Location
What it shows: The dashed box is the search area, with the highways and roads that feed it.
Where we're looking — not the final lot. Field work tightens the box down to the parcel actually worth buying.
Access
What it shows: How many vehicles use each road per day, and where trucks can legally park nearby. On this corridor the interstate carries about 38,000 vehicles a day, and public truck parking is thin.
Heavy traffic means visibility and demand. Little existing truck parking means room for a new yard.
Visibility
What it shows: How easily drivers see the site from the road, with street-level photos along the frontage.
A quick look before anyone drives out. Sightlines and frontage get confirmed in the field.
Land condition
What it shows: Every parcel with its owner and value — around 1,300 here — plus flood risk, zoning, ground elevation, and soils. Flood came back low risk. There's no local zoning layer, so allowed uses get confirmed with the county. Soils separate wet ground from buildable ground.
The "can you actually build here, and what will fight you" section. This is where weak sites fall out early and cheaply.
Economics
What it shows: Land values sit on the parcel map, corridor freight gives context, and the demand headline is the carriers — more than 1,500 active trucking companies within 30 miles, and about 3,000 owned trailers.
Owned trailers are the parking customers. This is the number that tells you whether a yard pays.
Demographics
What it shows: Population, income, and age in the trade area — around 53,000 people and roughly $85,000 median household income.
Matters most for hotel, restaurant, or retail uses. Useful background for a truck yard.
Competition
What it shows: Truck stops and services within about 100 miles, plus dozens of hotels and motels within 30 miles for driver and crew lodging.
What's already serving the corridor — and the gap a new site could fill.
Broker Tools
What it shows: Click any parcel to pull its facts — size, value per square foot, flood and soil flags, and the county record — then add it to a short list and export it. Quick owner lookup searches the web for the owner's name, phone, email, or website, and shows what it finds with the source. So you don't have to chase down the contact yourself.
The working surface for the developer and the broker, built to save you steps. Any contact it returns is a starting point marked unverified — confirm it before you call. The tool recommends no parcel on its own; the development judgment drives it.
