I live 15 miles from a truck stop, can you leave the truck parked there during your home time?

If they allow it to be left there unattended for a few days. Sure. But the security of the truck and trailer is 100% your responsibility.

Werner allows me to take my truck and trailer home with me or allows me to bobtail if there are no empty trailers available.

Bobtail:

"Bobtailing" means you are driving a tractor without a trailer attached.

If I could bobtail then I know I could park it at the house. That would be the best for me. Thanks guy!

I assume I would be pulling an empty trailer?

No, not necessarily. Sometimes they'll give you a load that goes past your house so you'll take it home and then deliver it when your home time is complete.
