If you get on Craigslist under the Housing section there's a subsection for Parking/Storage. That might be your best bet if you wanted it secured. I know some RV storage lots in my area will rent you some space too. Or it might be worth going to your local industrial park and explaining your situation to a few businesses that have room, and say you're looking for a spot on your hometime. Some might let you park it around back for cheap, or not give a #### and just let you do it. Best of luck.

anywhere that wont get you ticketed towed etc. But seriously I FINALLY found a spot that is designated truck parking right by my house(super market) my advise....so look there near supermarkets industrial areas etc. You can and will find something in those areas because of zoning regs for your area. Good luck

I have a shop so maybe I'm out of touch, but why not park it at the truck stop? Pull in, buy fuel, park for your 34. Take off. There is no rule that says you have to attend the truck right?

Commercial street near my neighborhood. I park trailer on street with locks on the glad hands and lock on back . Bobtail to house 1 mile away . Light industrial or commercial areas normally work .

Renting a spot is a must if you live in a big city area, almost nowhere there is an overnight parking allowed, and it may cost too, depending where you live. I pay for my spot 250 a month. That's in North West part of Chicago area. But the closer to the city the "better" it gets Rents there went up in some places well over $300 - crazy.

It may work if you are on the road for at least a week at the time. Otherwise, truck stops near big cities could charge $15 - 20 a day. Besides, it may be some distance to get home too.
