A. Duie Pyle opens Northborough facility

A. Duie Pyle has announced the opening of its Northborough, MA service center. The facility, the company’s largest, features 121 doors for loading and unloading trailers, a truck and trailer maintenance shop, and an automatic drive-thru truckwash.

A proprietary Qualcomm satellite tracking system offers real-time communication between drivers, dispatchers and customers, and the site is remotely monitored 24/7 for fire and burglar protection.

The Northborough center is the first of two facilities scheduled to open in 2008, with a second in Johnston, RI scheduled for later in the year.
