ALEXANDRIA, Va., March 12, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Yates Service, Inc. today announced the launch of Complimentary White Glove Vehicle Pickup & Delivery Service and Complimentary Full-Service Gas Pump Attendants at Yates Automotive / Sunoco in response to our customers' and community's growing concern of the spread of COVID-19.
