Im looking for secure parking with showers between Germany and Warszawa , plus cost plz .
Stop at the 1st huge one on the left called NEVADA. Don’t stop at anywhere else. It’s free, has a supermarket/toilets/shower/pizzeria/restaurant. I stayed here several times. It’s about 20mins from the border.
Additional…There are various new service stations on the toll motorway. McDonalds signs warn you of their arrival. Free!
This is a crap answer but have you ever tried truckinform.eu ?
I don’t know how reliable it is but typing in “Germany E30” in the quick parking search brings up a few places east of Berlin.
Maybe a good last resort if you get stuck? who knows.
Thanks Bigvern1/Red squirrel , secure truckstops look a bit thin on the ground . ive not been to poland before so thought i,d best find out …
It’s an adventure over there. Keep well over to the right, cos’ you WILL be overtaken. There are literally hundreds of truckstops and services over there. You are spoilt for choice mate. Just chill, and think ahead. That’s the best advice. The main road to Warsaw is in pretty good nick. I’m only a bit jealous!!!

Yes it is very good truckstop on old A2 route but sadly they will be forgetten soon! due new A2 full motorway open on last Christmas from Frankfurt Oder Borders (German side) to Warszawa! Old A2 Route - plenty of Fuel station, truckstop, truckwash, mushroom stalls, ■■■■■■ nightclub and women stand on the street on almost every 12km!
I am sure you will driving on new motorway section - toll free from German Borders toward Poznan (special offers opening deal until May) - plenty of free parking on services & rest place but beware could be full up before 6pm due full of Russian trucks park up!
If you rather parking in Germany side so only Autohof on A12 just after pass Berliner Ring
Esso Autohof Spreenhagen - Storkower Strasse 1a, 15528 Spreenhagen - A12 J3 (pay fee)
or Last Germany service station before toward to Poland - Shell MSA (free)
dont forget A12 - lots of overtake bans! full of Polizei, BAG and Zoll on this stretch motorway!
Thanks Betz…I wasn’t sure if the motorway was fully open. It wasn’t quite finished when I was last there. So anywhere on the new motorway would be fine then!! 
Intermotel at Poznan was a favourite of mine, nice showers in a room, good food etc…

Forgive my ignorance having only done poland 6/7 times all before 2000.I used to stay at the novomotel in poznan,is this the same place?
regards dave.
Nevada every time, free, cheap food, decent showers, good supermarket with amazing bakery
That’s what I said. I would go outta the way to stay there. Even though, any of the services on the new motorway are brilliant. Showers about 80p!
Just shy of Magdeburg on the A2, reachable in one card from Calais is this spot:
rasthof-uhrsleben.de/en_parc_ferme.php
Canny snap, comely serving wenches, etc…

I agree, it was always a regular stopping place for me. Even if I got there very late, after midnight, there was always parking spaces. I never had any problems just parking in the free bit, secure bit is probably overkill.
The link Inselaffe put up looks good , and the one at poznan sounds popular…so both could be worth a visit .
I usually use the Ohrlens garages and I have never had trouble at any of them.
They have all you need on site.

Fixed that for you! 
That’s what I said / meant about the new motorway ones.
Look for this Logo.

Nevada is OK, but it’s the huge one. If you look for something cameral, on the other side of the village you have one called “las vegas”

The restaurant there is much better
