What to know"},"content":{"rendered":"

Given how often gas station <\/a>parking lots serve as a safe haven for broken-down vehicles or for folks looking to park and ride with a co-traveler, you might be wondering: Does Texas\u2019 favorite bucktoothed beaver offer the same courtesies? Turns out, Buc-ee\u2019s<\/a> isn\u2019t quite as generous with the parking spaces long term.<\/p>\n

Buc-ee\u2019s has a very clear policy<\/a> about leaving a vehicle unattended in their parking lot, and it\u2019s don\u2019t do it. This must have been a common question hurled at quick-working cashiers scanning Beaver Nuggets and brisket sandwiches, because there\u2019s more than one question about parking overnight on the Buc-ee\u2019s frequently asked questions site.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn our efforts to maintain a safe and secure environment for all of our customers, we cannot accommodate vehicles for an extended amount of time in our lots,\u201d the company says in response to questions over both parking and leaving and parking overnight.<\/p>\n

Plus, there are signs banning a lot of things plastered across the commercial glass windows and doors outside Buc-ee\u2019s locations across Texas and across their ever-expanding national footprint. That includes a sign prohibiting overnight parking in their lots.<\/p>\n

While Buc-ee\u2019s is a gas station at its core \u2013 you can get gas and grab a snack and a soda for the open road \u2013 it\u2019s absolutely not a truck stop. In fact, the business has been accused of barring all commercial vehicles, including 18-wheelers and anything larger than an SUV, to keep traffic moving quickly. And it also means they aren\u2019t a safe space to grab some shut-eye or ditch your broken-down wheels.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Given how often gas station parking lots serve as a safe haven for broken-down vehicles or for folks…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":408600,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[821,847,820,82,84,83],"class_list":["post-408599","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-san-antonio","tag-mysabusiness","tag-mysanews","tag-mysastaff","tag-san-antonio","tag-san-antonio-headlines","tag-san-antonio-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/408599","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=408599"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/408599\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/408600"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=408599"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=408599"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=408599"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
