'Going Green' for the Holidays with Five Star Holiday Decor

Five Star Painting takes on Five Star Holiday Decor, now to offer eco-friendly decorative holiday services.

2010-11-07

SPRINGVILLE, UT, November 07, 2010 (Press-News.org) Five Star Painting, Inc. already offers a comprehensive variety of painting services internationally, but this once exclusive painting company has now announced that they are branching out to other service forms. They recently announced their newest brand: Five Star Holiday Decor, which will offer holiday lighting services and tree delivery.

But this is no ordinary Holiday Decor business. Five Star Holiday Decor is providing lights and trees with an eco-friendly emphasis. They are offering a recycling program for old and no longer usable lights which can be replaced with energy efficient LED. In addition, Holiday Decor is partnering with Alliance for Community Trees, an organization focused on urban forestry. Customers can buy "living" (as opposed to "live") Christmas trees, which will be replanted upon the conclusion of the holiday season. They also offer recycling services for "live" trees.

Five Star Holiday Decor CEO Mark Knoch understands that the holidays should be a season of giving. He explains, "Along with clean and prompt set-up, removal and storage of holiday decorations, it's very important for us to do our part to help the environment. We can enjoy this holiday season knowing we're leaving the earth in better condition for holiday seasons to come." Knoch expresses excitement that many Five Star Painting locations have welcomed the eco-friendly Five Star Holiday Decor to their list of services.
Participating locations include:

• Cincinnati, Ohio
• Colorado Springs, Colorado
• Columbia, South Carolina
• Denton, Texas
• Denver, Colorado (NE, NW, SW)
• Edmonton, Alberta
• Indianapolis, Indiana
• Missoula, Montana
• Morristown, New Jersey
• Orem/Provo, Utah
• Park City, Utah

Five Star Holiday Decor is a franchise system specializing in holiday decor installation, maintenance, removal, and storage. They pride themselves in offering premium eco-friendly product options to their customers. Formed in 2010 by CEO Mark Knoch and with headquarters in Springville, Utah, Five Star Holiday Decor has partnered with Five Star Franchising to expand internationally with locations already in the United States and Canada. Many Five Star Holiday Decor franchisees also own franchises from their sister company, Five Star Painting which is the second largest painting franchise in North America according to the Franchise Business Review. Five Star Painting has locations in the United States, Mexico, Brazil, and Canada. Five Star Holiday Decor hopes to supplement these locations and also to expand independently to offer holiday decor services internationally.
