Arizona's trucks haul rock, metal and produce across a lot of empty road. In FMCSA's October 2026 census, close to 32,000 carriers give an Arizona address, and about seven in ten of them are registered for in-state work only. One in three is a private fleet. Four and a half thousand of them carry machinery and large objects, close to four thousand carry motor vehicles, more than three thousand carry fresh produce, three thousand carry metal, and three thousand carry logs, poles and lumber. So the Arizona truck is as likely to be a heavy-haul tractor moving a shovel at Morenci as a reefer with produce coming up from Nogales, a semi truck with a sleeper on I-10, a dump truck loading at a pit on the west side of Phoenix, a tanker that filled at Tolleson, the water truck on a Tucson job, or the box truck a business runs on its own deliveries.
Where the work is: containers go onto rail at Glendale on the Phoenix side and at Tucson, and the yards at Phoenix, Tucson, Winslow, Nogales, Yuma, Parker, Tolleson and Lower Miami take the carloads. Cement comes out of Clarkdale, Rillito and Drake at Paulden, rock out of the quarries at Rillito, Douglas, Willcox, Show Low, Mesa, Anthem, Apache Junction, Superior, Flagstaff, Williams, Chloride and Mayer, and there are 98 sand and gravel pits in the towns our data covers, from the Phoenix west side and Sun City to Casa Grande, Prescott, Prescott Valley, Fountain Hills, Kingman, Bullhead City, Sierra Vista, Safford and Rio Rico. The metal mines are at Morenci, Miami and Claypool, Silver Bell, Sahuarita, Bagdad, Green Valley, Hayden, Pinto Valley, Safford and Dragoon, with the Gold Road mine at Oatman, the Moss mine at Bullhead City and gypsum at Camp Verde. The racks at Tolleson, Glendale, Litchfield Park and Paradise Valley around Phoenix, at Tucson and at Flagstaff fill the tankers. The military is a big fleet owner here, twenty installations in our data: Luke outside Glendale, Davis-Monthan at Tucson, Fort Huachuca at Sierra Vista, the proving ground and the Marine air station at Yuma, Camp Navajo at Bellemont and the Goldwater range west of Gila Bend. Cattle are the top farm product in eight of Arizona's fifteen counties in USDA's 2022 census, with cotton and wheat leading two each and corn, milk and sheep one apiece, so the cattle hauler and the cotton truck belong on this list too. Name the town and say whether you'd like us to come out for it, buy it from where it sits, or have you drive it in.
MVD, a third-party office, or online
Titles in Arizona come from ADOT's Motor Vehicle Division, and a duplicate comes from an MVD office or an authorized third-party office, a private business that charges a convenience fee for the same work, with some title work going through the AZ MVD Now account online. The MVD offices are at 4005 North 51st Avenue, 20626 North 26th Avenue and 221 East Olympic Drive in Phoenix, 16380 North 59th Avenue in Glendale, 4123 East Valley Auto Drive in Mesa, 50 South Beck Avenue in Chandler, 3565 South Broadmont in Tucson, 1959 South Woodlands Village Boulevard in Flagstaff and 2165 East Gila Ridge Road in Yuma. Arizona gives a buyer fifteen days from the purchase to apply for the title, so once the truck changes hands that clock is ours. Order the duplicate, then write to us; the two go along together.
Clear the lien first if there is one; that's what takes the time. Arizona brands a title salvage with no percentage test, flood damage included, so if yours reads that way, say so in the first message and we carry on.
The tolerance is inside the number
Arizona writes its axle figure differently from most states: section 28-1100 of the Revised Statutes sets 20,000 pounds on a single axle with the enforcement tolerance already inside that number rather than added on top. Alabama writes it the same way, where Georgia, Kentucky and Florida each publish a base figure and then allow something over it. That's the figure your truck was weighed against, and it matters to the scale house, not to us. A belly dump that ran the mine roads at the limit, a water truck, a heavy-haul tractor that moved on permits, a dually that never saw a scale: one conversation, one offer.
Send the year, make, model and VIN with a set of photos, a photo of the title, and the town. Sleeper, day cab, heavy-haul tractor, dump truck, roll-off, mixer, garbage truck, wrecker or rotator, log truck, tanker, boom or crane truck, box truck, straight truck, utility truck, pickup or dually: whichever one it is, that message brings an offer.
