The 5 best truck stops in the US

The 5 best truck stops in the US

The main reason for the creation of truck stops was to provide fuel for huge delivery trucks. Over the years, truck stops in the United States began offering more services. Trucks parking, restrooms, shops, fast foods, restaurants just to name a few. Some even offer accommodations.

There are plenty of truck stops along the US roads. Huge billboards and road signs will help you locate them easily. But what is hard to find, is a good truck stop. We’ve done some legwork and found the 5 best truck stops in the US for you. They’ll offer you exactly what you need and sometimes even more!

Living on the road

Being a truck driver is not easy. A very long road demands you to be constantly aware of everything happening around you. It is taxing, especially if you are driving alone. When conquering long distances, you will have to stop a few times to rest, eat, and spend time around people. It doesn’t matter if they are total strangers. Most of them are stopping there for the same reasons as you. Enough talk though, let’s tour the best truck stops in all of America.

Iowa 80

Located in Walcott, Iowa, the 100,000 square foot stop Iowa 80 is the largest truck stop in the world. It recently won the Coolest Truck Stop in America award. So, there you have it: the biggest and the coolest truck stop in the US.

At Iowa 80, you can find anything you will need for real relaxation time. Among the services available there are a movie theater, a trucking museum, private showers, barbershop, dentist, gym, laundry facilities, and a huge restaurant that is well known for its 50-foot- long salad bar. It also offers church services on Sundays and, for 35 years now, Iowa 80 organizes the annual Walcott Truckers Jamboree.

Billy Bob’s

Billy Bob’s Texas truck stop is known for its country music concerts where big music stars perform live. It also offers house bands, bull riding, and dance lessons. It sounds awesome, right? You can definitely have quality time while resting there. Furthermore, Billy Bob’s has 32 individual bar stations, a gift shop, an entertainment facility equipped with event coordinators, and Billy Bob’s Texas Café which is open seven days a week and offers delectable real Texas smoked barbeque beef brisket.

Little America

If you are into luxury resorts, the Little America truck stop, located in Flagstaff, Arizona is the place for you. Originally Little America was designed to be more than a truck stop. It has a getaway giant 500-acre hotel with a golf course, swimming pool, gym, and conference hall, among other amenities, in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by a pine tree forest. Little America also has two locations in Wyoming.

As a truck driver, you can get special room discounts and you can check Little America’s gas prices online prior to arriving there. The stop also has garage services, a service station, a travel center open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and the Little America Grill is open every day.

Sapp Bros 

The next best truck stop in the US is Sapp Bros, located in Sidney, Nebraska. There are also 16 Sapp Bros locations between Salt Lake City in Utah and Clearfield in Pennsylvania that provide 24-hour road service.

The Sapp Bros is well known for its superior customer service. They go by the motto: “Treat every customer as our guest by providing a clean environment, quality products, and a commitment to excellent service.”

If you ever happen to use their restroom, you will understand why they are most well known for their superior customer service. Their unusual truck stop restrooms offer granite countertops. If they are not, you can simply push a button located in the bathroom. That button will flashlight behind the cash register until the staff takes care of the problem.

Morris Travel Center 

Last but not least, Morris travel Center located in Morris, Illinois, offers various facility services such as travel stores, laundry rooms, driver’s lounges, eShop, StayFit walking trail, and more.

If you happen to be hungry while at Morris Travel center, check out their R-Place restaurant. It is one of the best truck stop restaurants in the United States. Open 24/7, it offers the finest homemade food. Including pastries, a bakery, and the exquisite 4-pound Ethyl Burger. The Ethyl Burger special was created in 1987. It was created to offer burger lovers the ultimate challenge.

Now, don’t forget to browse our trucking section. We have written about how to relieve pain and stay healthy on the road, as well as what makes a truck driver a truck driver and more. I hope this was helpful information, both to senior drivers, as well as to those new on the road. If you would like to share your favorite truck stop in the US, please let us know in the comments. Thanks!

Looking for a logistics company, to ship my car, from California to Illinois,my first search, then Corsia showed up, skeptical. Call and a very friendly secretary: Elena. She guided me through, I scheduled and as she explained, all when smooth as scheduled Very happy I did the right choice. I'll recommend this great Company to anyone that is thinking to relocate a vehicle. Thanks Corsia logistics for your honesty and professionalism!

Corsia was highly recommended by a friend in the automobile industry. We needed to transport a cargo van from Seattle to Florida. We contacted Corsia who quickly arranged transport within just a few days. Communication was outstanding! Just a few email confirmations and we were all set. Mike was great and arrived right on time and delivered to Florida on schedule. Tip-avoid the hornets nest of auto brokers on line and just contact Corsia for a truly great experience!

Corsia has been amazing. Their prices are really competitive but more importantly their customer service has been 5-Star. Elena followed up with me every step of the way, making sure there was no miscommunication between me & the driver. We are using them to ship a 2nd vehicle & would not hesitate to use them again!

I have recently used Corsia for long time family car with sentimental value that was moved I have recently used Corsia for shipment of my vehicle from Oregon to Arizona by recommendation from other family member who also used Corsia in the past. I am very pleased on the service and the communication throughout shipment. Ken was my direct contact and kept me informed along the move The car was picked up and delivered as communicated. I did use a enclosed mover and the driver was also clean cut professional and treated car as his own. I would definitely recommend Corsia again with the experience I have had. Thank you. T

Corsia rep (Elena) was very proactive. Helped ship a car from CA to GA. She checked in with me via email quote and several phone calls to find me the best possible quote for the fastest available service. After several communications, Corsia was able to schedule a vehicle pickup the next day. The driver communicated well, and the vehicle arrived in final destination faster than we expected in perfect condition. I highly recommend using Corsia's reliable, efficient service.

Thanks, Corsia! Pickup was so clean, efficient, and wonderful -- my only recommendation is to make sure you schedule it during the day so you can fully review the car in the daylight. Drop off was equally wonderful, and the whole trip went down without a hitch (pun intended!). Seriously, Corsia delivered my Jeep from CT to California with no issues or bumps in the road!

Truly positive experience

Corsia Memphis to LA, mid-size SUV. I looked at 4 different companies amd Corsia was the most responsive of them. While being responsive, they were not unduly aggressive: when I indicated that I need to wait a month before making a decision they stopped contacting me and only came back with a reminder when I really needed it. Once I decided to engage Corsia they found me a transport within two days and the car was delivered (from Memphis to LA) in another two days. I had a truly positive experience.

Working with Corsia Logistics was a great experience. Working with Corsia Logistics was wonderful. They were able to find a driver right away to transport our car. They were in constant communication as to when the car was getting picked up and dropped off. The driver also communicated with me as to when he would arrive. I would highly recommend Corsia Logistics.

Excellent Organization

Corsia was an excellent company to work with while I transferred my car across the US. A friend of mine suggested I use them as they had been very organized and trustworthy with her own car. I researched a few different place but decided to go with Corsia and I'm so glad I did! Any questions I had throughout the process they answered quickly and clearly. I would definitely use them again in the future and recommend them for others to use.
