    what would be an appropriate daily fee a truck could pay and would that amount be large enough to motivate the real estate owner?

    I can only go off of current paid parking. From what I've seen (and paid) it hovers around the 10-18$ range for one spot for the night.

    To many variables for a blanket number. Where in the country, how easy is to access, how many other parking options are available ect...

    Depends on the situation and needs. Truckers regularly pay anywhere from $50 to $175 month to have dependable and authorized parking that may or may not have secured access. But mainly it's location, location, location (truck accessible)

    Communities all across the nation are shutting down "common" truck parking locations every month, for a variety of reasons.

    Several sources tell drivers where truck stops & big box stores are at, but only Trucker Path, as far as I can tell, gives any indication if parking is available & how much. Finding parking & trying not to get lost going to a customer are big stresses.

    I use the DAT Trucker app to find hotels. It's free and exists.

    But there still is not an app that shows where pay phones are.

    Maybe something like Yelp specific to trucking. It would have a section to add reviews or info on truckstops including their restaurants and or businesses like grocery stores next to them.

    Maybe also a Yelp like section on customers we deliver to or pick up from. It could let people add info like the size, is there overnight parking, are they slow or quick to load or unload, or add info on nearby truck parking.
     
    Boattlebot and street beater Thank this.
