Commenting on the move, Eddie Lund, VP Sales & Branch Operations, said: "This new warehouse allows us to provide better customer service, be more diverse with our products, and allows us to grow. We are excited about the expansion and the opportunities that are now available to TransKool. We also want to thank our current customers who trusted us from the beginning and have made this possible."

With our new facility we meet these goals and we also almost doubled the number of dock doors adding further efficiency."
