Purcell Tire & Service in Fairbanks, AK

Purcell Tire & Service runs a commercial tire and service center at 3815 S. Cushman St in Fairbanks, open Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM. It covers trucks, trailers and fleet equipment across the Interior, with 24-hour roadside assistance outside those hours.

Working at the end of the road

Fairbanks is the furthest north Purcell operates, and the practical consequence is supply. Getting a tire that is not already in Alaska is a long wait, which is why the store carries seven tire categories and why the Wasilla distribution location exists further south.

For a fleet running the Interior, that changes how you plan. A tire size you depend on is worth confirming with the store before you need it, and a casing worth keeping is worth protecting, because the replacement is not an afternoon away.

The store closes at 4:30 PM, half an hour earlier than Anchorage. Roadside assistance covers commercial units outside store hours.

Services

What the Fairbanks store does

Five services, all of them aimed at vehicles that work.

Who this store serves

Roadside assistance, fleet services and heavy-duty alignment, with no vehicle repair attached, is the profile of a store built around operators rather than drivers: freight moving on the Interior highways, construction and utility fleets, and businesses running pickups and vans that cannot sit waiting. Adding car and light truck alignment and balancing means the crew truck gets looked after alongside the heavy units.

Questions

Questions about the Fairbanks store

What are the Fairbanks store's hours?

Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, closed at weekends. 24-hour roadside assistance covers commercial units outside those hours.

What do I do if a truck goes down after hours?

Call (907) 479-3399 and ask for roadside assistance. Have the unit's location, the tire size and position, whether it is loaded, and a number that stays reachable. The tire size is what decides whether the right tire arrives on the first trip.

Does the Fairbanks store do brakes or oil changes?

No. Fairbanks is a commercial location, so it handles tire and alignment work rather than general vehicle repair. Car and light truck alignment and tire balancing are available.

Can I get a tire size ordered in?

Call and ask. Alaska sits at the end of a long supply line, which is why confirming a size you depend on before you need it is worth the phone call. Stock is also held at the Wasilla distribution location.

Does Fairbanks retread tires?

No Alaska location lists retreading. Purcell runs seven plants, and the nearest to Alaska is in Portland, Oregon. Ask the store how casings are handled for your account.
