call the store it self.lovesthedrive, Woodys, Suspect Zero and 1 other person Thank this.

Park and see if someone tells you to go away?
-
There is no easy way.
My RM GPS says some are ok, but there are signs that say no.
The best way is to speak with the manager when you get there.
If you are out of hours when you get there, you may be out of luck. And options.AfterShock and Suspect Zero Thank this. -
use google earth to see if it is actually accessible. if it is, drive in to see if they post any "no trucks" sign, if not, you are good
. but call in to ask is probably a better way

Call the store and ask for the manager on duty. If you park off to the side far from the store itself, you usually don't have a problem. But be aware that it seems more and more trucks aren't allowed to park, due to local ordinances.....even us fleet drivers.

Problem is, instead of just telling you to go away, they might boot your truck or put one of those ‘barnacles’ on it.
Now that Walmart has taking to leasing space over proprietary ownership, the property management company has taken up a policy against truck parking.tscottme Thanks this. -
If you use the app Trucke Path, it will show you walmart. Click on the walmart you want to know about and then click "reviews". The reviews almost always mention if parking overnight is ok and where to park or which way to enter the parking lot. It will also show the phone number for the store.
Be advised many cities are passing ordinances that prohibit overnight camping in town. You will be ticketed or not based on laws and store policy so you should talk to store employees to be sure. The people in the app or internet are not going to pay your ticket.PE_T Thanks this. -
Not matter where you park always carry a cordless or air powered grinder with a cut-off wheel.
You never know when you will need to remove a Boot or a Barnacle from your truck.singlescrewshaker and GreenPete359 Thank this. -
