Henderson, Kentucky
The Purcell store at 1029 N Green St in Henderson runs sixteen services covering trucks, trailers, fleets and everyday vehicles, with all nine tire categories in stock. It opens at 7:30 AM.
Henderson sits on the Ohio River at the top of Purcell's Kentucky territory, which puts it on the route for freight crossing between Kentucky and Indiana as well as in reach of the farms around it.
All five Purcell locations in Kentucky work on cars, which is true of no other state. What distinguishes them is the commercial half, and Henderson has the full version of it: roadside, fleets, alignment on heavy units, OTR work and retreading.
Services
Most of the Kentucky stores open at 7:30 AM, and it is not an accident. A vehicle dropped before the working day starts is a vehicle back in service the same day, which matters more to a business than to a commuter.
If you are dropping a unit, say when you need it back when you book rather than when you arrive. The store can usually work to a deadline it knows about.
Henderson collects casings for the Purcell program. The retreading itself happens at a Purcell plant, the nearest being Potosi, Missouri or Cleveland, North Carolina.
For a fleet, the number worth knowing is what proportion of your casings currently passes inspection. If it is low, the cause is usually tires being run flat or damage left unrepaired rather than anything about the tires themselves. See retreading.
OTR services is the service on this list that most people do not expect to find at a store that also changes oil. It covers the tires under loaders, haul trucks and graders: fitting, change-outs, and repairs on tires worth saving.
On equipment that size, repair is frequently the right answer rather than replacement, and the decision is made by inspection rather than by looking at the outside. Alongside it, wheel refurbishing deals with the wheels those tires sit on, which take the same punishment and are usually repairable when they look finished.
If you are running machines rather than vehicles, say so when you call, because the conversation starts in a different place: the machine, the surface it works on, and what is failing.

Questions
Monday to Friday, 7:30 AM to 5:00 PM, closed at weekends. 24-hour roadside assistance covers commercial units outside those hours.
Yes. Henderson is a commercial and consumer store, so the fleet work and the car work happen at one address.
Yes, both are offered here. Doing them together is the only reliable way to tell which one was causing the tire wear.
At a Purcell plant rather than here. The store collects them and they come back ready to run, so you deal with Henderson rather than the plant.
