In Bethel, OH, Wichard Oil is well known among locals for having everything your car needs, from parts and lubricants to gas and propane. But it all started back in 1932 when Ed Wichard left his job at Ford Motor Company and opened a service station to pump gas, check the oil, and put air in tires. Ed eventually expanded his business to meet the demands of the market—he started selling car accessories and even dabbled in fuel delivery.

Now Wichard Oil—which is managed by two of Ed’s grandchildren, Mark Wichard and Sue Church—has transformed into a one-stop shop for your car. Wichard Oil still checks your oil, pumps your gas, and puts air in your tires like it did when the shop first opened its doors, but the company also does much more.

In addition to car maintenance services, the local business sells new and reconditioned batteries, and even retails residential and commercial mowers. The shop also sells tires, bottles of propane, motor oil, hydraulic fluid, seasonal car accessories, and is an authorized dealer for PJ Trailers, Carry-on trailers, and HDX.

There’s nobody else in the area quite like Wichard Oil, and there is certainly nobody else with Wichard's level of experience. For all your car and gas needs, contact Wichard Oil at (513) 734-2266, or visit the website to see the shop's inventory. It takes a special level of know-how to stay in business for over 80 years, and Wichard Oil clearly has what it takes.
