    Anyone know a place close by to park without paying? I can park at the Petro in Bordentown NJ but would like to be closer.
    Quaker Valley doesn't allow overnight parking. (Even though they have plenty of room)

    If you set your GPS to 2179 Bennett rd this will be just up Roosevelt from red lion rd .
    Bennett is an industrial area and I see trucks parked on the street there all the time .
    However ....you can only get on Bennett coming the north going south on Roosevelt...it will be a right turn .
    It's not pretty and it's congested during the day .
    Other than that it's the market area around preferred freezers on South 3rd st off packer Ave.

    Yep come south from 276 on Roosevelt staying right all the way down to Bennett and go right .
    It's a trashy looking area but I've never had an issue there .
    When you leave you will only be able to go south on Roosevelt

    There is a Walmart about a mile south on the north bound side. I delivered there a few years ago and parked there. No one bothered me.

    I always see trucks parked at the Lincoln hotel off of US1 also I see a lot of truck parking around the dicks sporting goods in that area, not sure if it’s free.

    I've been to Bennett Road many times in Philadelphia. I've never parked there but I don't think anyone would ever give you a hard time back there it's only Industrial. Swing wide when you turn on Bennett the intersection is not extremely wide.

    When you go in you go down a little ways and on the left hand side you'll see a sign for I rice. The road is really bumpy they need to do some Paving there take your time but if you pull up into there I think you could park back there and nobody would bother you. There might even be trucks back there waiting for I rice to deliver in the morning.
