Love’s announces new Speedco locations

OKLAHOMA CITY, April 8, 2021 - Love's Travel Stops is now serving customers at six new Speedco locations that are open 24/7. The locations offer tire, lube and light mechanical services, as well as DOT inspections, for professional drivers and fleets at affordable costs. Commercial drivers can stop at over 400 locations across the country for their needs.

"We're continuing to add new products and services to help get professional drivers back on the road quickly and safely so they can continue to deliver essential goods throughout the country," said Gary Price, executive vice president of Truck Care. "Because maintenance and uptime are high priorities for professional drivers, we're offering high-performance, heavy-duty Love's Premium 10W-30 Oil and adding lobby bay monitors at these locations so drivers can monitor service and speed."

Love's Truck Care and Speedco is the nation's largest preventive maintenance and total truck care network, with more than 1,500 maintenance bays and the most comprehensive, roadside coverage in the country.

Here are the newest opened Speedco locations:

• 17110 Brandy Branch Road, Jacksonville, Florida 32234.
• 775 American Road, Napoleon, Ohio 43545.
• 680 U.S. Highway 30, Bliss, Idaho 83314.

Love's is also looking for team members to join the company, including diesel technicians, service advisors, tire technicians and diesel technician apprentices for its Speedco and Love's Truck Care locations across the country. Love's prestigious diesel technician apprenticeship program - valued at $12,000 - allows apprentices to earn a competitive wage while working toward the designation of a diesel technician, all while taking on zero debt, which is typically associated with apprenticeship programs. Upon successful completion of the apprentice program, apprentices will receive a tool kit valued at $3,500, which is theirs to keep after one year of employment as a diesel technician. Newly hired diesel technicians can make between $22-$32 an hour, plus commission after achieving certain sales milestones.
