Non-Boondocking Flying Js?

[woming]

Hi netlanders,

Is there a list available about Flying J sites where boondocking is
prohibited?

(similar to Wal-Mart "No Overnight Parking" Stores )

To be honest, I've never seen a Flying J that didn't allow parking as long as they had a truck parking area.

Never heard of a "J" that wasn't excited to see an RV. They make their corporate policy pretty plain and it's RV-friendly all the way.

They will provide you with a brochure if you stop at a location that shows all their sites and provides a map. The info is also available on the Internet but the brochure is handier.

Most of these letters end with the suggestion that we all thank the establishment where we just stayed by buying fuel or having a meal, etc. Good advice.

I stay at Flying Js all the time and they all embrace the RVer with RV-specific parking areas. I have found two that just don't have the room for RV-specific parking: Florida I-10 at Tallahassee; Florida I-4 at Seffner (next to Lazy Days), but there is a Camping World and a TA at the same intersection. But even though you can still go on the truckers side and I have never had a trucker object, especially if you follow the truckers' rules. Don't go into the truckers parking area with your headlights on after dark; use your parking lights. Dont take a pull-through site if you don't need it. Stay between the parking lines. Don't push out your slides, and use common sense and courtsey.

At Seffner, Florida, you can always go across the street to the T/A.

FJ is always welcoming RVs except for one location. I am frequenting FJ locations whenever possible, due to the fact that I have a subscription to their WI-FI service for my business. They are awesome in providing excellent customer service. The manager at the Cokeville, WY location even came running with an extension cord for my laptop cause there was no outlet in the driver's lounge.

As I said there is one location and that is downtown Salt Lake City, Utah. Huge signs all over the place: "No RV Parking." They prefer trucks to park in the designated RV spaces. 2 of the managers stated they want RVs to move on. After I explained that I subscribe to the WI-FI service and I needed to park there (there was plenty of space available), they stated:
"We'll see about that" and walked off. They did not even let us stay in the truck area, although there was plenty of space there too.

I filed a nice complaint with the CEO of the company (I always go right to the top) and I just hope the managers got fired, because I had a right to park there. I have talked to many store managers of FJ and they are all awesome in providing hospitality. One of them stated, "Of course, the longer you stay here, the more you spend." And that's true.

Not all Flying Js are corporate owned. Many are franchise locations. While the corporate Flying Js welcome RVers, many of the franchise locations do not. If you go to FlyingJ.com and check out the locations, you can find out if a particular location is Corporate or Franchise. While you're on their website, you can also check for services offered at a given location. Many times they will list parking availability.
