Palmer Trucks in Effingham, IL

Marvin Keller partners with several reliable maintenance vendors that help us out daily – one being Palmer Trucks in Effingham, IL. The partnership between Marvin Keller and Palmer Trucks began in 2021 when we acquired our first Kenworth Trucks.

From the start, Palmers has consistently provided excellent and timely service. They deliver parts to the MK Shop first thing in the morning and promptly respond to any inquiries. Whenever one of our Kenworth trucks needs a repair, they always do their best to get us in & out quickly.

Recently, we showed our appreciation to Palmer Trucks by treating them to lunch. This led to a productive discussion about the great service they provide. Marvin Keller values strong relationships like this and recognizes the importance of collaboration with reliable vendors like Palmer Trucks.
