Facility Overview
Perdue\'s Striping Inc. is situated at 10216 Hickory Road in Tremont, Illinois (Tazewell County), serving as the operational headquarters and commercial staging base for one of Central Illinois\' recognized pavement marking, parking lot maintenance, and surface striping contractors. The property features an open-air, level surface lot with direct rural roadway ingress. Designed and maintained by pavement specialists, the surface layout accommodates a versatile range of vehicle profiles, including passenger sedans, heavy-duty pickup trucks, commercial work vans, and utility trailers. Because this is an open-air ground-level facility without low-hanging structural decks, there are no overhead vertical clearance restrictions, making it easily navigable for high-clearance utility vehicles, box trucks, and equipment haulers.
Prime Location & Nearby Attractions
Located in the countryside just outside downtown Tremont, the facility lies in close proximity to the heart of the village and major Central Illinois transport arteries. Tremont is widely celebrated for the annual Tremont Turkey Festival, the scenic Cullinan Park, and its historic downtown district along Route 9, all located roughly 5 to 7 minutes away by car. The site is also strategically situated between Peoria (approximately 20 miles northwest), Pekin (12 miles west), and Bloomington-Normal (roughly 30 miles east). Surrounding agricultural operations, local industrial hubs, and community landmarks like the Tremont Community Center, local schools, and rural recreational trails are easily reached within minutes.
Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity
Ingress and egress are straightforward via Hickory Road, a low-density rural thoroughfare offering excellent sightlines and minimal congestion compared to congested urban corridors. Hickory Road connects directly to Illinois Route 9 (IL-9) and Interstate 155 (I-155), granting rapid north-south regional connectivity to Interstate 74 (I-74) and Interstate 55 (I-55). Traffic flow around the facility remains steady and smooth throughout all hours of the day, allowing fleet vehicles and visitors to depart without event-driven bottlenecks. While rural Tazewell County lacks scheduled fixed-route municipal rail or rapid transit, regional on-demand transit services such as We Care, Inc. transit provide paratransit and non-emergency transportation throughout the county.

Visitor & Driver Tips
When traveling along Hickory Road, exercise caution during early morning and late afternoon hours, as rural Central Illinois roadways often experience slow-moving agricultural machinery and occasional wildlife crossings. Adverse winter weather, including heavy snowdrifts and surface icing, can affect rural secondary roads; drivers are encouraged to reduce speeds and confirm ground conditions during seasonal storms. Commercial drivers hauling long trailers should approach via main connecting routes from Route 9 to ensure wide turning radiuses when entering the property driveway.
