Mines and plants a few miles south of Moody

The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists the Jordan Plant, an industrial-mineral mine, 4.1 miles south of Moody, and the Leeds Plant, a cement plant, 5.3 miles to the south-west. A dump truck or mixer that works those two sites may well be parked at a yard between them when you decide to sell. Give us the street address of wherever it sits and the name of whoever holds the gate key.

Further out, Dolcito Quarry, a crushed-stone quarry on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list, lies 15.6 miles west. If your truck spent its shifts on quarry roads, keep any site inspection sheets or maintenance logs with the title, and photograph the bed, the frame and every tire along with the cab so the pictures cover the whole truck.

Rail yards and a bulk terminal west and south-east

Norris rail yard is 11.6 miles west of town and Coosa Pines rail yard is 16.8 miles south-east, according to the North American Rail Network kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. A tractor that shuttled freight to either yard can be collected from the yard lot itself; tell us the yard, the gate and the contact who will be on site.

A liquid bulk terminal 17.1 miles west appears in the Bureau of Transportation Statistics listings, and the same source places two military installations, NG AASF02 Birmingham and Birmingham Airport, about 15 miles west. If your tractor pulled tank trailers toward that terminal, send its VIN and a note of which trailers it coupled to, and keep the registration in your name until the sale is done.

Carriers registered in Moody and the freight they move

Moody has 85 active carriers in FMCSA’s carrier census; 59 of them run intrastate, 26 run interstate and 42 operate private fleets. A private-fleet truck often carries a company name on the title, so check whose name is on it before you contact us and have that person or officer ready to sign.

General freight is hauled by 46 of those carriers, motor vehicles by 17, machinery and large objects by 14, and logs, poles, beams and lumber by 9, per FMCSA’s census. Car haulers, lowboys and log trailers’ tractors are all trucks we collect; say which body or trailer setup yours had so we ask the right questions about it.

Moody’s top three fleets field 76, 30 and 16 power units apiece on FMCSA’s carrier census. Eighteen local carriers gave FMCSA a yearly mileage, and the middle truck among them logged 37,750 miles. If you are retiring several units at once, list each VIN with its odometer reading and the address where it is parked.

FMCSA roadside inspection records from August 28, 2024 through August 26, 2026 take in 112 trucks belonging to Moody-based carriers, and the median model year among them is 2020. Have the model year, make and VIN to hand when you reach us, since those three details start every conversation.

Of those 112 inspected trucks, 16.07 percent were ten or more model years old in FMCSA’s roadside inspection records. Whatever the year on your title, bring that title along with the current registration and any service records you keep in the cab.

Wholesale, factory, building and farm work near Moody

Wholesale trade holds 698 of Moody’s 3,817 jobs in 2023 on the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts, ahead of manufacturing at 544, construction at 357 and transportation and warehousing at 61. A box truck or straight truck that served a wholesale or factory route might still be at the loading dock; tell us if it needs a dock manager’s permission to reach.

Across the surrounding county, USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 585 farms, with cattle, equine and deer as the top operations. A livestock hauler or flatbed kept on a farm can be collected right from the pasture gate if you send directions and a phone number for whoever lets us in.
