North-east of the square
Winfield’s gravel pit, Marion County Rock and the southern mines
All Star Sand & Gravel, Inc. is 1.2 miles north-east of Winfield according to the Mine Safety and Health Administration, close enough that a dump truck parked at the pit is effectively parked in town. If your truck loads there, give us the gate it sits behind and a name at the scale house who can let our driver in.
MARION COUNTY ROCK, a crushed-stone quarry, lies 7.3 miles to the north-east on Mine Safety and Health Administration listings. A tri-axle or end-dump that has hauled stone out of that quarry can stay on the quarry lot while you sell it; send us photos of the bed, the hoist and the cab, plus the VIN plate.
Heading south, West Alabama Sand & Gravel is 12.2 miles out and the Bankston Mine, an industrial-mineral operation, is 20.8 miles south-east, both per the Mine Safety and Health Administration. Owners whose trucks are kept at either site should tell us which one and name the person there who arranges access at the mine gate.
Log trucks, lowboys and freight carriers in Winfield
FMCSA’s carrier census lists 86 active carriers based in Winfield, and 27 of them declare logs, poles, beams and lumber as cargo, the same count that declares general freight. A log truck with its bunks and stakes still fitted is a whole unit to us, so photograph the trailer and loader along with the tractor.
Machinery and large objects show up on 17 carrier registrations in the federal carrier census, and farm supplies on 13. If your rig is a lowboy or a flatbed that moved equipment between Marion County farms, list the trailer’s own VIN and title separately from the tractor’s.
FMCSA’s carrier census logs a pair of Winfield authorities opened during 2025 and a single one during 2024. A newer authority selling its first truck needs the same things as a long-standing outfit: the title in the company’s name, current registration and a contact who can sign.
Intrastate haulers, private fleets and short-radius drivers
Seventy-three Winfield operators run intrastate only and 13 cross state lines, according to FMCSA’s carrier census. An Alabama-only truck carries an Alabama title and tag, so if the title is missing, ask the state’s title office for a replacement before collection.
The same FMCSA census counts 49 private fleets in town, meaning businesses hauling their own goods rather than freight for hire. A sawmill, farm or contractor selling one of its own trucks should have someone with signing authority named on the paperwork before we schedule pickup.
Drivers working within 100 miles number 156 on Winfield carrier filings, against 46 who go beyond that radius, as reported to FMCSA. Short-radius trucks tend to be parked at a yard or a home lot at night, so tell us which, and whether a trailer is hooked to it.
Inspection lane numbers
Officers pulled 51 Winfield-based trucks into roadside inspections from September 2024 to August 2026, and FMCSA roadside inspection records put their median model year at 2015 and two in three of them at ten or more model years old. Whatever year yours is, the cab card and the title should show the same VIN, so check that match before you call.
Thirteen Winfield operators filed annual mileage with FMCSA, and the middle figure among them works out to 16,667 miles for each truck. Read the odometer and send that figure with the VIN when you first contact us, since it is one of the first two things we will ask for.
The biggest fleets in Winfield run 16 power units with 15 drivers, and 11 power units each at the next two, on FMCSA’s carrier census. A fleet that size selling several units at once can send one list of VINs and yard addresses instead of a separate call for each truck.
Plant floors and pastures
Plants, contractors and farms in the county
Manufacturing accounts for 627 of the 2,690 jobs located in Winfield, or 23.3 percent, per the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts for 2023, while transportation and warehousing holds 90 and wholesale trade 57. Box trucks and tractors that served a plant dock are often parked on the plant’s own lot; let us know whether a guard or a shipping clerk has to clear our driver.
Nine building and site-work firms operate from Winfield, a figure taken from the Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns. A contractor’s dump truck or water truck that sits on a job site between projects can be collected there, as long as the site address and an on-site contact come with the request.
USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture records 612 farms in Marion County, with cattle, corn and soybeans as the leading products. A grain truck or cattle hauler kept at a farm out in the county is one we come out to; directions past the last paved road help.
The questions we get asked in Winfield
- Our dump truck never leaves the All Star pit by Winfield; will your driver come to that yard?All Star Sand & Gravel is 1.2 miles north-east of town on Mine Safety and Health Administration listings, and a truck parked at a pit that close is collected where it sits. Give us the site contact who controls the gate.
- I run a 2015 tractor out of Winfield; which papers and photos go with it?Winfield’s median model year on FMCSA roadside inspection records is 2015, so yours sits right at the local middle. Have the title, current registration, the odometer reading and photos of the cab, frame and tires ready when you contact us.
- Do you take the lowboy trailer along with the tractor?Machinery and large objects appear on 17 Winfield carrier registrations in FMCSA’s carrier census, and we take the trailer with the tractor. Send the trailer’s VIN and title alongside the tractor’s.
