It speaks to the way we do business: First Class,” said Bill Laforet, owner of Mahwah Sunoco. “This designation reaffirms our commitment to practicing ‘green’ techniques and our goal to reduce our impact on the environment and the community. We have owned Mahwah Sunoco for 33 years and are life-long Mahwah residents.

The checklist includes pollution prevention and resource conservation measures, waste fluids management, energy and water conservation efforts, waste water reduction, and protection of customers and workers at the facility. Each “green” initiative is assigned a point value and repair shops must achieve a minimum of 300 points to qualify for – and maintain – “green” certification by NJGARP. Mahwah Sunoco has earned on of the highest scores in the state, an elite achievement. Call (201) 529-3137 for information or to schedule an appointment.
