Stone and minerals
Quarry and mine work on the west side
The Mine Safety and Health Administration places JENKINS PIT, a crushed-stone quarry, 2.3 miles west of Montgomery. A dump truck or tractor that hauls aggregate out of a pit that close to town is often parked at the quarry gate or a yard near it, so tell us the address and who can let us in.
Landsdown Montgomery Plant, an industrial-mineral mine, sits 2.9 miles north-west of the city on Mine Safety and Health Administration records. If your truck worked that site, send the title, the current registration and photos of the bed or trailer, the cab and the VIN plate together in one message.
Rail yards and bulk terminals around the city
Two rail yards appear in the North American Rail Network (Federal Railroad Administration and Bureau of Transportation Statistics) near Montgomery: CHESTER, 4.4 miles north-west, and HOPE HULL, 4.8 miles south-west. Day cabs that shuttle loads between those yards and local docks can stay where they are parked; give us the yard and a contact who can open it.
Per the Energy Information Administration, the MONTGOMERY petroleum product terminal lies 4.8 miles north-west of town, and Transflo CSXT, a liquid bulk terminal the Bureau of Transportation Statistics lists, is 4.8 miles west. A tractor that pulled tank trailers between them should come with its title and any inspection records you kept, so its history is clear before pickup.
Who holds operating authority in Montgomery
FMCSA’s carrier census shows 1,289 active carriers in Montgomery, with 413 running interstate, 876 intrastate and 551 operating private fleets. Whether your authority covers one state or many, the paperwork we ask for is the same: title, registration and the VIN.
General freight is the cargo 769 of those carriers list with FMCSA, followed by logs, poles, beams and lumber at 236, machinery and large objects at 203, and metal sheets, coils and rolls at 191. Tell us what your truck hauled and which trailer it pulled, and include a photo of the fifth wheel or deck.
Montgomery added 114 carriers to FMCSA’s census in 2024 and another 86 in 2025. An owner-operator who started recently and is selling the truck should have the title in hand or know which lender holds it before we schedule anything.
Model years on Montgomery’s roadside inspections
Across 1,245 trucks inspected between 2024-08-28 and 2026-08-27, FMCSA roadside inspection records give a median model year of 2019 for Montgomery, with 29.3% ten or more years old. Whatever the year of yours, send the odometer reading and a clear shot of the VIN so the details match the title.
Of the drivers carriers here report to FMCSA, 2,837 stay within 100 miles and 2,311 travel beyond it; the median annual miles per truck across 251 reporting carriers is 26,851. If your truck is out on a long run, tell us where it will be parked when it comes off the road.
The three biggest fleets based in Montgomery run 330, 126 and 70 power units under FMCSA’s census. Selling several units at once works the same way as one: a list of VINs, the titles and where each truck sits.
Low bridges and load-posted crossings
Of Montgomery’s 288 bridges in the National Bridge Inventory, 11 carry a posted load limit and 2 clear less than 14 feet. When you send the pickup address, mention any route in or out that a tow or a tall load would need to avoid.
The lowest structure the National Bridge Inventory records here carries Long Acre St over a pond at 9ft 11in. If your truck is parked anywhere near it, say so, and we will plan the approach from the other side.
