In this guide we will be going over booking a reservation in the Truckbays user platform for a seamless user experience.

Before Getting Started

Before we begin we will go over some frequently asked questions on the reservation process in the Truckbays app.

Can I have multiple reservations at the same time?

Yes, in the Truckbays platform you can reserve in as many yards as you need for your fleet. You can also have Daily and Monthly reservations at the same time.

What payment methods are accepted when booking a reservation?

You can pay using either a standard Credit Card or a Bank Account/ACH. Keep in mind the fee for ACH is slightly less.

What is the process for Checking in and Checking out?

The process is very straightforward, once you have finished booking the reservation, download the Truckbays app and you will have gate access automatically. As for checking out once your reservation has come to an end you can just leave the yard and your gate access will be revoked automatically. There is no need to provide any additional information or documents.

Can I reserve a specific spot number or is it assigned automatically?

The spot number for your reservation is chosen automatically by our system. If you would like to change to a specific spot, contact the yard owner directly.

Can I extend my reservation after it has been created?

Yes for daily reservations, when your reservation comes to an end you can chose to extend it. Note: this does not apply to monthly reservation as the payment is recurring.

Can I cancel my reservation after it has been created?

Yes, keep in mind this only applies to the Monthly reservations as the Daily reservations are paid for up front and you will have access until the check out date.
