Uniform rental company to expand autogas-fueled fleet
AmeriPride Services, a uniform rental and supply company, plans to add more propane autogas-fueled trucks to its fleet. AmeriPride has five Roush CleanTech Ford F-59 delivery trucks in Topeka, Kan. Banny Allison, AmeriPride fleet services manager, says the company is adding 20 more trucks in northern California this year because of the company’s success in Topeka.
AmeriPride installed a private autogas station with a 1,000-gallon tank at its Topeka facility to fuel its vehicles. Currently, the company pays $1.55 per gallon of propane autogas.
