Family-Owned & Operated Since 1923

About Us

Freezer’s Auto Parts opened for business in 1923 as Freezer’s Garage. The business was opened by George W. Freezer III and his cousins Dick and Harry Freezer. Some time later George and his wife, Bertha, became the sole proprietors. Freezer’s was a gas station and an automobile repair shop, they also sold Star and Durant automobiles. George kept popular items like filters, belts, and oil in stock for his repair shop. As time went by his stock grew as locals, doing repairs themselves, would stop by and purchase parts he had on hand. Freezer’s Garage evolved into Freezer’s Auto Parts. In 1968 George W. Freezer IV and his wife Barbara took over the business. They operated it until their retirement in 1990. At that time, their four children George W., Charles, Pauline, and Mary Ann took ownership. Charlie’s son, Bradley, and Mary’s son, Ethan, also work at the store. Aside from Freezer family members, they currently have 5 other employees; Jeff Rishel, John Snyder; Jarret Whitmoyer; Rodney Fuller, and Landon Earnest.

We are third and fourth generation, family owned and operated. We are a place of business, family, and friends. The gossip, news, hunting stories, and friendly chatter can be heard at the counter every day, just as in years past. Some things do not change. We pride ourselves in being small town and old school. Personal service, knowledgeable employees, best possible prices, and satisfied customers are what is most important.

We, the Freezer family, must recognize our grandparents and parents. They worked very hard and dedicated their lives to the family business. We got to this 120th year because of the solid foundation they laid and built upon. Also, our brother/father/uncle, Charlie Freezer (the original “Milwaukee Man” around here) left us a very strong foundation of his own, and we are grateful.

We must also mention our employees, past and present. They have all contributed and helped in their own way. We appreciate each and every one of them for their individual support, friendship, and hard work.

We have truly been blessed with each other, great employees, a supportive community, and loyal customers. We are thankful for and to it all.
