    Live in Green, Ohio and wondering where if any is a good place to park truck. Called a few plaza's and didn't have luck. Stopped into a couple places that look like they offer truck parking and no luck. Lost at what to do. Right now my is husband parking by Cleveland at a former job but we dont trust his truck or car there

    I've read alot about ppl getting into trouble for parking overnight at walmarts. So I was worried about him getting towed or ticketed for doing his 34 hours there

    Why not? A truck sitting in a truck stop parking lot won't draw any attention like it would at a wal Mart, etc. He could always check at the fuel desk if he's paranoid but I'd guess it won't be a problem. Just pull the curtains to give the appearance of a sleeping driver.

    You're welcome. I don't know of any truck stops that have a parking time limit. Where do you think us road warriors park for a 34 while away from home? =)
    Like I said, just have him pull the curtains. Some guys take it a step further and walk into the truck stop like they're going in for a shower or laundry, walk thru the truck stop and meet their ride on the 4 wheeler side.

    34 restart at TA is fine if you don't drop the trailer. The next thing to do is search for truck friendly lots near an industrial area closer to the house.
