WOULD YOU PARK HERE? SITE PLAN FEEDBACK NEEDED.

Oh, I got you. I wouldn't want to blind side either then, if I were you. That would be a pain to try getting out every few feet to adjust those mirrors. I was meaning some of the drivers I see sometimes that blind side and won't work their mirror. They'd rather make it more difficult on themselves I guess.

 

Yeah, it would. Then you'd have no blind spot parking. The middle row just wouldn't be a V shape anymore. Just looking at it, I would if I were gonna flip them, I would cut off the two end spots of that left side. Whatever you wanna charge for rent, divide those two spots you are losing among the rest of the spots that you are losing, and add that cost to the price of the remaining spots. That way you lose the spots, yeah, but you don't lose the revenue.

 

I'm really trying to help out OP before his/her/it's property gets destroyed...

Before you sink 200K trying to figure out how truck drivers park, go sit at the fuel island at Loves on I-35 in Wilmer TX, or the PF/J on I-20/35 at 7pm on a weeknight.

Truck drivers will destroy your property, period, just trying to park.

 

I see other truck parking lots in DFW. They all seem to be full, so it should be a money maker if you run a tight ship.

Guys won't just want to park their trucks there. They will want to use the space to park their car while they are out on the road. They will want to do mechanical work on their truck on your yard, with their car or a repair truck parked in front of their vehicle that blocks other vehicles trying to park. They will dump used motor oil and oil filters on your yard. They will leave garabage and human waste on your yard, use it as a toilet. They will bring their friends and families to picnic on your yard while they fiddle with their trucks. The gate password will be given to their friends. The cartels may use it as a transit point for their shipments.

Is it possibe to provide a 24 hour livestream so drivers (and the local police department) can monitor the yard in real time? And make it archived so they can go to certain dates and times to review footage of activities on the yard. And not grainy video. Use high definition cameras that can zero in on the smallest details. Most truckers are experts on surveillance/counter surveillance/security systems so they will appreciate this.

 

Shady tree line around the edges providing lots of space for the shade tree mechanics to do their thing.

 

Would I use this lot?

no.

first the surface is wrong, cement is the right way to do it.

second I don’t trust others, no live security. I used one lot to park trucks and had one truck canablized for parts.

third the location isn’t the best.

 

how wide and long are the spots?

more room makes easier parking, especially at night
