Guide to Truck Stops

Find truck stops in any location across North America


Truck stop information is essential for anyone trucking long distances in North America. As general service centers along highways do not always have the facilities needed by truckers, truck stop facilities need to be located before a trip begins.

Truck stop companies often have multiple truck stops across a wide area. These companies will usually list their truck stop networks on the internet. However, there will often be more than one company operating in a given area, so it’s a good idea to check out more than one truck stop chain.

You should keep these points in mind when looking for resources about truck stops. Information resources include:

1. Truck stop chains give good information about their own companies but won’t mention competitors, so you need to look carefully.

2. Make sure a truck stop facility has the services that you will need.

3. Locate multiple truck stops along your route so that you have options.

Action Steps

The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Check out lists of truck stop locations to find one in the right location Truck stop chains maintain lists of their companies' stops online, and there are also independent lists of truck stop locations available.

I recommend:  The North American Truck Stop Network, an association of independent truck stops, maintains a list of independent truck stop locations across North America. DieselBoss has a searchable database of over 6,500 fuel stations and truck stops in North America.

Get information from truck stop companies with multiple facilities The larger truck stop chains have facilities over a wide area of North America, so getting information from them can help you in almost any location.

I recommend:  Ambest operates 123 truck stop locations across the US and Canada and offers an alphabetical or by-state listing of truck stops. Flying J has hundreds of locations across North America and offers a search function by state, map location or GPS coordinates. Pacific Pride has more than 1,000 truck fueling sites across North America. You can search by location, your needs and your route.

Read reviews and information about truck stops Truck stops can have different facilities and can also vary greatly in their quality. By reading comparisons of the different truck stops, you can find a truck stop that will be best for you.

I recommend:  Need an all-in-one resource for truck stops? Information can be found in the National Truck Stop Directory, available for purchase online. Layover.com has information for truckers and chat rooms and forums for discussions about all aspects of trucking.
