    Where do y'all park your trailers when home? I live in a residential area (for now) with a short drive and none of the storage rental places have 40' long spots. That's the last wrench in my plan to jump from tankers to hotshot.

    We eventually are going to move to a more rural location with land but for now I need a temporary solution.

    Thanks!

    I put mine at a rental storage lot. I am lucky as location is about 10 minutes from the house.

    Check the Truck Dealers in your area, when I was home I parked my entire tractor-trailer at a Freightliner dealer.

    I have a grocery store down the street from my house. I seen semis using it for their 34’s so decided I would too. I’ve left it sitting for weeks and haven’t gotten towed or anything.

    To add, the lot is in the back of the store, not the public parking lot.

    Anywhere there is RV storage should work.
