Selling a truck in Coats Bend? Tell us about it and we'll take it from there.

Aggregate haulers working the Coosa Plant

Records from the Mine Safety and Health Administration place the Coosa Plant, a sand and gravel operation, about 3 miles south-east of Coats Bend. Dump trucks and end dumps that haul aggregate out of a pit like that often sit parked on a lot near the plant, so tell us whether yours is at home or out by the scales when you get in touch.

A tractor or tandem that has worked loose material at a plant this close to town is the kind of truck we buy. Send us the VIN, a clear shot of the data plate and photos from each side, and say whether the body is a dump bed, a trailer or a chassis only.

Quarry past Glencoe

Tri-axles and mixers off the Glencoe face

Glencoe Quarry, a crushed-stone operation, lies roughly 8.5 miles south-west on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list of mines. Quarry haulers, mixer chassis and tri-axle dumps that run stone from Glencoe can be collected wherever they are parked, whether in a yard near the pit or on your own property along the river.

If the truck has been tagged in Etowah County, keep the current registration card with it. Having the plate details on hand alongside the title lets us match the paperwork to the truck the first time we look.

West toward the yard

From RJ Corman’s tanks to the Alabama City tracks

To the west, at about 11.3 miles, the North American Rail Network maintained by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics shows the Alabama City rail yard. Day cabs that shuttle containers or flatbeds to a yard like that are welcome here; tell us the axle setup and the fifth-wheel position when you write.

RJ Corman runs a liquid bulk terminal some 8.1 miles south-west of Coats Bend, according to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. Owners of a tractor that has pulled tankers from that site should list the trailer separately if it is included, and send any service records they kept for either unit.

Barn lots and gins

Coats Bend livestock, grain and module trucks

Around Coats Bend the farm ground runs to cattle, corn and cotton, the three leading products for Etowah County’s 725 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture. Livestock haulers, grain trucks and flatbeds that move cotton modules are part of that picture, and many stay parked in a barn lot between seasons.

When a farm truck is registered in a family member’s name or an estate, have the person on the title ready to sign. Send photos of the bed, the cab interior and the odometer along with the VIN before we head out to the farm.

Getting a Coats Bend title reissued in Gadsden

Titles in this state come from the Alabama Department of Revenue, which processes applications through County License Plate Issuing Officials. For Coats Bend owners that official is Etowah County’s office at 800 Forrest Ave, Ground Floor, Room #21, Gadsden, 35901, about 8.8 miles from town, as the Alabama Department of Revenue lists it.

If your title is missing, start the replacement at that Gadsden office before we schedule collection. Bring your registration and identification, and let us know when the application is filed so we can plan around the paperwork arriving.

Trucks from the Fort McClellan and Clarke Range side

Two military installations appear on the Bureau of Transportation Statistics map to the south: the NG Fort McClellan ARNG Training Center about 23.8 miles away and the NG Clarke Range Complex roughly 24.9 miles out. Owners who live on that side of the county and keep a work truck at home can reach us the same way as anyone in Coats Bend.

Give us the street address where the truck stands and tell us whether a tow rig can turn around there. Mention a gravel lane, a gate code or a low branch in your first message, too.
