There are few applications that will allow you to find a list of truck stops throughout the USA. This will be of a great use for you as a truck driver to optimize your routes and your days better.
You Have to Deal With the Freight Shippers and the Freight Receivers
Sometimes, when taking the cargo from the shippers, it can immediately be loaded to the truck but other times it might take hours for it to be done. Therefore, you as a truck driver will be basically stuck there waiting.
Sometimes, the freight shippers will have a bathroom that you can use or even a TV that you can watch. This will be a good way to relax a little bit for the time that they take to load the truck.
But this is not always the case, some shippers do not offer this and you will need to be inside your truck the whole time.
Continually, same goes with freight receivers. Any freight brokerage company would appreciate you coming on time more than anything in the world.
Sometimes it is Hard to Find a Truck Stop Where You Can Park the Truck
It is not easy to find a place to park the truck and get some rest. At the start of the truck driving career, most of the drivers park their trucks anywhere just to get some rest.
