Home Oxygen Company — a Modesto, California-based supplier specializing in respiratory, nebulizer and sleep apnea equipment — now has a delivery fleet that runs entirely on electricity.
The company said in a Feb. 10 announcement that switching its delivery fleet to Chevrolet BrightDrop Zevo vans is “strengthening delivery reliability and operational consistency across its home medical equipment services.”
By taking the step to standardize delivery operations around purpose-built electric vehicles, “Home Oxygen Company is reducing variability across its delivery footprint and increasing control over response time, routing and performance accountability,” the announcement added. “The fleet transition supports predictable service windows and minimizes disruptions that can occur with aging or inconsistent vehicles.”
Home Oxygen Company has configured the zero-emissions vehicles “specifically for transporting home medical equipment, pairing cargo optimization with modern fleet tracking and monitoring systems,” the supplier added. “The result is interruption-resistant delivery supported by real-time visibility and performance data.”
Changing over to all-electric delivery vans is one part of “a broader operational modernization effort focused on reducing friction across the delivery experience,” the company said.
“For us, this decision is about stewardship,” said Andrea Ewart, president of Home Oxygen Company. “A reliable fleet is foundational to how we operate. These vehicles help us respond faster, operate more consistently, and meet our responsibility to the people and communities who depend on our services.”
