Facility Overview
Situated at 201 Henderson Street in southeast Midland, Texas, this open-air commercial parking and drop-lot facility is engineered specifically for commercial transportation and heavy-duty logistics. Operating under network platforms such as Truck Parking Club and TruxSpot, the property provides critical parking infrastructure in the heart of the Permian Basin energy hub. The layout features an expansive, level surface lot with wide turning aprons designed to accommodate demanding turning radii. Unlike traditional multi-level parking garages with restrictive ceiling limits, this yard offers 100% open-air parking with zero vertical clearance restrictions, making it effortless to park full-length tractor-trailers (up to 53-foot dry vans and reefers), flatbed haulers, heavy oilfield transport rigs, car haulers, bobtails, box trucks, high-roof fleet vans, and oversized personal work trucks.

In addition, Texas State Highway 349 offers a direct north-south artery through the Permian oilfields.

Visitor & Driver Tips
Commercial drivers are strongly advised to reserve spaces in advance via the Truck Parking Club online platform or mobile application, as overnight and weekend spots in the Midland-Odessa corridor routinely reach capacity due to high regional freight traffic. When approaching the property, navigate from Business I-20 onto South Lamesa Road or South Fairgrounds Road before turning onto Henderson Street to ensure the smoothest wide turns without navigating residential side streets. Always verify your entry code or digital gate instructions prior to arrival, set tractor and trailer brakes securely upon parking, and confirm designated staging areas if performing an uncoupled drop-and-hook operation.
