Elite Auto and Tire Inc./Elite Towing & Recovery, located at 1754 N Henderson Rd. in Freeport, is now the fourth U-Haul neighborhood dealer in the area, offering truck, trailer, and moving supply rentals. The business venture came about unexpectedly, as Matthew Jones, an area field manager with U-Haul, accidentally contacted Larry Tuell, president of Elite Auto and Tire, while trying to reach another tow company for assistance.
Jones’s mistaken phone call led to a conversation with Tuell about becoming a U-Haul vendor, which eventually evolved into Tuell becoming a dealer as well. Tuell saw the opportunity as a perfect fit for his business and a way to keep profits local. Elite Auto and Tire’s partnership with U-Haul provides residents of Freeport with another convenient option for their moving needs.
