As the owner of vacant commercial land, you may have considered various ways to generate revenue from your asset but have yet to arrive at anything ideal.
You are not short on ideas, but all possibilities seem to require a substantial commitment in terms of time, money, and ongoing management. Construction. Entertainment. Retail Development. Hospitality. The possibilities are endless, but so are the investment, effort, and management requirements.
As a result, many commercial landowners choose to leave their property in a redundant state, knowing that the asset will increase in value over time. While that is a perfectly reasonable approach, there is usually an unavoidable, nagging fact accompanying that conclusion: in some unknown way, a lucrative revenue stream is probably being left on the table.
Release the Potential
We are going to suggest a way to solve that dilemma and generate immediate ongoing profits from your land through an idea that is proving extremely lucrative for commercial landowners all over America. It is a fairly new concept with extremely high demand, and if you have any experience in business, you will know those two things are something of a holy grail in terms of opportunity. Better still, it requires very little investment (if any at all) and barely any management.
We are talking about the next big thing in commercial property capitalization: truck parking. If you aren’t involved, we would like to explain why you probably should be.
To do so, we need to address three of the most important criteria at the heart of most good business ideas: What is the Problem that needs solving? What is the solution? And How can you provide that solution?
The Problem
The transport industry has been experiencing a severe issue over the last decade or so, with a severe lack of designated truck parking spots. Currently, there are approximately 350,000 truck parking spaces available for 3.5 million commercial trucks, creating a huge disparity that is causing major turmoil in the industry.
Truckers are governed by strict regulations stating they must park and rest for a minimum of eight hours every eleven hours of driving. To do so, they need to park at a truck stop or a rest area. Given the shortage of truck parking spaces, most truck stops are full by mid-afternoon, which means drivers are forced to seek alternatives, none of which are ideal.
Exit ramps, urban underpasses, unsafe urban supermarket car parks, and even highway shoulders are the most common alternatives, each of which poses several issues related to safety and expensive violation ticketing. Truckers want convenient parking options, but they simply aren’t available in adequate numbers.
Truck Parking Crunch
In hindsight, this problem has been years in the making. As e-commerce boomed, so did the number of trucks delivering goods across the country, and while the national fleet grew rapidly, the infrastructure didn’t keep up. Couldn’t keep up. In addition, with the average truck driver’s salary increasing quite generously each year, more new drivers are entering the industry which again means more truck drivers.
It’s a simple case of too many trucks chasing too few spots, and the government is simply not addressing the issue effectively.
The Solution
The obvious solution would be for the government to build more truck stops, and while promises have been made during election campaigns, rarely do they come to fruition. By the same token, the industry probably needs to do more, possibly by collaboratively funding truck stops as an operational expense. But with rising industry overheads, you will forgive them for feeling that this is the government’s responsibility and not theirs.
This shifts the attention to the private construction sector, but the idea of developing 30-acre truck stops is often dismissed in favor of more conventional ventures.
Emerging Niche
Just as all roads seem exhausted, a new niche has emerged, and with it, we may be in the early days of an extremely lucrative boom.
Commercial landowners can now monetize their idle land by renting out dedicated parking spaces on an ad-hoc or permanent basis, affording truckers more convenient parking in the process. It is a firm win-win solution, and it’s making a notable dent in the truck parking problem.
Through our growing network of private landowners – equating to an area the size of a small city – truckers can browse and book truck parking spaces in real-time, while commercial landowners are generating extremely healthy ongoing revenues in the process.
How Do You Provide That Solution?
So, how does this apply to you as a commercial landowner? And are we suggesting you build an actual truck parking lot on your spare land?
Not really, no. While certain terms and compliance standards must be adhered to, our scheme is easily accessible for truck parking business benefits. If you have commercial land with appropriate surfacing in the form of concrete, gravel, asphalt, or stabilized ground, you probably qualify for instant land monetization by offering it to drivers in need of truck parking spaces for a fee.
