Penske Truck Leasing has opened a new facility at 633 NW 50th Avenue in Ocala, Florida. The new location, situated near Interstate 75, expands Penske’s capacity to serve customers and meet growing demand in the region.
The 20,864-square-foot facility, which sits on 8.62 acres, features five drive-thru bays with 10 service areas, an automated wash bay, and a full-service fuel island. The location provides consumer and commercial truck rental, full-service truck leasing, and contract truck fleet maintenance.
“The new Ocala facility reflects our commitment to investing in infrastructure that supports both our customers and associates,” said Paul Johnson, area vice president – Florida, for Penske Truck Leasing. “With expanded capabilities and advanced technology, we are better positioned to meet the region’s transportation needs efficiently and reliably. This facility also enhances our ability to provide seamless service for both consumer and commercial customers in a rapidly growing market.”
Details of the Penske Ocala Facility
Penske’s previous Ocala facility operated on a 2.5-acre site with limited parking and three service bays. The new facility’s expanded space addresses these constraints while incorporating Penske’s proprietary fully digital and voice-directed preventative maintenance process and Penske digital experience solutions. This enables customers to utilize advanced onboard technology systems, including electronic logging devices (ELDs), telematics, and onboard cameras.
Located Near Key Transportation Routes
With its proximity to major transportation routes, the Ocala facility is positioned to serve the area’s growing population and commercial activity. It is designed to enhance service capabilities and provide the infrastructure needed to support future demand.
