Some of these Walmart store lots are not designed for the heavy truck traffic or parking. Some places are not for trucks to park overnight or otherwise because they don't fit to the local landscaping or social mood.
If the local community don't want it, that's their prerogative too.
I don't want any view or sound of a semi truck parked in front of my house either, for instance.
I am a hypocrite, because, I sure would not mind to park mine there from time to time but I know my neighbors would. So you have to respect that.D.Tibbitt, 88228822, Rideandrepair and 1 other person Thank this. -
the main control box on the front then if you monitor it then you've done your job. You can only be expected to use what the company supplies you with for equipment. If they don't provide a secondary back up then any service failure outside of what you have to use cannot be blamed on you.TokyoJoe and Farmerbob1 Thank this. -
If one cannot look at the satellite image of the Walmart and determine how to get in, park, and get out, one should not be accessing that particular location in my opinion.
I do most of my shopping at Walmart and at least half of them have messed up landscaping and downed signs from truckers who didn't plan properly.D.Tibbitt, JonJon78, Farmerbob1 and 3 others Thank this. -
Some areas in the country, I don't even bother trying.Wasted Thyme and 88228822 Thank this. -

I always start by using the trucker path app. Check the reviews and also look to see if it's notated on the app if they have truck parking or not. If it's a Wal-Mart I'm not familiar with then i call and discuss it with management to make sure what their parking policy is and also to find out where they prefer for me to park on their property. If they say no then i just look farther down the road. I also look at the google map pictures. It's all about planning an doing one's homework i guess.

Also I'm definitely not gonna start griping and or complaining cuz of any Wal-Mart stores that perhaps may not allow me to park on THEIR property. I know that some do but there are some that don't for various reasons. Sometimes it's due to local ordinances and sometimes it's due to space constraints and sometimes it's cuz others have trashed the place and ruined for those of us that don't leave our trash or bathroom waste behind or us that don't damage THEIR property. So yea also i don't figure Wal-Mart owes me a parking spot. I'll find one where i can park an do my best to respect that particular Wal-Mart's property.

I agree however I spent over $7500 at Walmart in a year (probably close to $10k) so I would assume that they want me to continue shopping there when I am on the road.
