Facility Overview
Situated at 150 E 5th St in Bayonne, New Jersey, Truck Parking Commercial offers a dedicated open-air surface staging and parking facility tailored primarily for commercial fleets, tractor-trailers, bobtails, box trucks, and large work vehicles, as well as passenger vehicles and commuter cars. The expansive, ground-level layout provides wide maneuvering aprons that allow heavy-duty transport vehicles to easily turn, stage, and reverse into stalls. Because the lot is an entirely open-air yard with no overhead canopy or parking deck infrastructure, drivers enjoy unrestricted vertical clearance, making it suitable for high-cube trailers, refrigerated units, flatbeds, and high-roof commercial vans.

Visitor & Driver Tips
Commercial drivers arriving with full 53-foot trailers should utilize designated commercial routes such as Route 440 and main local arterials to avoid narrow residential side streets in downtown Bayonne. If you are coordinating long-term parking, fleet storage, or weekend layovers, verify gate access arrangements and operational check-in procedures in advance. Relief drivers arriving by public transportation should plan to use the 8th Street Light Rail Station, an easy and safe walk from the facility.
