We converted our entire fleet of vehicles to a special oil that
allows us to drive 25,000 miles between oil changes instead of the
standard 3,000 miles reducing our oil consumption by 12 oil
changes per year, per vehicle. That’s a savings of 2,484 quarts of oil
per year.
Instead of sending our oil to an energy consuming recycling facility
for processing, all of our used oil is delivered directly to
businesses that consume used oil for heating.
Our chauffeurs are instructed not to leave their vehicles idling while
their passengers are out of the vehicle for extended periods of time.
We use GPS units to calculate the shortest distance for each trip to
lower our fuel consumption and reduce our carbon footprint.
Our vehicle cleaning process utilizes used newspapers for cleaning
vehicle windows. Most people take for granted how many windows there
are on a limousine or bus, until you have to clean them. Our process
saves over 200 rolls of paper toweling per year.
Our chauffeur exterior vehicle safety inspection includes tire air
pressure. Not only is this important for safety, it is also proven to
reduce fuel consumption.
To reduce our office paper consumption, our job confirmations are
sent by email instead of fax unless otherwise instructed.
Our flight tracking software eliminates unnecessary, energy
consuming trips to the airport for delayed and cancelled flights.
