Facility Overview
Situated in the industrial and logistics corridor of Northeast Portland, Find Truck Parking (also operating locally as The Truck Depot) at 8101 NE 14th Pl, Portland, OR 97211, provides a dedicated, heavy-duty vehicle parking and staging facility. Designed specifically to handle industrial demands, this open-air, secure surface lot spans several acres and features approximately 140 commercial-grade parking stalls.

Visitor & Driver Tips
Prior reservation is strongly advised, especially for tractor-trailer combinations arriving during peak weekday evenings when regional freight capacity is tight. When approaching the facility, navigate via primary arterial truck routes (such as NE Columbia Blvd to NE 14th Pl) rather than residential side streets. Ensure you confirm gate access credentials or arrival check-in instructions in advance if checking in after standard office hours.
