Keokuk’s Rairco Car Rental Expands Fleet with U-Haul Dealership
KEOKUK, IOWA (April 13, 2015) – Paul and Denise Rairden have been renting their ever-growing supply of cars and vans for three years at Rairco Car Rental. The couple is constantly adding to the fleet but hadn’t offered rental trucks until recently.
When a nearby U-Haul® neighborhood dealer closed, the Rairdens jumped at the opportunity to partner with the industry leader in do-it-yourself moving and self-storage.
Along with the U-Haul trucks, Rairco Car Rental offers trailers, towing equipment, support rental items, in-store pickup for boxes and after-hours drop-off. Reserve U-Haul items here by visiting http://www.uhaul.com/Locations/Truck-Rentals-near-Keokuk-IA or calling (319) 313-5233 today.
Rairco Car Rental at 25 N. 16th St. is located just off Highway 218 with easy access to bridges leading to Missouri and Illinois. Hours of operation are 9 a.m.-4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday and 9 a.m.-noon Saturday.
A prime location has brought Rairco Car Rental everything from cross-country U-Haul renters to local businesses needing to transport a large item in town.
Rairco Car Rental is less than 30 miles from the new OCI Iowa Fertilizer® plant in Wever, so the Rairdens have seen U-Haul trucks and trailers departing for the quick drive up Highway 61.
“They’ve already been bringing in thousands of employees just to build it,” Denise said. “People are moving in temporarily so they use the U-Haul trucks rather frequently.”
When the Rairdens aren’t working, they enjoy time at home. Paul has been in law enforcement for 25 years.
“He always has some project he’s working on,” Denise said. “His dad owns a salvage yard, so he’s always working on and detailing cars.”
U-Haul and Rairco Car Rental are striving to benefit the environment through sustainability initiatives. Truck sharing is a core U-Haul sustainability business practice that allows individuals to access a fleet of trucks that is larger than what they could access on an individual basis.
Every U-Haul truck placed in a community helps keep 19 personally owned large-capacity vehicles, pickups, SUVs and vans off the road. Fewer vehicles means less traffic congestion, less pollution, less fuel burned and cleaner air.
Rairco Car Rental is a great place to become U-Haul Famous. Take your picture in front of a U-Haul product and your face could land on the side of a U-Haul truck. Upload your photo through Instagram using #uhaulfamous, or go to www.uhaulfamous.com to submit your photos and learn more.
