Penske Truck Leasing builds facility in Wisconsin

Penske Truck Leasing announced it has opened a new state-of-the-art facility in DeForest, Wisc.

The new site offers consumer and commercial truck rental in addition to full-service truck leasing and contract truck fleet maintenance, Penske says.

The 20,040 sq.-ft. facility sits on 8.35 acres and is equipped with four drive-through service bays, an automated wash bay, a three-lane fuel island, two tire carousels, overhead service bay cranes, a building canopy and rapid lifting and lowering mobile column truck lifts, according to the company.

The facility also is outfitted with the company’s proprietary fully digital and voice-directed truck fleet preventive maintenance process and connected fleet solutions, a value-added resource to help customers address issues and options related to onboard technology systems, such as ELDs, telematics and onboard cameras.

“Our previous facility in the region served us well for a number of years, but recent growth and a desire to continuously improve our customers’ experience led us to creating this brand new and truly state-of-the-art facility,” says Mike Pritchard, senior vice president, Penske North Central Region.

“The building is conveniently located off U.S. Route 51 and Interstate 39, offering customers easy access to major transportation corridors,” Pritchard adds.
