Visitor & Driver Tips

To ensure a seamless parking experience, drivers are strongly encouraged to reserve their stall in advance via the Truck Parking Club mobile platform or website, particularly during peak freight weekday evenings when regional truck stops along I-65 frequently reach maximum capacity. When approaching the property from I-65, take Exit 117 onto KY-44 and connect to Old Preston Highway South to avoid tight local residential shortcuts. Ensure your trailer legs have adequate pads on unpaved ground during hot weather or wet seasonal conditions. Keep your digital reservation confirmation accessible upon arrival to reference your assigned spot and access credentials.
