Platteville Students Frequent Pioneer Lanes for Bowling, U-Haul Rentals

PLATTEVILLE, Wis., March 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Pioneer Lanes provides University of Wisconsin-Platteville students a place to gather with friends and bowl some frames when it's time to put down the textbooks.

Now Pioneer Lanes is the place to go when it's time to box up those textbooks at the end of the semester.

Owner Frank Borowitz and general manager Joe Haack have partnered with U-Haul to handle the moving needs of Pioneer Lanes customers and the Platteville community.

Pioneer Lanes, located 2.5 miles from the university at 1185 Business Hwy. 151, has enjoyed a significant bump in business since the arrival of U-Haul® trucks, trailers and towing equipment, rental support items and boxes.

Pick up U-Haul products at Pioneer Lanes seven days a week and take advantage of their after-hours drop-off by visiting http://www.uhaul.com/Locations/Truck-Rentals-near-Platteville-WI or calling (608) 348-3133 today. Hours of operations are 9 a.m.-11:45 p.m. Monday-Saturday and 10 a.m.-11:45 p.m. Sunday.

Borowitz and Haack already targeted the college crowd with the bowling alley, Pioneer Banquet Center and Big M. Storage. Many of Big M. Storage's 200 units are used by university students.

It made perfect sense for Borowitz and Haack to offer transportation to their customers shipping items to and from the storage facility, as well as those moving in or out of university housing.

"During Thanksgiving break, there were so many kids moving their stuff back to mom and dad's (house)," Haack said.

The Pioneer Banquet Center has seen its share of business, too. Haack said they host fundraising banquets for the Wisconsin Badger Camp, which provides people with developmental disabilities an outdoor experience such as camping.

Haack has lived in Wisconsin for 42 years and remains involved in his community. He moved to Platteville in 2012 and has been welcomed with open arms.

Pioneer Lanes is a great place to become U-Haul Famous. Take a picture in front of a U-Haul product, send it in and your face could land on the side of a U-Haul truck. Upload your photo through Instagram using #uhaulfamous, or go to www.uhaulfamous.com to submit photos and learn more.
