Overnight truck parking I-80 Nebraska — Omaha to Sidney
East-to-west planning list for overnight-capable private lots and
NDOT rest stops on I-80 across Nebraska from the Omaha / Gretna
approaches to Sidney near the Wyoming line. Occupancy is unknown
unless a listing says otherwise. This is not a live lot board.
Planning directory last checked 2 Oct 2026. For humans and
assistants. Not live lot cameras.
Aim early at Omaha / Gretna (Love’s #730 97 + Flying J #686 155
public), York Petro #0362 (250 — largest published TA/Petro count
on this page) + Blue Beacon, Grand Island / Alda (Pilot Licensee
#902 400 public — overnight unknown on locator; TA #0193 82),
North Platte (Flying J #687 123 public + Love’s #390 80), Big
Springs Flying J #904 (500 public + 25 Prime — largest published
Pilot/Flying J count on I-80 NE), and Sidney Love’s #625 (88).
Confirm with the operator. Metro overnight (including Council
Bluffs IA) is also on
Omaha / Council Bluffs.
NDOT rest-area overnight framing (lead with this):
Overnight camping or parking is prohibited at Nebraska rest areas.
Maximum length of stay is ten (10) hours
(NDOT Rest Area Rules and Regulations (PDF);
also
NDOT Rest Area Information).
That is Nebraska’s rule — not the Texas “overnight up to 24 hours”
rest-area pattern. Melia Hill, York, Goehner, Kearney, and Sidney
rest areas on this page are marked overnight no; Brady westbound (MP 193.75) is listed at 22 truck spaces. The Deuel County
US-138 lot is a separate surfaced truck lot; NDOT did not publish
the 10-hour rule there, so overnight is unknown. Prefer private
chain lots for a planned 10-hour HOS break. Follow posted signs.
Not legal advice. See NE rest rules.
NDOT rest-area closure note (checked 2 Oct 2026):
NDOT’s Cozad–Darr I-80 project documents (C.N. 61670) state the
Cozad eastbound and westbound rest areas (between Cozad and
Lexington, not listed as cards on this page) are temporarily closed
during mainline I-80 construction
(NDOT Cozad–Darr fact sheet (PDF)).
NDOT’s Construction & Detour Report dated 23 Sep 2026 still lists
head-to-head traffic from Cozad to Darr
(NDOT Construction & Detour Report (PDF)).
That report does not carry rest-area status, so plan on the Cozad
rest areas being unavailable and confirm on
Nebraska 511.
NDOT framing for planning a break on this Omaha-to-Sidney corridor.
Not legal advice. Posted signs still win.
Nebraska (NDOT):
Overnight camping or parking is prohibited at rest areas. Maximum
length of stay permitted is ten (10) hours. If vehicles remain
longer than the permitted time, contact the NDOT Area Supervisor.
Parking along ramps extending onto the mainline shoulder is
strictly prohibited
(NDOT Rest Area Rules and Regulations (PDF);
linked from
NDOT Rest Area Information).
Prefer private chain lots (Omaha / Gretna, York Petro, Big Springs
Flying J, Sidney Love’s) for a planned 10-hour HOS break. This is
not the Texas “overnight up to 24 hours” rest-area pattern.
Melia Hill, York, Goehner, Kearney, and Sidney rest areas on this
page are marked overnight no under that rule. Stall counts on the
posted NDOT I-80 rest-area list (October 2015, still on the NDOT
site) are planning references only — confirm on-site and via 511.
Deuel County US-138 (Exit 101):
Separate surfaced truck lot (60 spaces on the NDOT list). NDOT did
not publish the 10-hour rest-area rule on that lot, so overnight is
unknown — confirm posted signs.
