Free Parking

How safe is safe parking though? I’ve heard lots of reports of diesel/cargo going missing from services. They advertise cctv and security, take your £25 and then when something goes missing/gets damaged all of a sudden the cctv doesn’t cover the lorry park/wasn’t working.

I run 2 trucks of my own and while I will pay for parking in an emergency I don’t bother as a rule. Not because the money isn’t in it or because I’m greedy, I just don’t agree with paying over inflated prices for what is a glorified lay-by. They stink of ■■■■, the surfaces are terrible, the food is ■■■■ and you have trucks coming in all night for breaks/trailer swaps. Give me an industrial estate any day
