    The closest truck stop is the Smyrna Pilot, exit 16 off of I-285. But that's a small one and finding parking at night is almost impossible.

    North of you in Cartersville is two big truckstops at exit 296 but that's probably 25 miles from you. In Marietta?? Is there an industrial park there? Usually you find a side street to park on.

    That area is kinda slim on the truckstops. If he is coming from the north, the best bet would be to stop at the J in Resaca.

    Otherwise, there is an industrial park in Kennesaw that he could probably park on the street. Google Cobb Industrial Parkway NW. It's right off US-41
