About Big Ugly Truck
A Direct Commercial Truck & Trailer Buyer You Can Count On
Big Ugly Truck is a direct buyer of commercial trucks and trailers operating across all 50 states. We purchase semi trucks, heavy duty trucks, medium duty trucks, light duty work trucks, and all types of commercial trailers directly from owner-operators, trucking companies, fleet managers, and businesses.
No auctions. No brokers. No middlemen. We make a direct cash offer and close on your timeline.
What Makes Big Ugly Truck Different
Most truck buyers are brokers — they take your information, shop it around to actual buyers, and collect a fee in the middle. Big Ugly Truck is the actual buyer. When you submit your truck or trailer to us, you’re dealing directly with the company that will purchase it, write you a check, and come pick it up. No intermediaries, no auction fees, no commission.
Direct Buyer
We are the buyer — not a broker, not a listing service, not an auction house. When you accept our offer, you’re done. No waiting for someone else to buy your truck from us.
Cash Offers in 24 Hours
We respond to most quote submissions within 24 hours of receiving your truck or trailer details and photos. No waiting weeks for an auction date or a broker to find a buyer.
All 50 States
We purchase trucks and trailers in every state. We come to you — wherever the equipment is located. Yards, job sites, farms, ports, warehouses, or your home.
We Handle All Paperwork
Every title transfer, every document, every filing — we handle it. You sign the title over to us at pickup and you’re done. You don’t visit a DMV or file anything.
Any Condition
Running or not. High mileage or low. Accident damaged, flood damaged, fire damaged, or sitting for years. If you have a clear title, we will make you an offer.
Fast Close
Most deals close within 3 to 5 business days from initial quote submission. We move on your timeline — if you need to close fast, tell us and we’ll prioritize your deal.

Our Requirements
We keep our requirements simple. There is only one hard requirement to sell your truck or trailer to Big Ugly Truck:
- Clear Title — The title must be in your name or your company’s name. Salvage titles are accepted. Liens must be resolved before or at closing.
Everything else — condition, mileage, age, make, model, running status — is factored into the offer price but never disqualifies your equipment from consideration.
We do not require:
- The truck or trailer to be running
- Any repairs or upgrades before selling
- CARB compliance or emissions upgrades
- A minimum mileage or age requirement
- The equipment to be road-legal or registered
Submit your equipment as-is and let us give you a number.
