Every truck stop will try to attract many clients as possible by offering special club cards, bonus points for free services and so on …

- They have more quality fuel
- They are more approachable because they are placed in 100 miles distance so you can eat in one location and sleep in another.
- They have membership cards where you can enjoy service benefits. Since you are visiting same truck stop but different location you can gather membership points for free additional services
- Since you are not limited to their location (1 in 100 miles), you can use their services whenever you need to
- Most of the truck stop franchisees can give you points for free shower if you buy 50-100 gallons of fuel
- Wider parking areas
Individually Owned Truck Stops
They offer many extras to compensate the lack of locations that large chain truck stop can offer for the travelers.
