If I am not mistaken doesnt TMC require it be a secure parking place?

You're not going to find a place to park your rig.But there are places that you can park your trk.There are many truckstops not far from the twin cities.I think there is one off the 694 or 494.There are also one not far from Eagan,mn.Just buy a pocket size truck stop book.Many of them will let you drop your trl there.Just make sure to buy a glad hand lock and make sure TMC gives you the ok.TMC might have a drop yard around the cities you can park or one of their customers.

There's a TMC truck that parks close to where I park and I see it every weekend when I come home.

ok, thats one, is he there when you leave? if so , he may never leave, lol.
it all depends on where you live, but one thing i have learned in 33 years is trust no company to get ya home when they say. which is why i have truck and trl, and leased where i pick my own loads.
but frankly, if you are unmarried and no ties just live in the truck , kill time by polishing the truck, or just get a room, internet card and laptop and go to yahoo personals and meet women.
but then, i have been paying for a house for years and only live there a few days a month. its a real pain to do so. but there aint room for the wife, 5 kids, 2 dogs and 2 horses in the truck. -
or how bout find ya a big old minesota girl, charm her pants off, and live at her place when you are home. get one thats a nurse(they like to look after sick people) and tell her you have a rare disease called optical-rectalitis. thats where the nerves in your eyes and rectum grow together and give you a crappy outlook on life.
it is hard to cure and many victims wear sunglasses ( many police and dot have advanced stages of this disease) -
lol, I'm pretty sure it moves at some point as he doesn't always have the same load on. Of course we live in a pretty easy to get home every weekend place. (Northeast Indiana@US 30 and I-69) So that could be in his favor.

Storage units add up over time. Sell your junk and find a room mate wanted add or do the motel thing. You'll save tons of $$ instead of blowing it on rent.
Or buy a small shed for your stuff and find a friend or relative who'll let it sit on their property. An old camper you could put next to it and stay there too.
I paid over $3000 for a storage unit for mostly a bunch of old furniture for a few years. Would have been better off trashing the stuff right off the bat when I moved to TN.SHC Thanks this. -
Funny!! Funny!!
