PSC in Joliet Increases Its Capacity with New Building
Houston, TX – (Trailer Technician) – PSC of Joliet, IL, recently moved into a brand-new state-of-the-art repair facility one mile east of I-55 on US Route 6 at Exit #248. The 31,647-square-foot building includes 16 service bays, a 10-ton bridge crane, an air- conditioned shop, a 2,200-square-foot full fabrication area, and power doors, as well as a second floor office area and lunchroom. The 6,000-square-foot warehouse that is part of the facility houses the $1 million-plus inventory.
“The new location represents a significant increase in size and capabilities from the previous location,” said PSC President Jerry Cignarella. “Combined with the space for future expansion, the new facility underscores our company’s ongoing growth as well as the increased demand for our services.”
PSC Joliet entered the area in May 2001 with the opening of a two-bay shop, subsequently increasing its capacity to five bays in 2003, before expanding to an 11-bay facility in 2005, where the company remained until its most recent move in December 2021. The new facility increased the number of personnel to more than 30 team members, and includes 18 technicians, four parts sales personnel and three parts delivery drivers.
“With this move and increase in personnel, we will be better able to meet the needs of our customers,” said General Manager John Marsh. “Since we entered the area 20 years ago, we have watched our company grow consistently as market needs expanded. We’re excited about this latest transition and look forward to continuing to satisfy the requirements of the tank trailer and tank truck industry.”
