The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists Childersburg Quarry, a crushed-stone operation, 7.8 miles south-east of Vincent, with Landmark Plant, another crushed-stone site, 14.9 miles to the west. A dump truck or tri-axle that has run between those pits and local jobs can be sold from the quarry lot or from your yard; give us the address and the name of whoever can let us in.
The Mine Safety and Health Administration also lists two cement plants: Leeds Plant, 13.7 miles north-west, and Argos Roberta Plant, 19.7 miles to the south-west. If your mixer or bulk tanker is parked at either one rather than at home in Vincent, say which gate it sits behind and we will arrange collection there.
South of town, Sylacauga Marble, Mine #1 is a dimension-stone quarry 16.9 miles away, and the Jordan Plant, an industrial-mineral mine, lies 13.1 miles to the north-west, both on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s roll. Flatbeds that move cut stone or bagged mineral off sites like these are trucks we buy; photos of the deck, the cab and the data plate help us see what you have.
Per the North American Rail Network kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, Coosa Pines yard is 3.4 miles east of Vincent and the Honda Auto yard is 5.5 miles south-east. A tractor that shuttles loads to and from those sidings can stay where it last dropped a trailer; tell us the yard and a contact on site.
Have the VIN and the current registration to hand before you call about a tractor from the Coosa Pines or Honda Auto sidings. With those two in front of us, the rest of the conversation is about where the truck is and when someone can meet us there.
A log truck, a lowboy or a box truck from any of those lines fits what we purchase, and the title in the owner’s name is the first document to find.
Of those 25, the federal census records 18 as intrastate and seven as interstate, and 14 run as private fleets hauling their own goods. The biggest Vincent operation on that list runs five power units with four drivers, the next four units and four drivers, then three and three; a small fleet can sell one truck or several in a single conversation.
Four new carriers registered in Vincent in 2025 against one in 2024, again according to FMCSA. Among nine local carriers that report mileage to FMCSA, the median sits at 26,667 miles per truck per year; have the odometer reading ready along with any service records you keep.
Sixteen carriers here tell FMCSA their drivers stay within a hundred-mile radius, while 22 report drivers working beyond it. Whether your truck sleeps in Vincent every night or is parked at a terminal out of state, tell us where it is now and we plan the pickup from there.
In and around Vincent, the National Bridge Inventory lists 13 bridges, and none of them carries a load posting or a clearance below fourteen feet. A tall van or a loaded lowboy can be collected from a local address without a detour around a restricted crossing.
Plant jobs and building crews
Straight trucks and tractors that serve those plants can be sold from the shop lot; ask the site manager who signs for a vehicle leaving the property.
Dump trucks, flatbeds and equipment haulers from a building crew are welcome, and a photo of each axle and the VIN plate saves a second round of questions.
The Alabama Department of Revenue lists the Shelby County office at 104 Depot St., Columbiana, 35051, which is 18.4 miles from Vincent, and that is where to ask about a replacement if the title has gone missing.
Bring the registration and a photo ID when you visit Depot Street, and if a lender is still listed on the title, have the lien release with you. Once the Alabama Department of Revenue has issued the replacement, send us a photo of the front and we can move on to collection.
Cotton, cattle and horses near Vincent
Around Vincent and across the rest of Shelby County, 385 farms appear in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, where cotton, cattle and equine operations lead the list. A cattle hauler, a module truck or a farm-plated tractor from one of those places is a truck we collect from the field or the barn.
If the truck has carried farm plates, keep the farm registration together with the title. Tell us in your first message whether it is parked on a gravel lot, beside a barn or out in a pasture.
