    A mailing drop point. If you get something sent to a locker then Amazon will put you package in there for you to retrieve later. Think of it as a p.o. box for Amazon orders.

    I guess others answered it for me.:)
    Idea is you could have items shipped there from Amazon.
    Which of course would be great for OTR Guys,if the lockers are conveniently located. o_O


    I used the Locker once while OTR.. I parked at an old store and walked a couple blocks DFW area.
    Another time I tried but Amazon botched the delivery.

    Do they put you in locker and then wait for Amazon driver? Or do they put packages you ordered from Amazon in locker? How big a locker is this? How many drivers at same truckstop are using same locker? I stay at T/A in Ontario almost weekly and have never seen box you claim is across road at Petro.
    Since I've also spent time at Petro next door, I do not understand how I've missed this.
    But I may not be the most observant person when it comes to random things like this. I once walked pass John Travolta and Clyde Drexler standing within 20 feet of each other at Houston restaurant and didn't recognize either one.
    This happened around the year 2000 and my wife had to point them out to me, I instantly recognized both once they were pointed out to me.

    I am not making any claims, it is actually there. Here it is on the Amazon website. (attached pic/Screenshot)
    If you stay at the TA you will miss it because that's not where it is...

    If you've been at the Petro recently and missed it maybe you should have your eyes checked or just be a little bit more observant because you can't miss the #### thing.
