So simple answer; the main Marshalling lot IS available for you for early rig parking.

Thanks for asking!

Perfection!

I figured this tidbit would be helpful this coming November.

I also am in the habit of arriving on Wednesday, and have been chased out of the C/P.
The big marshalling lot is wide open on Wednesday except for a few Reliable etc. rigs mostly, and no security is un-nerving. My answer, snug up close to a rig where the driver will be present all night, between two is better. Employ multiple locks and chocks, and disable the truck multiple ways. Have adequate insurance in place. It's a 25 minute walk to the hotels.
Don't be the low hanging fruit.
