Time Limit Truck Stops

I usually plan my trip ahead so that I could AVOID these places at all costs. What it comes down to is the rules of the private property. Sounded like some gas station with a few spaces for truck parking. If you're trying to get an 8 to 10 hour sleeper break in, then things become very complicated.

So, yeah. Avoid places with time limits. You can always ask to stay overnight, but I really never ran into nice people in the northeast US anyway. (New Jersey is the worst for me.)

Ask the manager very nicely, but only if he makes a big deal out of it.

 

Actually I know exactly where he is and you could call it a gas station.He is at the Pilot off exit 6 0n I-84.No they do not enforce that rule,from the info I got from a local the township required that sign to be posted due to the limited parking there.As long as you are in a legal parking spot and are not over idling they won't even blink an eye if you stay for a weekend.I've stayed there quite a few times myself.

 

Most truckstops that have those signs dont enforce it. theres a pilot somewhere near chesapeake VA that has big signs saying 4 hour parking only...by local ordinance. Pilot doesnt give a ####.

Ive taken 10 hour breaks at quite a few 8 hour, 2 hour time limit, "no overnight parking" restareas..

 

I took my 10 at that very pilot in Newburgh just last week.

 

I've stayed at places with posted time limits a couple of times. Both times I asked inside and they said it was OK. Never hurts to check and I figured it was better to find out right away vs. a rude awakening

 

You talking the one at Providence Forge?

 

I'm not sure where it is. It's very near Chesapeake, thats all I remember, and I haven't been across the tunnel in 3 months..

 

That isn't providence forge then. Didn't even know one was in the bay area.
