Facility Overview

Truck Parking Club at 33 Rodgers St in Avenel, New Jersey, provides a dedicated, heavy-duty commercial surface lot tailored specifically for professional motor carriers, commercial logistics fleets, tractor-trailers, bobtails, box trucks, and large utility vehicles. Positioned in a bustling industrial and freight distribution corridor of Woodbridge Township in Middlesex County, this expansive open-air parking depot offers wide staging lanes, substantial turning radiuses, and generous berth dimensions designed to handle full 53-foot trailers with ease. Because this is an entirely open-air ground-level industrial yard, there are zero vertical overhead clearance restrictions, ensuring hassle-free parking for high-cube trailers, refrigerated containers (reefers), intermodal chassis, car haulers, and oversized commercial vehicles.

Visitor & Driver Tips

Because truck parking along the I-95/New Jersey Turnpike corridor is under tremendous demand, it is strongly advised to pre-book your space ahead of time via the Truck Parking Club platform to guarantee availability before initiating your shutdown. When approaching the facility, navigate via US-1/9 onto commercial-designated secondary routes to Rodgers Street to avoid weight-limited residential side streets. If you are operating a refrigerated unit (reefer), verify on-site positioning guidelines upon arrival to ensure minimal disturbance to fellow resting drivers. Have your digital reservation QR code or reservation ID handy at the entry gate for rapid, contact-free check-in.
