Swift Drivers

I like using Walmart's. They have LOTS of cameras. Each side of the building has no less than 4 cameras watching. The Walmart I use next to my house, I park in the employee parking next to the grocery docks. There are 6 cameras watching that side of the building, plus 3 more watching the docks. At least 3 cameras have a view of my truck. If something were to happen. It would be easy to find out who done it.

Patrick, last l heard Walmart stopped truckers from parking in their lots, has that changed?

Serah, I'm not Patrick, and I don't drive for Swift, but the satellite view on Google maps shows six trucks parked on the southeast corner of the Walmart on Cincinnati Dayton road in West Chester, including one pulling wiggle wagons. It's definitely worth a shot.

Some Walmarts allow truck parking and some don't. It's really up to the store manager. I would call them and ask to speak to a manager there about parking your truck for a few days on home time.

If they don't allow parking, I would try somewhere else. If they balk a little at having it sit there for a few days, let them know you shop there regularly -- sometimes that helps. Offer to give them your phone number so they can call you in case your truck somehow gets in their way for whatever they're trying to do around the store.

My wife and I both used to work for the WalMart I park at. That being said, WalMart has no policy against truck parking. Some even have truck parking setup. (Prime example is WalMart in Manchester, TN). It is up to each individual store manager. If a store gets a manager that don't like trucks..... usually most managers are fairly receptive, until some idiot goes around running things over and hitting stuff.

To qualify, most Walmart's will allow overnight parking, but not all of them. It's best to check and call ahead. Many of the older stores and/or if located in urban areas may not have the space or local ordinances prohibit truck parking. I service a territory of 100 plus Walmart stores and about 25 Sam's Clubs, 20% of them do not allow parking overnight parking.

Thank you all for the info.
