Commercial
Service centres, dealerships & shop partnerships
Running a successful car dealership, tire servicing centre or automotive repair shop?
Tire Chalet works with some of the most well known service centres, dealerships and shops in the Calgary, Edmonton and Winnipeg surrounding areas.
Part of your regular maintenance is helping customers with a new set of winter tires or summer tires. You pull off the old ones and put on the new. What do you do with the old ones? Package those dirty things up and send them back with the customer? Or, are you storing them in your facility somewhere, taking up unnecessary space that could be better used for things like merchandise? Bulky, round tires can be a nasty tripping hazard for your staff, too.
Want to clear those tires out of the shop, or adding an extra layer of value for your customers at NO extra charge to you?
