KAUKAUNA — After nearly a year under construction, Kaukauna-based trucking company Midwest Carriers last week opened its new headquarters building.
Work began on the project last June on the 71,150 square-foot facility located on Buchanan Street in Kaukauna just off Highway 41.
“The new headquarters is the latest investment in our driver-focused culture and some amenities also benefit our logistics and support staff,” said President Eric Van Handel in a news release. “We designed the new space with our employees in mind and want them to feel a sense of pride and comfort in it.”
With three locations in the Fox Valley plus their affiliation with freight carrier Osborn Trucking (www.osborntrucking.com) in Fond du Lac, the company says it was time to bring everyone together into one building.
The new location offers 24/7 access to:
- Driver’s lounge, featuring a shower room, laundry, kitchenette, big screen TVs and quiet nap rooms.
- Covered truck wash bay that’s heated, allowing our drivers to get out of the elements to wash their truck and perform other preventative maintenance.
- Concrete parking with full lighting and cameras for safety.
