truckstops in South Florida?

They have a brand new one down there on the everglades expressway (formerly alligator ally) they are supposed to be getting 400 parking spots open soon. Truck stop on hwy 997 and 41 intersection. Truck stop on hwy 27 near hwy 826. Vero beach TA on 95 always has parking and ofcorse the flying hook, pilot and loves in fort pierce. I don't know about hwy 84. I'm a terminal to terminal driver. Be careful parking in winter garden FL. They don't like truckers

 

Theres a pilot on the eastern part of 41.

There is a truck stop at the intersection of I95 and I595 read the sign for direction can be confussing to find, I think they charge to park but I never pay. Or furter north you can park at the farmers market in pompano, they have a restaurant and next door is a fuel station with no parking spots

 

They charge $15 a night to park in the front lot, and $10 a night in the back lot.

It is a mess trying to find it, for sure. I'd make sure to get enough fuel for the round trip up in tampa, since fuel runs about 20-30 cents per gallon higher down there than up north.

 

there is a big rest area at the 35 yard stick with lots of parking and at the 50 yardstick there is the indian reservation fuel stop with plenty of parking and then in ft myers is a pilot but it is small and at punta gorda is a pilot just after the scale house with parking and plenty places to eat

 

I live near winter garden Florida, why do you say they don't like truckers?

 

florida is like the west coast to me. i avoid it like the plague. pays good going there, but sucks lollipops getting back out.

 

That's the #### truth. On my recent trip to Orlando all my dispatcher found was a short haul to jacksonville from Orlando then deadheading up to John Deere in Grovestown, GA for a three drop load that had its final drop near El Paso. The freight heading out of Orlando was non existant.

My uncle drops in Jacksonville a lot and always has to deadhead to Alabama or Georgia to get out.

 

Sorry, us guys that live here try to lock up as much outbound as we can. Of course, you guys in TX do the same thing.
