About this Location

Facility Overview

Situated at 4946 Avenue 309 in Visalia, California, this Truck Parking Club facility provides a secure, heavy-duty open-air surface parking and staging yard. Positioned within the bustling Central Valley agricultural and logistics hub, the location is tailored primarily for commercial transportation, fleet operators, independent owner-operators, and oversized vehicles. The wide-aperture lot layout accommodates tractor-trailers, semi-trucks, bobtails, dry vans, reefers, flatbeds, hotshots, large motorhomes, and commercial delivery vans with ease. Because it is completely open-air without overhead canopies or multi-story structures, there are no vertical clearance height restrictions, making maneuvering stress-free for high-cube trailers and extra-tall loads.
