The best truck stops of 2026

Trucker Path has recently unveiled its list of the 100 best truck stops of 2026.

Trucker Path released its annual ranking recognizing the highest-rated chains and independent locations across North America. Through its mobile app, used by truck drivers to find truck stops, parking, fuel, and more, the company evaluated ratings and reviews collected over the past 12 months.

Based on feedback provided by drivers, the 2026 list highlights truck stops that stood out for their amenities and customer service among more than 9,000 total locations.

The rankings were determined by driver reviews, with separate recognition for top chains, top independent locations, and an overall Top 10 list. In addition, the Sustained Excellence Award was introduced for 2026, honoring truck stops that have appeared on the Top 100 list for five consecutive years.
