BUILDING STRONGER COMMUNITIES TOGETHER
At TWO MEN AND A TRUCK, Giving back to the community is at the heart of what we do. We believe in giving back and making a positive impact in the communities we serve.
A Legacy of Giving
Since the inception of TWO MEN AND A TRUCK, our founder Mary Ellen Sheets thought it was important to give back. Dan and Rene Shunk, have continued that commitment to giving back to the community. When they started our franchise in Champaign, it became a priority to continue this tradition.
