon. For instance, one railroad overpass in North Carolina was hit 13 times in 13 months — once a month! The good news? Using proper GPS systems can prevent these costly — and sometimes deadly — crashes. Learn about new standards for commercial-driver navigation systems, and see how simple updates can prevent high-load accidents. www.pumper.com/featured

Yay or Nay? Increased Fuel Efficiency

New regulations seek to make your work rigs more efficient, which can save you money on fuel, too. Think big picture. The less fuel your truck uses long term, the more dough you’ll keep in your pocket. Of course, there are always two sides. As a business owner who invests in dump trucks, equipment-hauling medium-duty flatbeds or vacuum trucks, do you favor or oppose a plan that reduces emissions, raises mpg standards and adds to the price of a truck? www.pumper.com/featured
