The honest version

Fifty minutes is a real drive. Here is when it pays.

Most yards claiming Houston are inside the city. That is the right answer for a lot of operations, and if yours is one of them you should use one. This page is about the case where it is not.

  • Your freight runs westToward San Antonio, El Paso or the Valley. Collecting from a yard inside the loop means driving out through the metro you just came in through.
  • You stage the night beforePark west, sleep, and start the day already past the traffic instead of sitting in it at 6 a.m.
  • You are paying metro ratesHouston facility rates commonly run $150 to $250 a month for a semi with a trailer. The standard stall here is $129.99, published.
  • You want the space watchedGated with individual credentials, cameras, perimeter fencing, LED lit end to end, generator backed, resident-managed.
  • You need it open at odd hours24/7 on an app credential. Only 36.7% of surveyed facilities confirm 24-hour access.
  • Your freight runs east — then do notIf your loads go east or south, a yard inside the metro will save you the drive. We would rather say so than take the booking.

Questions

Coming from Houston

How far is LockRig from Houston?

About fifty minutes and thirty-eight miles from downtown, west along I-10, leaving at exit 732 for Brookshire. It is a drive, and it is worth it mainly if your freight runs west.

Why park that far out?

Because for westbound freight the yard sits ahead of the metro rather than behind it. Every mile back into Houston to collect a truck is a mile you then drive out again.

How much is truck parking?

From $89 a month for a 40-foot stall and $129.99 for the standard 80-foot tractor-trailer space. Daily runs $10 to $28 by size, weekly from $67.99.

Is it cheaper than parking inside Houston?

Houston facility rates commonly run $150 to $250 a month for a semi with a trailer. The standard stall here is $129.99, and the rate is published rather than quoted.

Should I park here if my freight goes east?

Probably not, and we would rather say so. If your loads run east or south, a yard inside the metro will save you the drive.

Do you take Houston-based fleets?

Yes. Five spaces or more gets one invoice and one point of contact. Call 832-979-2713 to work out terms.
