On Friday, November 8, the much-anticipated Truckers Paradise opened its doors, claiming the title of the largest travel center in the U.S. This facility is conveniently located at the site of a former outlet mall at 4321 N. Interstate 35 and promises a host of amenities tailored specifically for truck drivers.

“This week is our soft opening to begin testing systems, conduct training and ramp up fueling capacity,” Truckers Paradise CEO Dean Ash told Land Line. “Please come and let us know what the most important items in a truck are stop or travel center. We are looking for unique ways to give truckers the best possible experience anywhere.”

Current amenities include:

• Fuel stations

• Restrooms

• Truck wash facilities

• A convenience store

• A chrome shop

• Truck accessories

• A cigar shop

• A loading dock for limited freight transfers

• Comprehensive camera monitoring

• Overnight security patrols

Adjacent to the Truckers Paradise complex are a Cracker Barrel restaurant and a movie theater. Coming in December, a Sbarro pizzeria and Cut Café, specializing in soul food, will also open.

Parking is ample, with 178 diagonal spaces providing 6 feet of separation for safety and security. Plans are underway to expand with an additional 250 spaces. Long-term parking and RV sites with full hookups are available, along with accommodations for oversized loads.

Throughout November, truckers can enjoy free overnight parking by signing up here. Post-promotion, spaces can be reserved via Truck Parking Club for $15 daily.

A common issue at other stops—drivers idling at the fuel island—is addressed at Truckers Paradise with mobile fueling. While enjoying the facility’s offerings, a portable dispenser visits trucks parked in designated areas, refueling them. This mobile service extends to the truck wash as well.

While many standard truck stops offer similar amenities, Ash has envisioned transforming the former outlet mall into a “trucker village,” creating a comprehensive hub for all trucker needs. With limited parking options at locations like salons, banks, or medical facilities, Ash plans to bring these services to one accessible spot.

“We are basically bringing the city to the trucker, because the trucker can’t get to the amenities in the city,” Ash said. “We will be the largest truck stop by amenities to the professional driver, with almost 200,000 square feet of services.”

To reach Truckers Paradise, take Exit 501, and turn left immediately past the Hampton Inn Hotel on the west of I-35 to enter the rear of the stop.
