Skip the form. Our 24 hour road call team answers the phone and rolls a stocked service truck to your location.
We are a stocking parts dealer for three major networks, so the part that fixes your truck is usually already on our shelf.
Okolona is one of the closest stops on Superior's map, about 4 miles down KY 864, Fern Valley Road and Preston Highway from Bishop Lane. Plants and freight yards cluster here, and so do the road calls on I-65 and the Gene Snyder Freeway.
Okolona is boxed in by interstate. I-65, the Kentucky Turnpike, runs up its west side with five exits, and the Gene Snyder crosses the south end with three more. Preston Highway and Fern Valley Road carry the local freight between them.
Kentucky Turnpike
OpenStreetMap puts exits 125, 125-A, 125-B, 127 and 128 in the Okolona area. A tractor sitting dead near any of them is a short hop for a service truck coming off I-264 from Bishop Lane.
Gene Snyder Freeway, also KY 841
Exits 10A, 10B and 12 sit close together here. Tell dispatch which one you just passed, since three ramps within a couple of miles are easy to mix up on the phone.
Preston Highway
Preston Highway is the last leg of the service truck's route into Okolona. Yards and docks with a Preston Highway address are about as close to the shop as a mobile call gets.
Fern Valley Road
Fern Valley Road links the service route to Preston Highway, and the route to the Ford Louisville Assembly Plant ends on it as well.
Named Truck Stops
OpenStreetMap data. One truck stop in the area has no name on the map, so it is left off this list.
Okolona is practically next door to the shop. The route out of 3816 Bishop Lane is about 4 miles, around 10 minutes on KY 864, East Indian Trail, Fern Valley Road and Preston Highway, with no interstate needed. For a semi truck down in Okolona, the service truck doesn't have far to go.
OpenStreetMap names a long list of industrial sites here: GE Appliance Park, the Ford Louisville Assembly Plant, UPS Distribution, XPO Logistics, JB Hunt Transportation, American Tire Distributors and Caldwell Tanks among them. A tractor that won't pull away from a dock at any of them is a job for a mobile technician.
Plenty of Okolona calls come off the interstates instead. I-65 and the Gene Snyder both pass through, and between them there are eight numbered exits on the map. Blown air lines, flats and derates on those ramps get a roadside visit, and anything too big to fix on the shoulder gets brought back up Preston Highway to the shop.
Three named industrial sites near Okolona, listed after Okolona itself. Each one has its own route from Bishop Lane, and none of them runs longer than about 20 minutes.

Okolona carriers
Carriers and shippers around Fern Valley Road and Preston Highway can't afford a tractor parked at a door waiting on a repair. Superior puts a technician at your yard or dock door instead, and the shop sits about ten minutes up the road for the bigger jobs.
An Okolona fleet runs on
Service trucks roll to Okolona loading docks and trailer lots carrying the parts that PM service and plenty of common fixes call for. Tell dispatch the time that suits the shift, and the unit gets serviced without leaving the property.
Superior performs the yearly inspection that 49 CFR 396.17 calls for right in Okolona yards, or in our bays if a trailer is passing Bishop Lane anyway. Defects found on the checklist get repaired during the visit instead of on a return trip.
What Superior does for Okolona units
The highlighted county is Jefferson, where Okolona and the shop both sit. The rest of the twelve-county map is covered from that same spot on Bishop Lane, roughly ten minutes north of Preston Highway.
The trucks, trailers, service vehicles, roadside calls and shop work behind the services on this site. This is the kind of commercial equipment Superior works on every day in and around Louisville.
Short answers for carriers, owner-operators and dock managers near Okolona. Call dispatch for the rest, day or night.
(502) 789-6644Very close. Superior Truck & Trailer sits about 4 miles north at 3816 Bishop Lane, roughly 10 minutes away with clear roads. It's also the shop that sends mobile and roadside service techs to Okolona yards.
Yes. OpenStreetMap routes put GE Appliance Park about 13 minutes from the shop and the Ford Louisville Assembly Plant about 9. A technician drives out, finds your door and works on the tractor or trailer there.
Call (502) 789-6644. Dispatch runs 24 hours, and 24/7 Mobile & Roadside Assistance covers I-65 exits 125 through 128. Give the exit, northbound or southbound, and what the truck did before it quit.
Yes. The UPS Distribution site is about 20 minutes out, with I-65 and KY 1065 doing most of the work. Trailer brakes, lights, air systems and DOT Inspections can all be done in the yard.
Yes. Welding & Fabrication covers frame cracks, broken mounts and custom parts in steel, aluminum and stainless. Small repairs can happen on site, and big frame work comes to Bishop Lane.
Yes. Roughly 6 miles separate the two as the crow flies, and one shop serves both. See the Fern Creek page for its route up Bardstown Road.
The shop is about ten minutes from Preston Highway. Call with your exit or gate number and the trouble, and a technician gets rolling.
