Time For A Little Recognition!

To find young men that share the same passion to work hard and do whatever it takes to accomplish the goal at hand is something not to be looked over. I’ve had the privilege of meeting 100’s of valet parkers throughout the industry. Some do it to help pay for college and others just to have some extra money to help pay bills. A successful Valet company is built not on an individual effort but as group that together works...

Kyle Old Boot Johnson

There are certain employees that just make you smile…. Kyle is that essential smile for our company and was one of the first valets to put on a Five Star jacket. When the company first started Kyle stood by with a positive outlook always saying “ Relax Michael… everything is going to be ok!” or “you happy now!!!” after completing an important event. Perfection is something we always strive for and it is nice to know that I have someone...

We Say Farewell To An Old Friend & An All Star Valet

I remember when John O’Connor came rolling up to our offices 8 years ago looking for a job. He was referred by a close employee and had all the characteristics to be a Five Star Valet Attendant. It wasn’t long before I knew that I had an all star valet on my hands and after time a good friend. In the business I am in it is hard to find employees that will go above and beyond without asking. John...

Five Star Valet Parks The Oak Brook Taste….Again!

So you ask me what should we do when 35,000 people show up on July 3rd ready to enjoy the holiday. I say “Start RUNNING!!!” There is no room for error when you have children running all around and moms caring half of their children’s toys with them. Five Star Valet has been here before but this year we conducted our program like a symphony. Organization – Preparation – Good Vibes !! Is all we needed. We have been so...

Directing Traffic At The Taste Of Oak Brook

Five Star Valet took on the huge responsibility of traffic control of the Oak Brook Taste. We confidently and successfully kept over 25,000 people moving and assisted over 7,000 Cars to designated parking areas. That's right ladies and gentlemen this was truly by far an event to remember. What I love deeply about our company is the confidence we display on a daily basis to our valued customers. Whether we park 40 or 1,000 cars, we conducted ourselves with class...
