Facility Overview
Truck Parking Club at 1521 Wadsworth Road in Orrville, Ohio, offers a secure, expansive, open-air surface parking facility specifically engineered to accommodate commercial transport vehicles and oversized rigs. Situated directly along State Route 57 (Wadsworth Road) just north of central Orrville in Wayne County, this level lot features wide turnaround radiuses and generous bay dimensions. Because this is an open-sky surface property with no overhead structures, canopies, or low arches, there are no vertical clearance limits. The facility accommodates standard passenger cars, light-duty pickup trucks, high-roof cargo vans, and full-size SUVs, while specializing in Class 8 commercial tractor-trailers, bobtails, flatbeds, refrigerated trailers (reefers), and recreational vehicles (RVs).
