    Anyone ever loaded at this place and if so, do you know if there's a place to overnight?

    Check the Google map reviews for the customer or the address. That's how I got info before going to a new customer.

    Over night in Laredo? No... just say no...
    Head out up i35. Just past the border check point is a new truck stop. It’s 28 miles to the check point. You’ll see lotsa cops. Do it PC if you have to. It gives a deeper meaning to the term “Safe Haven”
    BTW Don’t trust any of the scales in Laredo. Cat will reimburse your ticket. It it will still stay on your record. Weigh away from Laredo. Far away.

    I’m not sure about TA? I don’t go there a lot. There are a couple drivers on here who live near Austin/San Antonio. They know Laredo well.

    Best (only) bet in Laredo is if your company has a terminal there.

    There is a Fuel America Travel Center on Interstate 35 northbound at the 32MM which is a good spot to park. So far I have not had any issues since it opened.

    There is also a Loves in Encinal at the 39MM.
     
    D.Tibbitt Thanks this.

    Mexus Inc - Google Maps

    Shows it is down the road from the TA and Flying J. Park at either one and a short drive to the facility.
