    But see you missed the point.... Look at almost every where truckers park and like I said its not just the Truckers but a big part of the trash belongs to them. The Cities Gov is sick of picking up Their trash so it puts the rest of us in a bad spot when its late at night and there is not a place to park because there is not enough Truckstops. Do they live like this at home ? I don't think so lol if I lived like this at home my family and neighbors would raise hell with me.
    Its the same with Private Land Owners, Alot of them use to let people hunt and fish on their land , and a bunch of people went out and trashed their places up and now they dont let anyone come on their place either. Help Stop The Trash

    there are lots of them that do let you still. i have run into places that it is a "city ordanance" or due to lack of space and yes there are some that the store is just ungreatful to drivers (sometimes thats due to a bad trucker maybeing hitting something before in thier lot)

    ive seen alot of nasty drivers out there and im sure they live like that at home too lol. i treat my truck like my home and that means its organized and before i hit the bed, you should be able to eat off the floor. the only thing on my dash is ....nothing. theres a small trash can for a reasone and when its emptied at every stop reguardless if its full. Yes i am anal, but im clean and not wasting time finding what i need. its just disrespectful to leave your trash anywhere other than in a dumpster or can. that just shows what type of ppl they are.

    it's not just Wal-Marts, Colo. may close the truck parking on EB I-70 just before the top of Genesse because of the trash, piss bottles, etc. that drivers leave behind.

    Not a fan of Walmart but why is it their problem you are out of hours Drivers need to do a little trip planning and if the closest safe place to park is 50 miles from your drop then so be it get your butt up and go deliver

    walmart used to be real nice about overnight parking. however there are a few scumbag drivers who dont know how to use a trash can. therefore they once again have ruined something for all drivers. i dont blame walmart though if i owned the parking lot i would do the same

    i say the same thing, proper trip plan...but i have had many cases where I FINALLY leave the shipper or recvr that is BFE and dont have time to get anywhere and the s/r didnt allow parking there. you would thing that there would be more truck parking areas thru the US since if it wasnt for us, noone would get their product!
