    Ride a bus get a rental car or drive down depending on what they'll pay for

    Parking you need to find a truckstop or secure lot you can park it at

    What is the name of the trucking co. and where are they located in Indiana?
    If it is not very far from Chicago you my be able to drive your car back and forth if you do not have a place to park the truck.

    You need to have your truck in a safe place while you're on home time. A safe place could be your driveway, a truck stop, the terminal yard, a storage lot, an abandoned shopping center. A safe place is wherever it won't be bothered. So, that means possibly getting a ride from the terminal to the house. Whatever you do, don't advertise that you are leaving your truck unattended, as in wifey/hubby driving up in your car and you getting off the truck with suitcase in hand and driving off the lot.
