Helping Neighbors and Customers One Stop at a Time
We hope everyone weathered Hurricane Helene safely. While we faced challenges, we’re grateful to have come through it stronger. A big thank you to Boswell Oil for ensuring delivery of fuel for our service vehicles, guaranteeing we could stay operational 24/7.
Hurricane Helene hit Meco hard. Employees endured extended power outages, and our buildings took a beating. Despite the setbacks, our team showed incredible resilience. After a night of hunkering down, they came together to rebuild. We lost the entire front of our warehouse, but our team quickly constructed a temporary wall system to secure the building.
Turning our focus to community support, Meco partnered with Boswell Oil, Kimberly Clark, Site Service, and Gearig Construction to assist the linemen located in Aiken, SC repairing the electrical grid with Storm Services. We provided support in keeping them with a reliable fueling operation. We also customized tanks for local customers and vendors and were grateful for GPI’s reliable supply of GPI Hand Crank Pumps and 12-volt pumps.
Our dedicated service techs worked tirelessly around the clock to restore customer’s gas stations. They tackled various issues, from resetting Point of Sale Systems to repairing dispensers and replacing submersible turbine pumps along with removing water from sumps.
Back at the office, our generator ensured we had lights to be able to work, power for our computer and fridge, and office fans. We assisted customers any way we could with work orders, parts, and any questions they had.
We’re proud of our team’s resilience and our ability to support our community during this difficult time. Thank you to everyone who helped us and our customers recover from Hurricane Helene.
