In 1984, automotive entrepreneur Larry Read started Oil Changers with a single location in the Bay Area. His vision was to provide a fast and convenient lube and oil experience, getting customers back on the road fast. Oil Changers was one of the first operators to develop the drive through, stay-in-your-car oil change model and we have continued to perfect it over the years.
Now, with 55+ locations and counting, Oil Changers is the leading and largest independent fast oil and lube business spanning California and Hawai’i. Despite our growth, we remain committed to giving back to the communities we serve, developing our employees both personally and professionally, and practicing sustainability in business.
