On Wednesday, May 15, Brickners Park City showcased the fruits of their latest expansion effort with the opening of the dealership’s new 3,800 square foot auto detailing facility located at 2602 East Main Street, directly north of One Way Collision.
In addition to detailing services, the new facility also offers spray-on bedliners for pickup trucks as well as auto armor rust proofing and undercoating. The facility consists of 8 vehicle bays with same day service, servicing vehicles of all makes and models. Free estimates and loaner vehicles are also available. As owner Jim Brickner explains, the expansion has freed up much needed space at their 3000 East Main Street location.
“Our new facility has freed up much needed shop space for our service technicians at our main location. Despite two past expansions in 2010 and 2015, we were just running out of room for the two more technicians we will be adding this year.”
The expansion was made possible by joint acquisition of the once vacant property, with One Way Collision owners Jane and Bob Dehnel, in May of 2018. The Dehnels opened their newly constructed 12,000 square foot location last August, and now Brickner is excited to open up the dealership’s new facility.
“Acquisition of the property allowed One Way to build their new location and allowed us to not only park up to 50 used cars and our rental fleet vehicles, but also our new auto detailing and rust operation. Our investment with this project is not only in the expansion of our business, but our investment in the City of Merrill. We have called Merrill home for the last 31 years and we couldn’t be happier to be here.”
