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 sits on 8.62 acres and 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.”
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, enabling customers to utilize advanced onboard technology systems, including electronic logging devices (ELDs), telematics and onboard cameras.
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.
Penske currently employs over 50 associates at the new facility and is hiring locally and nationwide. For a list of open positions in the Ocala area and at other Penske locations across North America visit gopenske.com/careers for more information.
