Take 5 Oil Change Opens First Store in Philadelphia

Take 5 Oil Change has opened its first store in Philadelphia, according to a press release.

Equipped with three service bays, the new store is located at 2250 Cottman Ave, at the corner of Cottman Ave. and Bustleton Ave. next to Midas Repair Shop. The brand already serves the greater Philadelphia region with a shop in Jenkintown, and another location is set to open this December in Montgomeryville.

To celebrate its Philadelphia debut, Take 5 will host an “Oil for Oil” charitable event all day on Dec. 9, inviting community members to bring a sealed bottle of cooking oil to donate to Philabundance, a nonprofit food bank serving southeastern Pennsylvania and southern New Jersey. Donors will save 50% on their oil change, and the Take 5 Oil Change Foundation will contribute an additional $5,000 to support Philabundance’s mission to fight hunger.

The “Oil for Oil” celebration on Dec. 9 will also include a ribbon-cutting ceremony with the Chamber of Commerce for Greater Philadelphia, lunch provided by a local business, and family friendly activities including meet and greets with the Take 5 mascot.

“Opening a new Take 5 Oil Change location means more than just growing our brand, it’s about becoming part of North America’s local communities,” said Eric Wollenhaupt, senior vice president of franchise operations at Take 5 Oil Change. “We’re thrilled to work with local franchise partners who share our commitment to delivering fast, reliable, and simple service that drivers in Philadelphia can count on.”
