Camille - check with a storage place near you that people store their vehicles. Maybe you could set something up with them for a few bucks a day, keep receipts and talk to task adviser about writing off as employee expense. There a storage place near my house that I've seen a couple tractors in there for a couple days and gone for awhile, so I'm assuming thats what they are doing. Doing it that way most storage facilities require access code and have surveillance cams.

Walmart's, Lowe's and other very large stores of that type usually have no issue with letting drivers park their truck at the store while on home time.
I have also seen where drivers have parked their truck at a shopping mall during their home time. The key to parking at these types of places is to contact the management of said establishment and make the proper arrangements to park the truck.
Where in MO do you live? There are many truck stops in MO, no reason you can't park at one for your home time.

Thanks I'll look into some of those places. I'm kinda in the middle of know where as far as truck stops go it's a long drive!

I'm getting ready to start my phase 2 with a trainer and when I'm done I'll get my truck (hopefully) now I can't bring it home because I live on a military base in MO and the nearest terminal for my company is 2 hours away. :/ so ideas on where to park it? There's like 2 big gas stations that are kind shady near by but any better ideas on where I should look?
Where are the truck stops near the base? Usually you'll have no problem even to leave it parked for 34 hours. Best bet is a local operated stop. You know, the neighborhood kind. Talk to management, I'm sure they'll be amenable.
Say, what happens when you PCS?
my husband is almost out of his contract then we will team

I just recently got my cdl and now I'm trying to decide which company to go with Schneider I've been talking to but should I consider any one else? I Live in Missouri
I have been driving for Schneider since I got my CDL. If you go with them you'll quickly learn about the small things that set them apart from most.
Attitude is key. If you have a great attitude and do your research you will find a great company that meets your needs. Good luck.
I hear you! Thanks!

Camille I just finished orientation with Averitt. I have absolutely nothing but good things to say about them and am very pleased with my decision. If after researching them on your own should you have any questions about the organization Id be happy to answer them via PM as best I can. I had many options for my first company and I feel certain I've made the right choice for me personally with Averitt. If you qualify, they WILL take care of you.
Awesome thanks I'll pm you I'm very interested

Like others have said, whatever suits you and your families needs. Since your in Missouri I would take a look into Prime as well, they're based in Springfield. There is also Henderson trucking, they're based out of Salem IL, but the yard is in Collinsville just east of St. Louis.
Ok I'll look into those thank you
