Many of the stations here have an ample section of the lot dedicated to parking, which makes it easy for travelers to pull in and take a moment to stretch their legs and get a breath of fresh air. The pumps themselves are usually positioned in the center of the parcel, and have between six to twelve pumps. Some of the pumps are spaced even farther away from the other pumps in order to make it easy for large cargo trucks to pull in and refuel. These pumps usually will provide diesel gas, while the other pumps may not have this option.

Each station traditionally also has a service bay or convenience store. The service bay is ordinarily capable of working on several cars at once. In fact, the ample parking spaces of the parcel are often used to store vehicles that are undergoing repairs. This bay usually has a hydraulic lift which allows mechanics to boost the cars into the air and work on the engines.

Leasing

Anyone who has investigated the possibility of leasing a gas station in this gorgeous town will immediately note that the convenience stores that often come with these properties are a source of tremendous potential income. How does one stock a store so that it appeals not only to the local patrons but to visitors from out of state?

Although there is no one way to successfully manage a convenience store, there are a few tips that can help practitioners anticipate the demand for their products, and subsequently stock their shelves to provide the best array of products for their customers. The proximity of the beach and the water makes having sunscreen, umbrellas, towels and other lotions a great idea. Snack foods, ranging from delicious items like potato chips to healthier options such as frozen yogurt and pre-chopped carrots, will always be popular with the travelers who are journeying to the seaside.

Having a selection of these items on hand will guarantee that no matter who stops into the store, they can quickly find the items they need. For those customers who have traveled to the store from a more distant destination, having pre-made sandwiches or other easily consumable meals will also be very popular. Being able to quickly select and eat a sandwich makes the journey far more enjoyable. Locals may also relish being able to stop in and pick up a bite to eat as they walk to other parks and local businesses.

Geographical Location

Bordered by the cities of Salem to the northwest and Swampscott to the south, this city is made up of four distinct villages including Clifton, Old Town, and Marblehead Neck. It is also primarily a peninsula and sandbar, and therefore has an abundance of coastline with spectacular views. There are also several islands within the Bay. Route 129 and Route 114 offer access to the city. Route 129 passes through the village of Clifton, while the Steer Swamp Conservation Area is accessed via Beacon Street. Robinson Farm is located off Village Street, and the Bud Orne Park is sited just off West Shore Drive. Seaside Park is located off Atlantic Avenue.
