Non-Walmart grocery stores accessible by trucks

Check the suburban Publix in Florida...I have been able to get truck and trailer into them

 

It’s ridiculous to me how all these towns and cities and retail store chains and grocery stores and even now Walmart are doing everything they can to keep trucks away. Maybe we should all join together and send them a message. Do you want no trucks, you got it. But you also get nothing that comes on the back of those trucks. Lol if truck drivers every united in this country we could literally have anything we want.

They go out of their way to make our lives hell and harder than it already is being out on the road by limiting parking to almost nowhere. And then were these bad, dirty nasty truck drivers because we get desperate and try to park somewhere. On top of that they create laws that we can lose our careers if we drive over what they say we should drive trying to find a place to freaking stop the truck and park. It’s almost back ### backwards scenario I’ve ever heard of in my life.

 

Leakers in Park City, KS. Park along the curb and stay long enough to get your groceries.

I find most Krogers are old enough stores that they are easy to park next to or close by their loading dock.

 

When you swing back to reality be sure to chime in. If I owned a shopping center/grocery store/ANYTHING I wouldn't want trucks near it! You can't put up signs saying only drivers who know how to drive and don't toss out #### bags can park here. We've all seen what truckers do. I don't blame the property owners a bit.

Do I like it? Not really but as several have stated in this thread a little creativity goes a long way.

There is always a truck route in/out of a grocery store/box store. Find it, use it. Don't park there overnight. I park in the back, put the flashers on, do my business and get out of there. If it looks sketchy I go find a manager and say 'hey, i'm parked out back for a minute while I get my groceries.' Never had a problem.

What I've said doesn't work at 100% of places though, more like just 99%.

 

You know, I'm honestly surprised that the trucking industry hasn't been self-regulated by the drivers. What do I mean by that? Simple, buy a pack of disposable gloves and the next time you see a driver dropping a bag of feces or outright taking a dump on the parking lot; grab that feces and smear it over every part of the truck to make it impossible for the driver to do anything other than touch his own fecal matter with his bare hands. Smear that brown stuff all over door handles, fuel tank caps, any and all grab handles and grab bars, hood latches, trailer doors, etc...

Got urine bombs? Again, put on gloves and poor it into or all over the truck.

Don't want to deal with urine bombs or land mines? Get that washable water-based chalk paint that they put on cars, get it in a fluorescent pink or something or even a color that glows in the dark. You know the stuff that doesn't come off in the rain, but requires a bit of elbow grease to get it off. Write in big bold lettering on tractor and trailer some seriously embarrassing stuff! Embarrassment is the most effective form of punishment that's legal. Something simple such as "Ask me about my buttplug!" on both sides of truck and trailer as well as the trailer doors! I guarantee it will stop these people from behaving like trash.

It also will show anybody and everybody that a marked truck is bad news. Even if the driver(s) take it in stride, I doubt shippers and receivers want these marked trucks anywhere near them.
