Papé Kenworth–Medford has expanded its operation and relocated to Central Point, Ore., with convenient access to Interstate 5 off exit 33.

Papé Kenworth–Medford is part of a Kenworth dealer network of more than 325 locations in the United States and Canada. The new full-service facility is located at 4300 Hadley Drive, Suite 100, in Central Point.

The dealership’s 9,100-square-foot service department contains seven service bays and also offers a specialized service bay equipped with a jib crane. The service shop uses a 10-ton overhead crane running the entire length of the shop for major repairs. To provide excellent parts support, the facility has 1,250 square feet of parts display and 6,300 square feet of parts storage. A nearly 5,200-square-foot wash bay building also is on the site.

A drivers’ lounge offers a flat-screen TV and comfortable leather chairs. Other driver amenities include free showers, and free washers and dryers to help catch up on laundry.

“We are centrally located between Eugene, Ore., and Redding, Calif., along I-5, which is a key trucking corridor on the West Coast. We offer popular amenities for truckers as they wait for service to be completed by one of our six professional service technicians,” said Gary Neal, service manager.

Papé Kenworth is open from 7:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8 a.m. to noon Saturday. The phone number is 541-772-5211 or toll-free 1-800-344-5211. Key personnel are Paul Hildebrand, territory sales manager, and Joe White, parts manager.
