    Thanks. I am doing the same in Phoenix. Tuesday should be fun, that Ralphs drop, then Sysco in Walnut, followed finally by Ralphs in Compton.

    I don't remember there being street parking at Fry's. There are guys that park on the street at Ralph's but there are signs saying either no parking or two hour parking I can't remember which. There is a small truck stop down the road south on 215 at Cajalco/Ramona Expwy exit, believe it's an AM/PM. If you won't be there earlier in the day don't even bother trying for that, maybe 20 spaces total there. If you take Harley Knox Blvd east off 215 to north on Perris road there are some dirt turnouts out there you can park. There's one on the corner of Nadina and Perris across from Walgreens DC(construction there last time blocking it off, but that was 7 months ago) and one at San Michele and Perris. If you turn west down San Michele off Perris I believe there might have been one or two spots by Oreilly Auto Parts DC but I can't remember. Don't go north of San Michele as it's residential at that point. It's only about 10 minutes to Ralph's from over there. Riverside county in general is no parking on the streets so I wouldn't chance it in front of Ralph's. The turnouts aren't technically the street so dunno about the legality there but I've never personally had any problems there.

    There's actually some truck parking nearby Ralph's in Compton too if you'll get there early. If you go south on Wilmington from Ralph's then head east on Del Amo, turn south on Santa Fe for one block to turn right/west on to El Presido there is 72 hour truck parking on that street on both sides. Hardly anyone knows about it so there are always spots. I only found it when I took a wrong turn when I was local delivering to the area. I know it's less than three miles from Ralph's as my EOBR didn't kick me on to driving. Pack a lunch to Compton, Ralph's down there likes to take 20+ hours no matter how small the load is.

    when u take the exit for frye's just pull over in the sand & park there, u shouldn't be bothered; as far as ralph's u can pull against the curb & no one should bother u; it's been several years since i've been to both so i don't know if any changes have been made to this or if it's still the same; play a pot luck gamble

    Thanks for all the info guys. Riverside, Walnut and Compton are all the same day with Compton at 1800... I guess if its going to take 20 hrs I won't have to worry about parking Tue night, lol.

    You could get lucky, never know. I've only had one time there where I didn't get at least a 10 in the sleeper there though. Worst was 22 hours in a daycab.
