(Tyler, Texas) It's common knowledge that the backbone to our country is the hardworking truck drivers and we have quite a few that call East Texas home. Which is why before we get into places to park a semi, I just want to say thank you to all the truckers. You are very much appreciated.

Obviously, I am not a truck driver. The reason I wanted to write about this is because I saw the question asked on social media and there were some tremendous responses. Anything I can do to help share information with these hard-working individuals; I want to do just that.

Semi-Trucks Cannot Just Park Anywhere

All Texas truck drivers know, you can’t just park anywhere your truck will fit. A semi is a large vehicle, so business owners aren’t always open to you taking up their parking spots.

I thought Walmart was open to park your semi, but I learned through this online post that Walmart has towed semis from their parking lot in the past. Just be very careful before you park your big rig without getting permission.
