States Logistics Services, Inc. Partners with Dogswell for the Bow Wow Bailout

States Logistics Services Inc., a Third Party Logistics provider in Southern California and Phoenix Arizona partners with Dogswell for the BOW WOW BAILOUT. 

Beginning April 15th, DOGSWELL launched the DOGSWELL® BOW-WOW BAILOUT! DOGSWELL® is committed to providing up to 10,000 FREE bags of DOGSWELL® dry food for dogs, one per household, to folks who have lost their job, took a pay cut or had their hours cut due to this economic downturn. 

Families are being forced to take their pets to animal shelters or abandon them because they cannot afford to care for them anymore. DOGSWELL® decided it's time to give back and asked States Logistics Services, Inc. if they would participate in the handling and shipping of the orders from their operation in Ontario California.  “This is a great opportunity for States Logistics Services, Inc. to offer our 3PL services at no cost to help those in need,” said Ryan Donovan, V.P. - Operations and Business Development at States Logistics Services.

DOGSWELL® says it's doing everything it can to ensure that more pets stay in their homes and with their owners. Also, they will be attaching a coupon to each bag sent out for use at a local independent pet retailer so they can replenish their DOGSWELL® pet food supply at a deep discount. 

The DOGSWELL® Bow-Wow Bailout will last until May 15th. 

Applicants must fill out a redemption form. This form can be found at www.dogswell.com, by emailing bailout@dogswell.com or calling 888.559.8833.

Converting our transportation fleet to run on B99 biodiesel fuel

Biodiesel is a clean burning alternative fuel produced from domestic, renewable resources. Biodiesel contains no petroleum, but it can be blended at any level with petroleum diesel to create a biodiesel blend. It can be used in compression-ignition (diesel) engines with little or no modifications.  Biodiesel is simple to use, biodegradable, nontoxic, and essentially free of sulfur and aromatics. 

At States Logistics we have started the process of converting our transportation fleet to run on B99 biodiesel fuel.  B99 is a blend of 1% diesel and 99% biodiesel, which yields significant environmental benefits.  The environmental results we have witnessed thus far have been dramatic.  They include:

• Each biodiesel powered tractor is the equivalent of removing 18.6 cars from the road each day
  
• 100% decrease in the amount of sulfates released to the atmosphere
  
• 75% decrease in carbon dioxide emissions
  
• 90% decrease in nitrated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
  
• 67% decrease in total unburned hydrocarbons
  
• We are ecstatic with the results of our biodiesel initiative and are eager to complete the transition to our entire transportation fleet.
