Routing for fuel distribution

FleetPanda's routing engine builds hazmat-compliant, compartment-aware routes for your whole fleet — set up around the rules your operation actually runs by. Your dispatcher reviews a plan and handles the exceptions instead of building every route by hand.

The same fleet does more, the routing know-how stops living in one person's head, and your dispatcher's morning gets a lot shorter.

How it works

Set up exactly the way you run

Set up exactly the way you run

FleetPanda takes the orders you pick, the trucks you select, and the rules your operation actually runs by — then hands your dispatcher a recommended set of hazmat-compliant routes. The work shifts from assembling every route by hand to checking a plan and handling the exceptions.

1

Set your constraints once

Compartments, retain, terminal supply, truck authorizations, driver hours, and delivery windows go in once — configured for how you run.

2

Run the optimizer

Pick your trucks, lasso your orders, and get back sequenced routes with terminal loads already placed. Any order that won't fit comes back with the reason why.

Review and publish

Change anything you want, then send the exact sequence to the driver app or print it for the cab. Nothing moves until you say so.

Built for fuel

Not a generic routing tool with fuel bolted on

Not a generic routing tool with fuel bolted on

Most optimizers treat every stop as a box on a map. Fuel doesn't work that way — there's product already on the truck, compartments that can't mix, terminals to reload at, and hazmat rules on every road. FleetPanda's engine is built around all of it.

Starts from what's actually on the truck

Most engines assume every truck rolls out empty. Yours don't — there's retain left from the last shift. FleetPanda plans around the fuel already on board, so it never sends a truck to load product it's still carrying or leaves usable gallons behind. The plan matches the truck, not a blank slate.

Compartments, not just stops

The engine routes compartments, not generic boxes. It checks product compatibility and prior product to prevent cross-contamination, respects per-compartment and gross vehicle weight, and handles fixed tankwagons, variable compartments, and mixed fleets.

Loads from multiple terminals

Trucks don't always return to base. When a truck needs to reload mid-trip, the engine picks the terminal that keeps miles and time down — and places the load for you.

You choose what it optimizes for

Balance the fleet across drivers, fill fewer trucks fuller, cut miles, or minimize retain. Same orders, different goal — you set which one the run chases.

Compliant by default

Hazmat trucks stay off residential streets. Routes respect commercial truck profiles — height, weight, length — and hazmat-approved corridors, without your dispatcher checking each one.
