Introducing Eco-Green Auto Service from AAMCO |
|
The leader in transmissions and complete car care is now the leader in providing automotive services and shops that are friendly to the
environment. ECO-Green is a new certification class for AAMCO dealers who meet rigorous environmental standards that go well beyond
established federal and state requirements.
|
|
|
What it means to be ECO-Green |
|
The AAMCO ECO-Green dealer has to comply in ALL of the following areas:
|
|
Utilizes Low Impact Materials including Solvents: |
|
Each year millions of
gallons of toxic materials are released into
the environment, ultimately making their way
into the earth, water, and air. AAMCO
ECO-Green centers recycle solvents and use
water-based cleaners as alternatives to more
hazardous cleaners.
|
|
Waste Management of Solids and Fluids: |
|
The disposal of used
parts and waste fluids fills local landfills
and may pollute our water stream. As more
and more landfills are required they push
closer to residential neighborhoods. Older
sites that leak and those brimming with
toxic waste continue to be huge
environmental issues. AAMCO ECO-Green
centers recycle waste fluids and used
filters and have taken efforts to assure
that waste water from the center does not
enter the sewer system.
|
|
 |
|
Promote & Advance the use of Alternative Fuels |
ECO-Green AAMCO
centers promote measures that aid in greater
fuel efficiencies in our customers'
vehicles.
These include: promotion of alternative
fuels (E85), higher mileage oil, filters, &
components, insure proper tire inflation,
and offers new technologies which result in
more efficient and cleaner burning vehicles.
Every gallon of fuel that can be conserved
translates into 2.15 gallons of crude oil
saved. Some very simple conservation methods
can be adopted by motorists that
collectively can help save millions of
gallons of energy. AAMCO ECO-Green centers
offer low emission alternative fuel
solutions and other high-mileage energy
saving services.
|
|
Conservation of resources: |
Automotive shops use
utilities, fuel, and other natural resources
to run their businesses. Those resources can
be conserved through energy efficiency
methods. AAMCO ECO-Green centers have
committed to instituting low energy
solutions, solid waste recycling and buying
recycled products.

Visit our section on the new EPA-certified E85 conversion program, ready NOW for fleet owners and operators. There are numerous
benefits to converting your fleet to E85 fuel including supporting our domestic farmers and decreasing our dependence on foreign
oil, many states offer substantial tax breaks to operators who convert their fleet to alternative fuels, and E85 (105 octane)
is already on average 17% cheaper than traditional 87-octane gasoline. AAMCO-installed Flex
Conversion kits can pay
for themselves in as little as seven months.
