Marcus/Allard Truck Rental in Northwest Indiana is the successor company to Marcus Auto Lease Corporation, a company that rented and leased vehicles from this Highland location since 1958. In 1995, Allard Truck Rental merged with Marcus Auto Lease to form our current company. Both of the former companies have long histories of serving the truck rental needs of the steel and petroleum industries in Northwest Indiana.
Our fleet is modern and clean inside and out. Three certified mechanics keep our trucks in top running condition. If your rental ever breaks down, we're on the spot fast with a replacement. From the initial contact to the final invoice, count on us for exceptional service. But we're not just about trucks; our community roots run deep. Years ago, the Marcus family donated land to the Humane Society Calumet Area. We continue to support this worthy cause and recently donated a van for the Humane Society's use. Marcus/Allard has also donated vehicles to Northwest Indiana Habitat for Humanity and the Hammond Food Bank.
We're also active and respected members of the Lakeshore Chamber of Commerce, Merrillville and Highland Chambers of Commerce, Trade Winds "Pirates" and the Hammond Rotary.

“In the 10 years I've been doing business with Marcus/Allard Truck Rental, they have always responded competitively to our fluctuating transportation needs. I've come to rely on their expertise and exemplary service.”

“We're a large mechanical contractor and we use the rentals we get from Marcus/Allard for the work we do inside refineries and mills. They often get dinged up. They understand whom they are renting to–we don't have to worry that we'll be overcharged for damage. Dave Allard pioneered this concept in Northwest Indiana. This, and the fact that their word is as good as gold, makes for a great working relationship.”
