Love’s Opens its Largest Travel Stop Ever

On Dec. 12, Love’s Travel Stops opened four new locations to the public, including its largest facility, ever, located in Bliss, Idaho. The opening blitz also added 322 new overnight truck parking places on heavily traveled routes in the Midwest.

With the new Travel Stop openings, Love’s is now serving customers in Rockford and Olney, Illinois; Napoleon, Ohio; and Bliss, Idaho. The Bliss location features over 21,000 square feet.

“We’re closing out the year by opening four new locations, including our largest yet, to help get customers back on the road quickly and safely,” said Greg Love, co-CEO of Love’s. “Opening four locations in one day is no small feat, but our corporate and store team members know that providing clean places and friendly faces is more important now than ever.”
