California carries freight at every scale. Cement plants sit at Victorville, Tehachapi and Mojave, flour mills at Fresno, Colton and Commerce, and quarries across the state.
We buy all of it, which is why we don't pick a lane. A well-kept Freightliner off a Fontana lane, a Kenworth day cab out of Oakland, a Volvo sleeper out of Fresno or a GMC dually out of Bakersfield get the same treatment: send us photos and details, an offer comes back, and if you like it we can come to you, buy it remotely, or you can drive it to us.
In California the statutory range weight limit is 34,000 – 80,000 lb depending on axle count and spacing (CVC §§ 35550–35558). In California the interstate weight limit is 80,000 lb GVW · 20,000 single axle · 34,000 tandem (23 U.S.C. § 127). In California the two consecutive tandem sets weight limit is 34,000 lb each if the distance between first and last axle of the sets is ≥ 36 ft; neither set over 34,000; the pair not over 68,000 (CVC § 35551).
In California, a wrecked, destroyed or damaged vehicle counts as a total loss salvage vehicle when its owner, leasing company, financial institution or insurer considers it uneconomical to repair and it is consequently not repaired by or for the owner (CVC § 544). In California the seller's notice of transfer deadline is within five calendar days of the sale or transfer, in which the owner must notify the department (CVC § 5900(a)). In California the salvage certificate filing deadline is within 10 days of the settlement of the loss, in which the endorsed certificate of ownership and the plates go to the department (CVC § 11515(a)).
