Excalibur practices water conservation in their car wash by filtering and recycling their used water, which reduces water use by approximately 300 gallons a year.

Shop towels are reused instead of thrown away, and cardboard and scrap metal are recycled. Approximately 4,800 pounds of cardboard are recycled each year, lowering solid waste disposal costs and sending less waste to the landfill. In addition, approximately 360 gallons of waterborne paint cleaner and solvent paint cleaner are recycled each year.

Through their commitment to the environment, Excalibur has become a positive example in the community. They are also helping the collision repair program at Lewis and Clark State College train their collision repair students in using water-based paint coatings.
