Franklin County
Where Hodges sits
Hodges is in Franklin County, and the census counts 420 people here, at 102 per square mile, with a median age of 35.3 years.
What we know about Hodges is what the census records and what Alabama law requires; the yards, pits and depots we have researched elsewhere have no entry here. So the question we can actually answer is how a truck gets out, not who else might want it.
Alabama weight law
That road has a number on it
That route out is where the state stops being an abstraction. Alabama sets the ceiling before any local sign lowers it.
In Alabama the overall gross weight is 80,000 lb, including all enforcement tolerances (Ala. Code § 32-9-20 (Schedule of Restrictions)).
So what leaves Hodges
That rule meets 420 people in Hodges, Franklin County, at a household median around $69,286 and a density of 102 per square mile. A truck sitting in a driveway here is a working asset that has stopped working, whatever the size of the place it stopped in.
What we take out of a place like this is sleeper tractors and day cabs, dump trucks and roll-offs, box trucks and flatbeds, pickups and duallys, and the service and utility bodies that outlive the business that bought them.
