Landmark and Alabaster
Two quarries just below Eagle Point
The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists the Landmark Plant and the Alabaster Mill, both crushed-stone quarries, 3.6 miles south of Eagle Point. Tri-axle dumps, end-dump trailers and the loaders’ service trucks are the equipment that pit traffic puts on Shelby County roads, and any of them can be sold where it sits.
If your dump truck is parked at a pit yard rather than at your house, give us the gate details and a contact on site. For a truck that hauled aggregate, photograph the body, the hoist, the tailgate and the VIN plate, and send them with the title so the quarry work is clear from the start.
Norris, Leeds and the racks
Rail, fuel and cement around the county line
Northward, 10.8 miles out, sits the Norris rail yard, listed on the North American Rail Network kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. Day cabs that shuttle loads between a railhead and local customers often stay on short loops like that one, so tell us whether the tractor is at a yard, a shop or a driveway in Eagle Point.
Two petroleum product terminals, Birmingham at 11.5 miles north-west and Birmingham 481 at 12 miles west, appear in Energy Information Administration records. A tanker or tank-trailer tractor that loaded at either rack should come with its hazmat placards removed or noted, its registration, and whatever tank test certificates you still hold.
Leeds Plant, a cement plant the Mine Safety and Health Administration places 12.2 miles north-east, rounds out the heavy sites near town. Bulk pneumatic tankers and mixer trucks serve plants of that kind; if yours did, mention the trailer type and whether it sells with the tractor or on its own.
Construction payrolls
Service bodies, flatbeds and dumps from Eagle Point builders
Construction accounts for 73 of the 799 jobs located in Eagle Point in 2023, a 9.1% share, by the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts (LODES). Contractors at that scale usually keep a few pickups with service bodies, a dump truck or a flatbed, and we collect single units as readily as a yard of them.
Selling more than one truck from a contractor’s lot? List each VIN, which ones carry liens, and who signs the titles for the business, so a single collection can clear the whole group.
Gins, pastures and barns
Cotton, cattle and horse operations
USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 385 farms across Shelby County, with cotton, cattle and equine as the leading lines. Those operations keep grain and module trucks, livestock haulers and the pickups that tow horse trailers.
Farm trucks often sit in a barn lot or a back pasture. Tell us whether a truck with a full trailer can reach it on a gravel lane, and whether it carries farm plates, so we know what paperwork to expect when we come out.
A signed title plus registration and service records
The title is the one document we need in hand, signed by the owner shown on it. If it is lost, the state’s title agency issues a replacement, and it helps to start that request before we schedule collection from Eagle Point.
Alongside the title, keep the current registration, any lien release, and the service or inspection records you have. Photos of the cab, the odometer, the frame and each side of the truck let us match what we see to what you describe.
Collecting from bases, pits and home lots
Two military installations, NG AASF02 Birmingham at 12.5 miles and Birmingham Airport at 12.6 miles north-west, are listed by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. If your truck is parked anywhere with restricted entry, from a guarded base lot to a fenced quarry, tell us who can let our driver in.
For a truck at home in Eagle Point, a clear spot on firm ground with room for our driver to reach the cab is enough. Send the address, the keys’ location and a phone number for whoever will be there.
The questions we get asked in Eagle Point
- Can you collect a dump truck from one of the quarries south of Eagle Point?The Landmark Plant and the Alabaster Mill sit 3.6 miles south, per the Mine Safety and Health Administration, and we collect from pit yards like those once someone on site can open the gate.
- My tanker loaded at the Birmingham terminals, so which documents go with it?Energy Information Administration records place those racks 11.5 and 12 miles from Eagle Point; send the title, registration, tank test certificates and photos of the tractor and trailer.
- Do you take livestock haulers and module trucks off Shelby County farms?Cattle, cotton and equine lead the county’s 385 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, and the haulers and module trucks those farms use are trucks we collect from the barn lot.
- My Eagle Point truck title is missing; who issues a duplicate?Eagle Point owners apply to the state’s title agency for a duplicate; start that request early so the signed title is ready when we arrive.
