Facility Overview

Situated at 1050 Washington Ave in Niagara, Wisconsin, this dedicated commercial truck and trailer parking facility provides expansive, heavy-duty staging and parking grounds. Formerly home to the regional Gunville Trucking terminal, the multi-acre industrial site has been adapted to accommodate 50 full-size commercial vehicle stalls. The facility is arranged as an open-air, reinforced asphalt and concrete surface yard enclosed by security perimeter fencing. Because it operates as a clear, unobstructed surface facility, there are zero vertical height clearance restrictions, making it entirely suitable for tractor-trailers, standard dry vans, refrigerated reefers, flatbeds, heavy equipment haulers, oversized loads, double-stacked bobtails, high-roof cargo vans, and fleet service vehicles, as well as personal cars left by drivers during duty cycles.

Prime Location & Nearby Attractions

Strategically set in northern Marinette County along the Wisconsin-Michigan Upper Peninsula border, this facility serves as an essential logistics waypoint between Green Bay and the Iron Mountain–Kingsford metropolitan corridor. While built primarily for industrial logistics and commercial freight movement, drivers taking extended rest periods or mandatory DOT breaks will find convenient neighborhood services and regional attractions nearby:

• Dining & Convenience: Walking and short rideshare distances lead to local dining and supply options including Niagara IGA grocery store, Dollar General, The Bunker Restaurant & Lounge, and The Brick Restaurant, all within 1.5 miles.
• Iron Mountain & Kingsford Hub (approx. 5–7 miles): Just across the Menominee River into Michigan, drivers can reach major lodging and retail centers, including Holiday Inn Express, Motel 6, Dickinson County Memorial Hospital, and regional shopping plazas.
• Outdoor Recreation & Sports Venues: Located 15 minutes away is the world-renowned Pine Mountain Ski Jump and Golf Resort, Millie Hill Bat Viewing Sanctuary, and access points along the Menominee River for whitewater rafting and fishing.
• Educational & Civic Points: The School District of Niagara campus sits immediately up the road along Washington Avenue, while Bay College West Campus is a brief drive into Iron Mountain.

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity

The facility offers convenient access to regional freight corridors. Located immediately off Washington Avenue and Tyler Road, commercial haulers have a direct connection to US Highway 141 (US-141), which joins directly with US Highway 2 (US-2) minutes north at the Michigan state line. Ingress and egress are built specifically for industrial vehicle turning radiuses, featuring a wide entrance gate and vast turnaround aprons that prevent bottlenecking during concurrent arrivals and departures. While rural Wisconsin has limited scheduled municipal rail transit, regional on-demand rideshare options (Uber and Lyft) and local taxi operators service the terminal, facilitating easy travel to nearby hotels and restaurants. In addition, food delivery platforms like DoorDash and Uber Eats service this yard.

Visitor & Driver Tips

Drivers planning an arrival should reserve their stall ahead of time through the Truck Parking Club mobile app or website to receive gate access credentials and ensure an assigned space. If hauling heavy freight or dropping a loaded semi-trailer, remember that landing gear support pads (dunnage boards or shoe pads) are strictly required to protect the paved surface. During northern winter months, monitor local road alerts along US-141 and US-2 for severe weather conditions; although the lot contracts snow removal, carrying traction aids and an engine block extension cord is advised during deep sub-zero conditions. Ensure all fluid servicing is performed at licensed service locations such as nearby Badger Auto Repair, as fluid dumping or wet repairs are prohibited on-site.
