Firestone Complete Fleet Care Goes Green

On June 18 and 19, Firestone Complete Fleet Care hosted representatives from 30 key business partners at an informational symposium in St. Louis that centered on how the automotive industry is taking steps to reduce its environmental impact.

Firestone Complete Fleet Care, owned and operated by BFS Retail & Commercial Operations, services individual accounts and partners with major maintenance management programs to perform manufacturer or fleet-scheduled maintenance, the company said.

At the 12th annual event, representatives from Firestone Complete Fleet Care, BFRC, Bosch, Hunter, Safety Kleen and Champion Laboratories provided information on new technologies and products, fuel efficiency, recycled oil and fluids. The meeting also highlighted several of BFRC’s environmental initiatives, including being the first in the automotive repair industry to commit to using steel wheel weights instead of traditional lead wheel weights, piloting the first environmentally friendly oil change service in Portland, and servicing hybrids at select retail locations, the company said.
