I-40 truck parking in numbers
I-40 has 77 public truck parking sites in the federal inventory, with 1,280 truck spaces across 8 states. That is an average of 17 spaces per site, against a national median of 15 for all public sites.
The most spaces are in Tennessee (418, 33 percent of the route), then Arkansas (196). The fewest are in California, with 34 at 4 sites.
The largest site is NHS Rest Stop 31: Llano Estacado/Glen Rio (Welcome Center) in New Mexico, at mile 373, with 52 truck spaces.
The longest stretch between two listed public sites in the same direction is in Arizona: about 212 miles eastbound, between mile 23 and mile 235. Private truck stops may fill part of that gap; plan the last stop of the day before you reach it.
These are capacities from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics inventory, not live availability, and private truck stops are not included. The hours of service guide explains why the 14-hour window, not the 11 hours of driving, decides where you need a space, and truck parking by state compares I-40 with the other interstates.
