    I would not think that is a good idea.

    Oh. You're going to love the SeaTac area. Parking galore. Wide streets and beautiful women who love truckers and no rush-hour traffic.

    Seriously, you need to carefully plan a SeaTac approach that will work with your unload and reload. Arrive in the area by 13:00 if you can. Lot depends on where you're approaching from and when you will arrive in the area and need to unload.

    The loves is full at noon.
    You may want to check Ernies just north of the loves. $25 parking because its Seattle area.

    Last time I’ve been there I nearly ran out of hours looking parking. Mind you I normally look for parking on my last 2 hours. I ended up driving back to the reciever and begging them to let me park for the night.

    There's a few motels with some truck parking off I-5 (Pacific Hwy) in the Fife area that have truck parking and rates are reasonable but call first.

    LOL, I think it is now full earlier than that. They are starting their long awaited construction project and have blocked off a bunch of parking spots. As I understand it, there will be a new building and additional land (between current love's and 705) added to the property. So it will be bigger. But for now, very limited spots.
     
    Oldironfan Thanks this.

    Which way are you coming from? If coming in on 90, I'd try the Love's in Ellensburg.
    Ellensburg may seem far, but I know that TA east of Tanner on 90 always seems full. (As in trucks lined up along the side of the exit ramp)

    If coming up I5, the Love's in Napavine (exit 72) would be okay. Not as far as it may seem. Not sure how crowded the Pilot at exit 99 gets.
