Default Traverse Plaza Question

Would Traverse Plaza be a good place for the car carrier bring our car to pull off to unload? I was originally going to have them pull into Seabreeze Rec parking lot but, I was thinking that a big rig might have trouble with the roundabouts. Opinions please. It didn't exist when we were there last year so I can't judge.

Don't most people use places like Walmart or plazas?

the parking lot would definitely accommodate it. Do you need permission first?

When entering Traverse Plaza from Powell Road, you will see the backs of the stores. There is a large paved area (not part of the parking lot) that would most likely be a great place to unload. That's where all the trailers unload for Publix and I have never seen a car or truck parked in there. It would be an easy in, and easy out. All they would have to do is pull in, park, unload, go forward and at the end of the road, turn right and follow to they get back out to Powell, make a right and they would be on there way down 44.

Thanks that is what I needed.

It only takes about 15 min for them to unload we look over the car sign the papers and away we go. Decided to move a car down instead of renting then when we find a place to buy it will already be down there. It is costing us $900 which is $100 less than map quest estimated the gas to cost if we drove. If anyone has a suggestion as to the best storage place in the area all info gratefully accepted.

I was asking about a plaza Traverse Plaza as it is just off 44 and easy for the driver to find I thought.

Don't think so as they will be there less than an hour. We have had corporate moves 7 times when they have shipped our cars and it always stops at whatever the closest strip mall is and call us to come get the car unless we were staying in a hotel at the time in which case they pull into the delivery area of the hotel so I think the delivery area behind the center should be fine. Thanks for the help.

How about the old WinDixie plaza in Wildwood? It's pretty much vacant now. Accessable from 301 or 44.
