There’s no getting away from it – vehicles need regular maintenance to keep them operating at their best efficiency. Oils, coolant, brake fluid, filters all need regular replacement, not to mention the components that wear out with use, such as tyres, brake linings, exhausts and batteries.
Spare a thought, therefore, to what happens to the worn or contaminated components and fluids. At Staddlestones, we are committed to their proper disposal (often for recycling) on your behalf.
