About Us at Central Carolina Diesel Repair

Our shop in Burlington, NC, is the product of years of hands-on experience in trucking, fleet management, and diesel mechanics. Founded in 2019 by Kenneth Young, our business grew from the ground up, built on the same work ethic and dedication that drives the trucking industry itself.

Kenny’s journey started at Lincoln Tech, where he trained as a diesel mechanic. After working as a fleet manager, he made the leap to trucking—buying his own truck and getting serious about the business. As trucking took off, so did the need for reliable repairs. Originally, the shop was just for his own fleet, but when it came time for change, he pivoted from trucking to full-time diesel repair.

We've been committed since day one, growing our team and expanding our services. We understand that trucking isn’t just a job—it’s a way of life, and breakdowns can cost valuable time and money. That’s why we pride ourselves on quick turnaround times, high-quality service, and a customer-first approach. With a background in fleet management, Kenny knows the pressure fleet owners and drivers face. He speaks their language, understands their challenges, and provides the kind of service he would expect for his own trucks.

As a small business, we believe in working closely with both our employees and customers. Our team benefits from hands-on training, including first-person guidance, ensuring every technician delivers top-tier service. We offer flexibility to our customers because we know that truck repair doesn’t always fit a 9-to-5 schedule.

At Central Carolina Diesel Repair, we don’t just fix trucks—we build relationships, keep fleets rolling, and help truckers stay on the road. Whether you're an owner-operator or managing a fleet, we’re here to keep your business moving forward. Come see why truckers trust us for their diesel repair needs.
