Sidney, Nebraska is one of those as well. -
The Walmart in Villa Rica, GA (exit 24 off I-20) is trucker friendly. I often see tractor-trailers parked there, off to the side, by the mulch and landscaping, materials. It is odd though, because if they just drove another 5 miles to exit 19 there is a Pilot and a Flying J within 1/4 mile of the exit.

they finally got tired of having to pick up the bottles of urine and trash after the trucks left in the morning. i would just like to thank the lazy B@$#%&!s who couldn't walk their waste and urine filled bottles to one of the many trash cans on the property. they probably could've used the exercise.
KingOfHibernia Thanks this. -
yup, stayed there. it's alot cheaper to eat stuff from walmart than the flying hook or pilot. better for ya too.

yeah i was born in dayton and agree the whole town is like that my uncle the ticket man was ran out and there are very few places in town i would park and that would b down on braumbaugh blvd where my grandparents house was and thankfully i know the neighbors and they would not have any problems with it....also the walmart in denver co. at 270 and vasques has devoted parking to trucks

Wal-mart up the road from us is a stark contrast to the one we use to live near. The stores are with in 10 miles or less of each other. The first store adopted the no truck policy for whatever reason. Trucks used to be able to park there overnight or longer if driver home in the area. There are NO truckstops near us, closest is at least an hour and half southeast from home. When we moved, less than 20 miles from the old house, looked for new place to park. Most of the neighborhoods around here prohibit commercial trucks of any kind, even the Frito Lay van. We found we we close to a Walmart, big strip center by and in front of it. Noticed a number of trucks parking there. There is a lot just for the trucks to park in and not be bothered. It's almost always full and does take a bit of skill to get properly parked. As long as it is kept clean and all, we're welcomed. Just goes to show you the difference btwn the individual stores and their attitudes. Guess we are dang lucky.

I'm always amazed at trucks that want to park at Wal-Mart. Do any of them park around back, out of site? No, of course not. They gotta park right there in the front lot. How about the W/M in Winslow,Az right next door to a truck stop. Do they park at the truck stop and walk over to W/M? No, afraid not. Do trucks know that there are different layers of asphalt in parking lots? Most lots are only layered for 4 wheeler traffic, not 80,000 lbs.

I just stopped at the Mt Pleasant Wal Mart off 34 in Iowa. Spent $400 on a camera (new toy!) and asked the girl what their policy on trucks was since I noticed quite a few in the parking lot but considerably more no parking signs. She said that they didn't mind but the local police had decided to ticket any trucks in the lot. Didn't seem to be a truck friendly town so down the road I went.
