The Automotive Service Association of Arizona has been approved by the The Arizona Department of Environmental Quality to certify Arizona service locations as green. Auto shops already have certain environmental standards they must meet, but the shops certified as green go above and beyond what is required. To become certified shops must complete a checklist and score at least 300 points. This checklist covers areas such as cleaning, degreasing, energy conservation and require shops to use low hazard, low-pollution solvents or water-based cleaners, recycle waste fluids and oils, use energy-efficient lighting and A/C to name a few. To see a list of shops certified green and to see the checklist head over to ASAAZ.info.
