Fleet:

Lease Line Inc., a NationaLease member, is a medium-sized, full-service trucking rental company.

Situation:

Lease Line has a wide variety of customers and equipment with vastly different tire needs. Plus, many of their trucks have emergency service needs outside the coverage area of the local dealer.

Solution:

Working together, Bandag and Lease Line found the best all-around tread design for their drive-axle and trailer-axle applications, saving them, conservatively, 30% on their tire budget. Moreover, service call times were cut from three hours of downtime before ETA (Emergency Tire Assistance) to less than two hours, and often their trucks were rolling in about an hour.

"Regardless if we purchased a Bandag retread in Chicago or L.A., we always receive the same high quality."
