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

Smith Sand Company Inc, a sand and gravel operation on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s rolls, lies roughly 4.2 miles north-east of the Semmes town centre. Dump trucks and end dumps that load at a pit like that are often parked close to it between jobs, so tell us whether yours sits at a yard near the pit or at your house off a Semmes road.

Construction accounts for 185 jobs held by people working in Semmes, roughly 8.5 percent of the total, according to the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts for 2023. If your dump truck has been hauling fill or aggregate to building sites, have the title and the registration together before we talk, plus a few photos of the bed, the hoist and the cab.

Of the active carriers based in Semmes on FMCSA’s carrier census, 23 list logs, poles, beams and lumber as cargo they haul. A log truck or a flatbed set up for poles can stay right where it is in the woods yard or behind the house; send us the location and the VIN and we arrange the collection there.

Agriculture, forestry, fishing and hunting supply 169 local jobs, about 7.8 percent, in the Census Bureau’s LEHD counts for 2023. USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 657 farms across Mobile County, with cattle, cotton and potted flowering plants at the top of the list. Livestock haulers, cotton trucks and nursery box trucks all qualify, so tell us what the truck carried and whether it comes with a trailer.

East of Semmes, the Energy Information Administration lists two petroleum product terminals, MOBILE at about 11.1 miles and CHICKASAW at about 11.3 miles. If your tractor has pulled a fuel tanker out of either one, keep any hazmat and tank inspection paperwork you hold with the truck, since it tells us where the unit has been working.

Two liquid bulk terminals named Miller and Apex sit roughly 11.7 and 11.8 miles east, per the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. A tractor that shuttles between those docks may be parked near the river rather than in Semmes, and that is fine; give us the yard address and the name of whoever can open the gate.

About 12.4 miles south-east, the Port of Mobile appears in the Bureau of Transportation Statistics list of ports. The North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, places the MOBILE (CN) and MOBILE (AGR) rail yards at about 12.7 miles. Day cabs that drayed containers between those yards and the docks can be collected at the terminal lot or at home in Semmes.

Machinery and large objects appear as cargo for 35 local carriers, and metal sheets, coils and rolls for another 23, on FMCSA’s carrier census. Step-deck and flatbed tractors that move steel coil or equipment through the port are trucks we buy; photos of the deck, the securement points and the tractor’s VIN plate help us start.

Semmes has 150 active carriers on FMCSA’s carrier census, with 95 operating intrastate, 55 interstate and 68 running private fleets that haul their own goods. General freight is listed as cargo by 76 of them in that census. A one-truck owner-operator and a private fleet selling off a few units go through the same steps: the title, the registration and the keys.

FMCSA’s carrier census shows 294 drivers here working within 100 miles and 179 going beyond that. On the same census, one local fleet reports 35 power units and 36 drivers, and two more each report 10 power units. A fleet selling several units at once can list them together, with a VIN and location for each, and we plan one collection around that list.

Registrations kept coming in recent years, with 14 new carriers in 2024 and 11 in 2025 on FMCSA’s carrier census. Among 31 carriers that report mileage, the median is 25,000 miles per truck a year, a figure from the same census.

A median model year of 2019.5 turns up across the 98 Semmes-registered trucks in FMCSA roadside inspection records, which run from September 2024 through August 2026. Those FMCSA inspection records show about 25.5 percent of the inspected trucks at ten or more model years old.

Whatever year yours is, the model year, the VIN and the engine make are the first three things we ask for. If the title has gone missing, tell us at the start so the replacement through Alabama’s title agency can be planned before the collection date.

Will you pick it up beside the pit?Smith Sand Company Inc, listed by the Mine Safety and Health Administration about 4.2 miles north-east of town, is the kind of site we collect from.

• I haul logs for a small outfit in Semmes. Will you take a log truck that hauls poles and logs for a small Semmes woods crew?Twenty-three Semmes carriers on FMCSA’s carrier census haul logs, poles, beams or lumber, and log trucks are trucks we buy. Tell us where it is parked and have the title ready.
