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

Midfield is a Jefferson County town ringed by rail yards, fuel terminals and stone quarries, and the tractors, dump trucks and tankers that serve them are the trucks we come here to buy.

Yards beside Midfield

Rail yards at Flintridge and Elliot, containers at CAICTF

The North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration with the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, places the Flintridge yard 0.9 miles north-west of Midfield and the Elliot yard 2.7 miles north. If your day cab has spent its working life shuttling between those yards and nearby lots, tell us which yard it ran from and where it sits now, and we can plan the collection around the gate rather than a street address.

Bessemer’s Central Alabama ICTF, which the Bureau of Transportation Statistics lists as a rail intermodal ramp 3.5 miles south-west of town, is where containers come off the trains. A tractor that has pulled chassis out of CAICTF only needs its VIN, the title and a set of clear photos of the cab, frame and fifth wheel to get started with us.

Racks and pits

Birmingham fuel racks, Lakeshore stone and Oak Grove coal

Two petroleum product terminals appear in Energy Information Administration records just east of Midfield: the Birmingham Blending Terminal at 2.3 miles and the Birmingham terminal at 2.5 miles. Tank tractors that load at those racks are trucks we buy, and any site paperwork you kept, such as loading-rack records or service logs, belongs in the folder alongside the registration.

Lakeshore Quarry, a crushed-stone operation the Mine Safety and Health Administration places 2.8 miles east, and Wade Sand & Gravel, 6.1 miles north-east on the same agency’s list, keep dump trucks and aggregate haulers moving around the edge of Birmingham. If your dump truck is parked at one of those pits, send us the location and the name of whoever can let us in.

West of town, the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists the Oak Grove Preparation Plant, a coal preparation plant 5.7 miles out. A coal hauler still sitting on a lot near Oak Grove can stay there; we collect from the site, so you do not need to move it into Midfield first.

A dozen registered carriers, most of them local

FMCSA’s carrier census counts 12 active carriers based in Midfield, with 10 of them running intrastate and 2 crossing state lines, while 4 operate as private fleets hauling their own goods. Whether your truck stayed inside Alabama or ran interstate routes, bring the current registration and the title in the name on the paperwork.

General freight is the most common cargo listed, with 5 carriers in the federal census, followed by driveaway and towaway work and machinery or large objects at 2 each, and dry bulk commodities at 1. Box trucks, lowboys, car haulers and bulk tractors from those lines of work all fit what we collect.

The biggest outfits registered here are small: according to FMCSA records, the top fleet runs 3 power units with 2 drivers, the next 2 power units with 3 drivers. Selling one truck out of a two- or three-truck operation is routine for us, and we can work with whichever owner or partner holds the title.

Clearances and access

Clearing the way for a Midfield pickup

The National Bridge Inventory, kept by the Federal Highway Administration, records 7 spans around Midfield, and it lists none with a load posting and none flagged for low clearance. A tall trailer or a loaded lowboy can usually leave a Midfield driveway by the direct road rather than detouring around a restricted bridge.

The last stretch is the part the bridge records cannot show, so tell us if the truck is behind a locked fence, boxed in by other equipment or parked off the pavement, and send a photo of the approach. With the access known before we arrive, the right recovery truck comes the first time.

Midfield payrolls and Jefferson County farms

LEHD job counts from the Census Bureau put 1,615 jobs in Midfield in 2023, with manufacturing at 172 of them, or 10.7 percent, and transportation and warehousing at 51, or 3.2 percent. Straight trucks and tractors that served plant shipping docks or warehouse runs around Midfield are part of what we take on.

Out across Jefferson County, the 2022 Census of Agriculture from USDA counts 398 farms, with cattle and cut Christmas trees among the leading products. A livestock hauler or flatbed that worked those farms can be collected from the farm itself; have the title and registration ready and tell us which gate to use.

The questions we get asked in Midfield

  • Can I sell a dump truck that is still at a quarry outside town?Lakeshore Quarry, 2.8 miles east in Mine Safety and Health Administration records, and the Wade Sand & Gravel pit to the north-east are both places we can reach. Send the site address, the title and a few photos.
  • I own two trucks in Midfield. Could I sell the tractor and keep the box truck?Midfield’s largest registered fleets run 3 power units or fewer in FMCSA’s carrier census, so a single truck out of a small fleet is exactly the kind of sale we handle. Bring the title for the truck you are selling and its registration.
  • Will low bridges be a problem getting a tall rig out?None of Midfield’s 7 bridges in the National Bridge Inventory are load-posted or under 14 feet, so tell us where the truck is and we will plan the route from there.
