Description
Today, the Iowa 80 Group spreads over 11 locations in the U.S. and includes the latest ideas and technology in fueling islands, service centers, truck washing, truck weighing and the biggest truckers store in the country. We are home to one of the largest trucker appreciation days, the Walcott Truckers Jamboree, held in July every year. Our goal is to welcome truckers, travelers, and local customers, by providing a comfortable, secure and pleasant place, offering services and products they need. Our company started when trucking was just a gleam in some of today's drivers' eyes and Interstate 80 was not yet completed, the Iowa 80 Truckstop was founded. In 1964, Standard Oil built and opened the truck stop, and in September 1965, Bill Moon took over management of the truckstop for Amoco. Like many of the truckstops in existence at the time, Iowa 80 was a small facility that only took up a fraction of what it does today, housing a small truckers store, one lube bay and a restaurant run by the Peel family.
