Sell your semi truck for cash in Hobson City the easy and convenient way

The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists Coldwater Quarry, a crushed-stone operation, 2 miles south-west of Hobson City, and Speedway Quarry, another crushed-stone pit, 12 miles to the west. Tri-axle and quad-axle dump trucks, tractors pulling end-dump and belly-dump trailers, and the water trucks that keep a haul road wetted down are the trucks that sit near pits like these, and we purchase all of them.

A dump truck that has hauled stone out of Coldwater is likely parked at a house or on a small lot within a few miles of the pit, and that is where we meet it. Photograph the bed from above, the tailgate, the frame rails behind the cab and the tires, and have the title in hand before we come. If the truck carries a two-way radio or a tarp system, mention it; those details belong in the description alongside the VIN.

Four miles east of town, the Energy Information Administration records a petroleum product terminal at Anniston. Tank tractors that load there, the day cabs on the short runs and the sleepers on the longer ones, are on the list of what we purchase, and so are the straight-truck bobtails that deliver from it. The tank’s placards and its last pressure test certificate go with the truck, so photograph both.

The Bureau of Transportation Statistics places Anniston Army Depot 7.5 miles west of Hobson City and the Fort McClellan ARNG training center 8.9 miles north-east. A truck that has hauled for a contractor on either site will have gate passes, delivery records or inspection sheets; keep them with the truck. If it is still parked behind a gate, tell us which one and who controls access, and the collection is arranged with that person.

The Mine Safety and Health Administration also lists the National Cement Company plant and the Ragland industrial-mineral mine, each 19.8 miles west of Hobson City. Pneumatic tankers that carry cement powder, and the dump and flatbed trucks that move material out of Ragland, are trucks we purchase wherever they are parked, in town or out at the plant.

The North American Rail Network, maintained by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, records the HONDA AUTO rail yard 16.4 miles west of town. Car haulers and the day cabs that shuttle trailers to a yard like that are on our list, and so is the yard tractor that never leaves the lot. Send the VIN, the odometer reading and a photo of each side of the truck, and say whether a tow truck can reach the spot where it is parked.

Around Hobson City, the farms counted by USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture - 601 of them across Calhoun County - raise cattle first, then cotton and corn. Livestock trailers behind a tractor, grain hoppers, the flatbeds that move hay and the trucks that carry cotton modules off the field all come out of those farms, and we purchase every one of them.

A farm truck here is usually a single-axle or tandem day cab, or a straight truck with a grain or livestock body, parked in a barn lot rather than a terminal. Farm plates and seasonal use are fine; have the title and the registration ready, and if the truck is at a field rather than the house, give us the address and a phone number for whoever can meet us at the gate.

Titles in Alabama come from the Alabama Department of Revenue, and the office that handles them for Hobson City is the Calhoun County License Plate Issuing Official at 1702 Noble St., Suite 107, Anniston, 36201, which the Alabama Department of Revenue’s office listing puts 3.4 miles from town. A seller whose title is missing applies for a replacement there before we collect the truck, and the registration, the VIN and a photo of the door tag are what to bring to the counter.

If the title is in a business name, bring whatever shows you can sign for the business, and if a lien is printed on the title, the release from the lienholder travels with it. Tell us at the start that the title is being replaced; the rest of the sale, the photos, the description and the collection address, goes ahead while the county processes it.

Hobson City is a small town with its working sites spread in every direction: the quarry 2 miles to the south-west and the fuel terminal 4 miles to the east, on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s and the Energy Information Administration’s listings, with the depot and the cement plant further out to the west. A truck does not have to be brought into town to be sold; it stays where it is, and we come to that address.

What we need from you is the address, the name of whoever holds the keys, and whether a flatbed or a tow truck can get in and turn around. A truck parked on someone else’s lot, at a quarry, a farm or a contractor’s yard, is collected with that person’s agreement, so give us their name along with yours.

• Do you buy a tanker that has only run between the Anniston terminal and local stations?The Anniston petroleum product terminal that the Energy Information Administration lists sits 4 miles east of Hobson City, and a tank tractor or a bobtail that has worked from it is a truck we purchase.

• The truck has farm plates from a Calhoun County cattle farm. Will you still purchase it with those plates?Calhoun County’s 601 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture put cattle, cotton and corn trucks on the roads around Hobson City, and a farm-plated day cab or straight truck is one we purchase. Have the title and the current registration ready, and tell us whether the truck is at the house or out at a field.
