Truslove, originally spelled Treslove, is an abandoned former town in the Shire of Esperance in the Goldfields-Esperance region of Western Australia. It was situated within the locality of Grass Patch, on the Coolgardie-Esperance Highway. The area around the former townsite is now covered by the Truslove North and Truslove Townsite Nature Reserves.
Originally established as a siding on the Norseman to Esperance railway in 1925, under the name of Treslove, it was gazetted as a townsite in 1927 and renamed to Truslove in 1933. An official 1927 map of the townsite shows the town west of the railway line and consisting of the north-south running Jackson Street and the east-west running Anderson and Grigg Streets, with eight blocks of land allocated along them. The railway siding was closed in 1970.
The Truslove North Nature Reserve was gazetted on 5 October 1917 and has a size of 1.94 square kilometres (0.75 sq mi). The Truslove Townsite Nature Reserve was gazetted on 4 February 1966 and has a size of 60.66 square kilometres (23.42 sq mi). Both are located within the Mallee bioregion:
The Truslove townsite was officially cancelled in April 1976.
