Penske Truck Leasing Expands in Illinois

READING, Pa., January 6, 2020 – Penske Truck Leasing has opened a new facility in East Dundee, Illinois, a northwest suburb of Chicago. The new site is in the Terra Business Park, a unique location between three Chicago area Penske branches; Rockford, Elk Grove and West Chicago.

Penske’s facility is also 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 (ELDs, telematics, onboard cameras, etc.).

Officially opening for business on January 6, 2020, the East Dundee facility sits on 1.5 acres and is 13,083- square-feet with six truck maintenance bays. It is also conveniently located off I-90, a major thoroughfare.
