About Love's Travel Stops
Love's Travel Stops & Country Stores, commonly known as Love's, is a family-owned and operated chain of travel stops and convenience stores headquartered in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
Established in 1964 by Tom and Judy Love, the company has grown to become one of the nation's leading travel stop networks, with over 640 locations across 42 states.
Love's offers a comprehensive range of services designed to meet the needs of both professional truck drivers and everyday motorists. Each location provides 24-hour access to clean and safe facilities, including gasoline and diesel fuel, fresh coffee, and a variety of restaurant options.
The company partners with well-known fast-food chains such as Arby's, Bojangles, Burger King, Chester's, Dunkin' Donuts, McDonald's, Taco John's, Subway, Wendy's, Hardee's/Carl's Jr., and others to offer diverse dining choices.
In addition to fueling and dining options, Love's locations feature convenience stores stocked with travel essentials, electronics, snacks, and more.
For professional drivers, Love's provides over 430 truck service centers, including Speedco and Love's Truck Care locations. This network forms the largest oil change, preventive maintenance, and total truck care service in the nation, boasting more than 1,500 maintenance bays and 1,200 emergency roadside vehicles.
The company has also expanded its services to include Love's Hospitality, offering a growing network of hotels and storage rental locations, and Love's Financial, which provides freight bill factoring and back-office support to professional drivers.
Love's commitment to innovation is evident in its acquisition of Trillium Energy Solutions, rebranded as Love's Alternative Energy. This division specializes in alternative fueling solutions such as CNG, hydrogen, EV charging infrastructure, solar installation, and on-site electricity generation.
Combined, Love's and Love's Alternative Energy own 65 public-access CNG facilities.
