    If you live that close to Cartersville, my guess would be they would make you park it at the terminal. Most of us that take the truck home do so because we live hours from a terminal.

    If I had to leave at terminal I guess would be fine. With leaving personal vehicle at terminal to drive the rig do these terminals have somewhere to park motorcycles with out having to worry about damage or theft.

    If you're close you could just run over there and ask about it.

    So, how do you plan to take all the things you will need in the truck back and forth on a bike? You might want to think that though a little more.

    I can fit everything I need with me on my bike. It has plenty of storage and what wont fit in saddle bags I'll put in a duffle bag. I am new to trucking never trucked in my life what things will I need. I'm thinking personal hygene , clothes for a couple of weeks, and what food i'll eat while on the road which I figure i'll still have to stop at a grocery store when needed. but please let me know if there is more to it that that.
