TruckPark launched a new mobile application in the U.S. that is designed to enable truck drivers to reserve overnight parking.
CEO and Co-Founder, Anthony Petitte, said TruckPark is ‘committed to improving the truck driving experience using technology to overcome the problem of finding safe and secure parking.’
Petitte said, “When drivers get near their limit for the day, they need to find available parking right away. Too often, drivers waste valuable time searching for a place to park. We are introducing a technology solution to enable them to quickly and easily overcome this persistent problem.”
“We are helping address a national issue,” said Joshua Walls, chief operating officer and co-founder of TruckPark. “More than 90 percent of drivers experience problems finding safe parking at night. And those drivers spend an average of 54 minutes daily searching for parking. The TruckPark app will not only help them find a secure parking spot but also enable them to reserve the space so it is still available to them when they arrive,”
“More than 85 percent of truck cargo theft happens in unsecured areas,” Walls said. “Each parking lot TruckPark partners with is vetted for security.”
TruckPark has partnered with a variety of parking facilities along or near major U.S. highways notorious for ‘hard-to-find’ parking.
“TruckPark Inc. is a values-based company driven by the mission to empower truck drivers while providing a safe and unmatched experience,” Petitte said. “We will revolutionize the trucking industry by providing drivers with an easy and reliable app to find safe, secure parking, and an opportunity for private lot owners to maximize their revenues.”
The TruckPark application is free to download in both the Apple and Android app stores.
