Secured Truck Parking - National Chains

Lucky me... I too am looking for something similar when on home time... Not finding too many places yet around home and there are no Truck Stops around Charlotte either...

Looking forward to reading others experiences.

Thanks for the links too.

 

My company terminal is in City Trailer in OKC. I think the monthly rent is $140, not sure if they do short term or at once deals. Lots of fleets, like Love's, Coca-Cola, use it.

They have a guard shack, parts department with good deals, full shop, and a driver's terminal with shower and laundry (bring your own towel). The downside is parking is on a dirt lot.

 

LOL ... The Fleet Services site has a tab named "locales & pricing" and I see they have a yard in Charlotte but nothing in the pricing area... Sent them an email...

Probably too pricey for a driver to use for home time.

 

could check out storage units that have outdoor storage for boats an rvs, if it can fit a truck they would prob work somthin out

 

For just the truck that might work but with a trailer they would need a lot of open space.

 

Worth checking into though... Thanks.

 

i mentioned it because i used one near my home, there were only boats and rvs there but the owner showed me a spot and asked if i could get it in there, i coulve fit but i ended up parking outside the gate on the grass because i was just lookn for a temporary spot and didnt need it secured. i hesitated to ask but did, so ya never know.

 

What? I thought the Pilot in Charlotte was everybody's favorite? Where else can you get a front row seat to The Hidden Valley Kings?

I tried calling this one once when I was at one of their listed locations. They gave me a local number which I called and the person who answered said they only handle company or fleet parking and not individual drivers.

A lot of the time I will check Craigslist if I'm visiting relatives or taking extended time off somewhere. I have had some luck there. I parked once for a few days at a Utility trailer dealer for a reasonable fee. But only accessible during business hours.

I wish there was something like you say that was nationwide close to major metropolitan areas with easy access to public transportation or taxis. I have been using Uber a lot to get around different places. It is usually cheaper than a taxi and the car shows up on a map on your phone so you know how long it will take unlike taxis where you could be waiting forever or it doesn't even show up.
