    There's an old industrial park nearby with rail access that has been disabled for years. (the tracks are ripped up 3 miles away and they're slowly turning the whole thing into a bike path)
    So nobody minds if I park on the rail siding.

    I'm on my first hometime, and have the tractor parked in the driveway. If I should ever have to bring a trailer home, the stub street 200ft away is a perfect parking space.

    I also have the option of a Pilot and Flying J only 3 miles up the road.

    Hey Charlotte. I'm in Monroe. Park at the mall across the street, but I can pretty much see it from home.

    We have a good arrangement that works... I don't ask, and they don't say "NO" lol

    I check daily for a sticker or something, but there's always a couple trucks over there snoozing it out.

    We have a little mom and pop cafe a few miles up the road that has a huge lot and allows us to drop the trailer there when we are home. Then we just take the tractor home and park it in the driveway. Makes it a lot easier to clean, unload and reload the tractor if it's at home.
