Tandem dumps between two North Bay pits
Crushed stone leaves the San Rafael Rock Quarry, which sits 9.4 miles south-east of Black Point-Green Point in Mine Safety and Health Administration listings. Tandem dumps, transfer rigs and belly-dump tractors are the kind of equipment that hauls aggregate out of a pit like that, and we buy each of them. If yours sits at a job site rather than in a driveway, give us the gate address and the name of whoever holds the keys.
North-east of town, Napa Quarry appears in the same Mine Safety and Health Administration records as an industrial-mineral mine 16.8 miles away. A truck parked between the two pits can be collected wherever it stands; tell us which yard it calls home and send clear photos of the bed, the hoist and the cab so we know what equipment we are lifting.
North Bay Yard, West Chevron Yard and the Richmond terminals
NORTH BAY YARD lies 12.4 miles south-east of the Black Point shoreline on the North American Rail Network, which the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics maintain, and WEST CHEVRON YARD follows at 13.7 miles. Day cabs that shuttle between rail sidings and nearby plants are welcome here; have the registration card and the VIN plate photo ready before you call.
Across the bay, the Energy Information Administration places two petroleum product terminals in Richmond, RICHMOND CA TERMINAL at 14.5 miles and RICHMOND at 15.2. Tank tractors and fuel straight trucks that load at racks like these are on our list; site logs, inspection sheets and service records from those terminals help us understand where the truck has worked, so set them aside with the title.
Waterfront cargo
Ro-ro decks at Point Potrero across the bay
Richmond, CA appears in the Bureau of Transportation Statistics port listings at a distance of 14 miles from Black Point-Green Point, and the same agency records the Point Potrero Marine Terminal, a roll-on/roll-off berth, at 16.2 miles. Car haulers and flatbeds that move cargo off ro-ro decks fit what we purchase.
If your tractor runs out of a Richmond dock lot, it does not need to come home to Marin first. Send the lot’s street address, note any gate pass or escort the site requires, and add photos of both sides of the cab plus the odometer, and we plan collection at the port side.
Marin milk and cattle
Milk routes and cattle trailers on the Marin ranches
Marin County held 255 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, with milk, cattle and equine leading its sales. Bulk milk tankers, livestock haulers and the pickups that tow horse trailers are the vehicles those ranches keep, and each is one we will look at.
Ranch trucks often sit in a barn or a back pasture rather than on pavement, so tell us whether the ground is firm and whether a gate needs opening. A photo of the title, the current registration and the VIN taken in daylight is all we need to start.
A missing certificate and the Lost title
The State of California Department of Motor Vehicles runs its Novato field office at 936 7th Street A, Novato, 94947, just 3.3 miles from Black Point-Green Point by the department’s own office directory. That counter is where a seller here goes to apply for a duplicate title or record a transfer.
Bring a driver’s licence, the last registration you hold and any lienholder release if a loan was ever on the vehicle. Once the duplicate is in hand, or the application is filed, tell us and we can set the collection around it.
State regulations
Where California’s clean-truck rules stand today
The Advanced Clean Trucks Regulation remains in contest at the state level, a status Black Point-Green Point owners can note without changing plans. For the California Air Resources Board’s 2036 100 Percent Medium- and Heavy-Duty Zero-Emission Vehicle Sales Requirements, a federal court record shows enforcement on hold. Owners near Novato reading about these rules can still sell any diesel tractor or straight truck to us.
The Advanced Clean Fleets Regulation - Drayage Fleet Requirements and High Priority and Federal Fleets Requirements has been repealed, by the state’s own rulemaking notice. Drayage owners who run between the Richmond docks and Marin can sell whenever they choose, with the engine label photo and registration as the only rule-related items we ask for.
The questions we get asked in Black Point-Green Point
- Can you collect a dump truck that is parked at the quarry?The San Rafael Rock Quarry is 9.4 miles south-east by Mine Safety and Health Administration records, and we collect from yards like it once the site contact confirms access and the gate hours.
- If the pink slip for my Black Point-Green Point rig has gone missing, what is the nearest place to get another?The State of California Department of Motor Vehicles field office in Novato, at 936 7th Street A, is 3.3 miles from town according to the department’s office directory; apply for a duplicate there and let us know when it is filed.
- Do you buy milk tankers and livestock trailers from Marin ranches?Marin County’s 255 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture lead with milk, cattle and equine, and the tankers, stock trailers and tow rigs that serve them are all trucks we take.
- Does a tractor parked at a Richmond dock lot need to be driven back to Marin before pickup?Richmond, CA sits 14 miles away in Bureau of Transportation Statistics port listings, and we pick up where the truck is parked, so share the dock lot’s address and any gate requirements.
