Truck Driving Jobs

I used to park in the lot where I drop at and go home but they needed the space. The owner of the building moved me next door in the local shariffs lot for a while now I park in a lot for a building he has empty just down the street from my stop. I keep the snow plowed for him in exchange, no agreement I just figured it's the least I could do and he dosn't worry about keeping the fire lane open. The only truck stop around charge $5 a day or $100 a month.

I have a friend who has a deal with an iHOP near his house so when he's home he parks there, I think he says he pays a few bucks every night that he parks. I park my dump truck at a storage facility, it's lighted and you have to enter a code to get in the gate, $60/month.

I park at the shop near our dedicated site. As of now, I don't have any place where I know I could park it... yet.

I park it in my shop now, but before that I used to pay a local outfit here (Superior Carriers terminal) $100 a month to park the truck at his yard. Only reason I PAID was becuase he put's eveyone on an insurance binder, that way if something happens to your truck, you are covered. One guys truck got broken into a few years back, and the owner of the place turned it into his insurance and the guy got everything reimbursed. But that was back when I was home every night and off weekends. If I only was going to be there 2-3 nights a month, I'd just have parked it at the truck stop in town and let my own insurance take care of it.

Check with the city and see if they have a lot you can park at. Also, depending on your location, many agricultural related business' will let you park a truck there for the weekend. Key here is to just go ask. In this economy, there are a quite a few lots around most towns that are not being used fully. At the worst, strick up a deal that you will pay a fee for parking priveledges. Surprising what you can come up with. I usually park at the house, since I live rural, but during the bad times in the winter, I can't get out to the house with the truck. My town has an vacant lot that was part of an old manufacturing facility. The town removes the snow during the winter. They want all the trucks parked for time off to use that lot.... free of charge. I contribute a little to the town to defray the cost of the snow removal on that lot. Again, just ask around.

If I'm loaded, I have a place 1 mile from my house that used to be a state highways garage that I can park the entire rig at. I can then take the bobtail to my next door neighbors house, which used to have a barber shop. He lets me park the tractor there. If the weather's bad (snow/ice), I have to leave the tractor at the state highways garage because of the slope of the parking space at the neighbors. I've also left the entire rig at the trucking company's yard.
