truck stops

just thought of an idea TO try and make a list of some truck stops abroad ,
just come back from 2 weeks doing france and germany and holland , but trying to find a decent truck thats another matter ,

theres one avus in berlin nice food clean and decent showers,
there also a nice one hamburg , only had food there so cant comment on the rest of it was clean ,

Best thing to do mate is get your hands on a DKV guide, don’t know if they still do them and they used to be rarer than rocking horse muck, but I’ve found them pretty ■■■■ good in the past.

Have a read of the EURO-STCKYSas
THERE are links for you to look at which deal with truckstops,
also if the search button works try useing the system ,Mark you Atlass if you have one as this ensures the location does not get lost and you can transfer these to the new map as and when you get one,

They do a guide for Germany, Normaly in a rack in most autohof’s, Free. you can get the Les Routiers guide off of amazon for France, they also do a guide for swiss routiers, i got mine in a service area near Zurich

There’s also a sat-nav POI file of over 500 UK and European truckstops.
It’s been compiled by Ozzy.
Have a look in the Computer and Technology forum.

ONE of the best links for
good information is on the useful links post
but here is it again TRANS-TOP;LOOK through this site and you will find
truck stops in more than one country,

thanks everyone , anyone know how to put then on a sat nav

Try www.truckinform.eu.

You just enter the city and country and it brings up all truck stops in that area and info on opening hours, amount of spaces ect.

It doesn’t show Roye either, it seems to be mainly service area’s, but is handy if you are looking for a shower in Italy for example

Use Poiconverter by Richard Davis to covert to your format:-

rjdavies.users.btopenworld.com/h … erter.html

then copy file to your Sat Nav (you may have to reset your Sat Nav) then enable POI in menu!

PM me for my Truckstops 2009 (Got asked by Admin to remove link as although I had manually entered each truckstop I had not visited all 1310 truckstops personally so could not call it my own work - Sigh!)

EDIT: Now got 1357 truckstops on list…

I assume its the area to the right of roundabout where all the trucks are parked!

That’s the one. They used to do your laundry, don’t know if they still do.

Here’s another BP just north of Bordeaux.

It’s a bad picture but bang in the middle.

Rue des Droits de l’Homme
Park Industrie et Commercial la Garrose,
Saint Antoine,
Nr Bordeaux.

Another Bordeaux truckstop. The best in my opinion, a Centre Routier you can pig out at so you won’t need feeding for a week.

I think it shuts at the weekend.
