About Us

The BIR Travel Plaza was built by people who understand drivers and life on the road. Designed for owner operators, fleet drivers, and travelers in East Tennessee, it provides a clean, dependable place to fuel up, park, eat, and recharge.

The plaza offers BP fuel with dedicated diesel lanes, standard gas pumps, and 250 parking spots for trucks and vehicles, making stops quick and hassle-free. Amenities include clean showers, driver facilities, and RV hookups for comfort on long trips.
Food options include Jack in the Box for familiar favorites and Naan Stop, a made-from-scratch restaurant serving fresh meals quickly.

The plaza is part of the Team BIR family, founded by Jimmy Singh, who built his career in trucking. Beginning as an owner-operator in 1993, he expanded his business into BIR Transport, which now operates 65 trucks and 130 trailers, serving major companies across the Southeast and Midwest.

In 2022, Jimmy bought a 72-acre abandoned truck stop in Dandridge and transformed it into the modern BIR Travel Plaza, creating a space centered on what drivers really need.

More than just a stop, it's a place designed for the people who keep America moving.

“Opportunity does not come when you are ready for it; you must be ready for the opportunity when it arrives.”
