    I need to find a secure lot to park my tractor and trailer during home time. Anybody using or know of a secure lot in Tally? I will be getting my truck in a few weeks and don't have space at my home.

    Is there truck stops around there.If so ask them about parking your rig there.Also purchase glad hand locks and padlock.Maybe if your company has a customer located in Tallahassee,they would let you park it there.

    My hubby says he doesn't know of a "secure" parking area for semi's, but suggests a storage yard for RV's. Those you should be able to find in the yellow pages or calling some of the "mini-storage" places. Be secure if a little tight. Try asking one of the logging companies in the area if you can park in their yard. Might not be as "secure", but ppl are comming and going at all hrs.

    Either put up a curtian or remove obviously valuable items like your CB or TV.

    I will check on that. Walmart is a customer and about 5 miles away. I was hoping to drop my car at the lot too so it will be there when I return. Thanks for the response. I'll check this out.
