With on-highway diesel fuel hovering around $4/gallon nationwide (never mind California!) and retail tire prices going through the roof, our members are looking for ways to reduce these costs. We’re pleased to announce that ICSA will soon be offering a new members-only vendor partnership for purchasing fuel at a discount at more than 1500 locations throughout the country. In addition, members will be able to purchase tires and related maintenance services at reduced costs. Watch your email and the ICSA website for more details coming soon.
