      What We're Doing

Increasing Efficiencies and Accessibility for the Regional Market - Now Open!

With the recent acquisition of a 140,000 square-foot facility on Indianapolis’ east side, the opening of Kenworth of Indianapolis - East at 9704 E. 30th St. will ultimately increase long-term service capacity by 52 service bays and eight body shop bays. Along with a full parts warehouse, Palmer Trucks will be able to serve the Crossroads of America with expanded capacity and increased efficiencies. Kenworth of Indianapolis - East is now open to serve you!




Creating Opportunity through Training and Education 

Alongside the new Kenworth of Indianapolis - East, Palmer Trucks will be developing a training and education center to help bridge Indiana’s skills gap and provide opportunity to hardworking and eager-to-learn career seekers. Palmer Trucks values developing its people, and in the spirit of doing so, is excited to take this endeavor to the next level to support Hoosier communities. 





Maintaining Kenworth of Indianapolis - West

A fixture on Holt Road since 1971, Kenworth of Indianapolis - West will continue to offer excellent service and accessibility for the city’s southwest side. Located at the Crossroads of America, two Indianapolis locations will provide more accessible truck parts, sales and repair. Palmer Power & Truck Equipment, the company’s hydraulic power and equipment division for vocational work trucks, is now open alongside Kenworth of Indianapolis - West at 2929 S. Holt Road!




Increasing Vocational Work Truck Capacity

To increase vocational work truck capacity and efficiencies, Palmer Power & Truck Equipment, Palmer’s hydraulic power and equipment division, has relocated to the upgraded Holt Road facility. The Palmer Power team is excited for the opportunity to provide Beau-Roc dump beds, patented municipal bodies, snow and ice equipment, and other staples customers have come to know and love.
