Penske Truck Leasing recently celebrated the grand opening of a new facility in Augusta, Ga., located on 1501 Dixon Airline Road. The 17,000-square-foot facility offers commercial and consumer truck rental services,
full-service truck leasing and contract maintenance.
About 40 leasing customers are handled at this nine-acre location and nearly 400 vehicles are maintained on-site.
The one-story building incorporates Penske Truck Leasing's new facility design elements, features state-of-the-art technology and is designed to enhance the customer experience. A new wireless technology component allows Penske service technicians to integrate various vehicle diagnostic and repair software. To save energy, GE fluorescent light bulbs with electronic ballasts using 50 percent less energy have been installed.
The facility cost approximately $5.5 million to construct, and has three service bays, an automated truck washing bay and a two-lane fuel island with high-speed fuel pumps for fast, efficient service.
