Porter’s also offers a convenient “pay at the gate” option for those who only need yard items. This system allows the customer to pull into the yard and preload with the help of yard personnel then stop and pay for merchandise on the way out the gate. Porter’s employees are some of the most experienced in the area. They are dedicated to helping customers find the answers to finish a project the right way. Porter’s prides itself on service and experience. The company’s slogan — “We’re here to help” — sums it up.

River Cities Community Credit Union was established in 1958 as McCormick Midwest Employees Credit Union for employees of Midwest Solvents and McCormick Distilling Company. Today they are two of the nine sponsor employee groups that are a part of RCCCU. Membership is offered to anyone who lives, works, worships or is a member of an organization in the counties of Atchison, Brown, Doniphan, Jackson, Jefferson and Leavenworth. Once established, membership continues even though that credit union member would not be eligible for new membership. RCCCU in Atchison, Kan., vests its interest in improving the financial interest and wellbeing of our members not only in the present but in the future. RCCCU strives to provide the best service and financial security while also providing a stable and consistent financial performance.
In 2010, RCCCU was awarded the “StandOut CU of the Year” and our manager was awarded “Employee of the Year” by the NE Chapter of the Kansas Credit Union Association. We offer several different products and services, including savings, low-cost loans, payroll deductions, loan protection insurance, notary service and discounted tickets for amusement parks. Unlike other financial institutions, credit unions are owned and run by their members. Your savings will grow faster and loan rates are usually more reasonable. Members are what make us special.
