Every truck driver knows the struggle of finding safe, reliable parking. In this episode, Aurel Davidyan talks about why he started Truck Depot and how his own experience behind the wheel exposed one of the trucking industry's biggest daily challenges.

We talk about the parking shortage drivers face, how lack of parking impacts safety and compliance, and what Truck Depot is doing to make life on the road easier. Aurel breaks down the real-world problems drivers deal with after the wheels stop turning—and why solutions built by drivers matter.

If you've ever circled a lot at night or planned your day around parking availability, this episode will hit home.
