Tractor Truck and Trailer Parking Specialist here to help

When I first joined StoreMyTruck.com back in August of 2022, I came on here to the BP forum and I noticed that there was not a lot of info. about the Industrial Outdoor Storage (IOS) space nor was there a lot of info. about the truck parking biz. I'm posting here and staking a flag for folks that might be interested. If you're not familiar with StoreMyTruck.com, we are one of the largest truck and trailer parking/storage operators in the U.S. The company was started out of Atlanta and grew throughout the Southeast from Texas up through North Carolina. Since joining SMT, I've been able to expand the business into VA, and focusing on our expansion into the Midwest markets.

Besides specializing in truck parking facilities, we also have a lot of Class C buildings on our properties that we utilize for trailer repair, offices, distribution facilities, etc. The concept is really starting to catch on and I'm super excited to be a part of it.

Like I wrote in my bio, if you have questions about IOS, the truck parking biz, Industrial Class C buildings/clients, feel free to reach out or if you just want to talk shop. Looking forward to connecting with others to both learn and share!

Do you have a property in mind? The truck parking business in theory is relatively simple concept, it's the management of people and systems where it can get difficult for most operators.

So you guys only have one location. How many leads do you have in TX? From what I understand, this is just an online SEO marketing play to get referrals.

@Ronald Rohde Are you referring to my post? If so, you are wrongly mistaken. The owner started the company back in 2009 in Marietta, GA and has grown the business to 70 plus locations in the Southeast. It looks like you're in Dallas, the company actually recently opened a location in Irving, TX. The property is in the process of getting electrical right now, please stop by and take a look; https://www.loopnet.com/Listin...

I'm not sure what your question was about leads in TX...we get a lot, so we're actively looking if you have any Industrial properties available.

 I'm referring to my experience, maybe it was a different site, but has tons of locations that they don't own.  I had contacted them about listing our locations with them, it was marketed to me as lead gen where you take a cut. I'm familiar with that 183 site, you guys have tons of trucks parking there now. We were under contract with your neighbor Geter to buy his lot awhile back.

Its all good man, consider me correctly mistaken.
