Bolinders Keep Customers Content with U-Haul at Bridger Valley Propane
MOUNTAIN VIEW, WYO. (April 15, 2015) – Craig Bolinder opened Bridger Valley Propane in 1998 with one propane tank and one truck.
Seventeen years later, he and wife Nancy oversee the distribution of propane to the majority of residential and commercial businesses in the Mountain View area.
Propane isn’t the only necessity the Bolinders provide their community. Bridger Valley Propane at 650 N. Hwy. 414 offers U-Haul® trucks, towing equipment, support rental items, in-store pick-up for boxes and after-hours drop-off to its many customers.
Bridger Valley Propane is open 8 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday- Friday, 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Saturday. Reserve U-Haul products at this location by visiting http://www.uhaul.com/Locations/Truck-Rentals-near-Mountain-View-WY or calling (307) 782-7160 today.
U-Haul has been based out of Bridger Valley Propane for some time, but the Bolinders faced a decision when a close family friend who managed the U-Haul dealership died unexpectedly. The Bolinders opted to pick up the business, agreeing to become U-Haul dealers themselves.
“We wanted to keep it here,” Nancy said, adding that U-Haul continues to lure new customers to their town. “Meet the people who are moving in … we really like that. It’s a good boost for us.
“Happy-go-lucky people (live here), working hard to make a living. They are still appreciative that U-Haul is here.”
U-Haul, the industry leader in do-it-yourself moving and self-storage, and Bridger Valley Propane 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.
Bridger Valley Propane is a great place to become U-Haul Famous. Take your picture in front of a U-Haul product, send it in 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 photos and learn more.
