Exactly... and may I add that they're putting up the signs because they find their concrete islands have been destroyed and their property is covered in trash and piss bottles.

Be courteous, be clean, learn to drive, and trucks will be more welcome in the future. Common sense goes a long way.

Last time I was there (in my PMV... and its been a while) there were signs saying "no trucks/no overnight parking" (or something like that). I even seen a cop running off a truck that was idling (apparently the driver was sleeping) on the property.

I used to go there often when I drove for CFI. Its not so bad if your bob-tailed, but even then it can be challenging to get in and out.

Deliver for WM

I usually stay at them cause thats where I deliver. I was kicked off a lot in Gardner, Ks awhile back, while pulling a WalMart trailer. When leaving a store I will let them know I plan on staying and ask where they would like me. I was surprised at Gardner because we do a backhaul at Unilever for Walmart, so I had probably stayed at that lot 6 or so times.

i got interweb on my phone, so i try get the number and ahead to ask permission.
that seems to go over well with them.
there's a WMSC in knoxville that has a really good italian restaurant next door.
Most of the Wisconsin ones don't give me a problem. However, the supercenter in Madison has underground parking, so truck parking is kinda out of the question.
