    Got a delivery on long island Wednesday mourning in Hauppauge, like to park up as close as possible. Google maps shows trucks parking up at the rest area at exit 51, and shows a spot called 495 truck parking around exit 53, with recent ratings saying that there is truck parking there but usually fills fast. street view shows it looks to be a county or city road maintenance facility.

    I'm pretty sure you should never stay on Long Island for more than your delivery. Fills up fast means 2pm.

    Ah the joys of LI...

    I wish I could help you. I never felt welcome on the Island east of the City because everyone pretty much banned parking of semis. And yet they depend on us for everything.

    This is my only other hope. Seems this is a new addition in the past year or so. Reviews say it's a new station with truck parking, and portajohn for overnight drivers. Screenshot_20171204-123107.jpg
