What is your porter staff costing you?

Your porters represent the first and last impression of your dealership to your customers and they cost you more than payroll expense.

Bad surveys. Missed damage inspections. Lost keys. Call-offs. Techs waiting on vehicles. Unorganized parking lots. Costly damage claims. Your advisors taking time away from customers and their desk picking up the slack.

Service managers and directors spending time interviewing, hiring, and supervising positions that turn over up to 300% annually — and are often left unmanaged entirely.

We change that. Often without increasing personnel expenses.

Damage Claims? Not Yours.

Damage claims hit our P&L, not yours. Highly insured with an extensive risk management program. Our insurance coverage serves as primary on every vehicle we operate.

No Long-Term Contracts

No “Gotcha’s” — No setup fees. We earn it every day. Often resulting in cost-neutral — or better — than equivalent internal personnel expenses, with better results.

Valet Pick-Up & Delivery (PDEL)

PDEL is a logistics-heavy operation most dealers don't have the bandwidth to manage internally. We handle the drivers, coordination, and on-site management to run a program that actually scales — without adding operational complexity to your team.

Car Wash Teams

The service wash is the last impression your customer takes home — and most dealerships only complete it consistently 45% of the time. We staff and manage your wash operation so every RO goes out clean, on time, and without pulling your techs or porters off task to cover the bay.

See how Citrin can work for you.

No long-term contracts. No pitch deck, no pressure, just a 15-minute conversation.
