Purchased from Sullivan Tire and Auto Service Company, the facility boasts high ceilings, ample parking and an abundance of flat yard space.  Jumbo and Rhino partnered to secure the former tire company headquarters for $5.45 million.  The team plans to immediately make significant upgrades to the facility in this popular business corridor.
