With the openings of its new locations in Wichita, Kansas, and Hattiesburg, Mississippi, Love’s Travel Stops has surpassed the milestone of 650 stores.

The Wichita location is one of Love’s largest stores to date and “helps meet a big need for truck parking and other pro driver services in the Wichita metro area,” the company said. The location adds 122 truck parking spaces and a Speedco truck maintenance shop with truck wash services that will open next month.

The Hattiesburg location adds 84 truck parking spaces and “adds pro driver services to an area previously without a national travel stop presence.” The company also noted that its location along a major travel corridor and near recreational attractions such as the De Soto National Forest makes the store a “strategic location for Love’s growing RV network,” with six RV hookups, RV dump service, private showers, Wi-Fi service and more.

In honor of the grand opening of these travel stops, Love’s will donate $5,000 each to Atwater Neighborhood Resource Center in Wichita and United Way of Southeast Mississippi in Hattiesburg.

In September, Love’s launched Traverse Travel Gear, a new private merchandise brand. The brand is designed to be “a mix of road trip essentials and pieces to maximize comfort while on the go.” Available now, the initial product offering includes a neck pillow, a traditional-sized blanket and a smaller, lightweight throw blanket.
