Sell your semi truck for cash in Cabazon the easy and convenient way

The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists a sand and gravel operation named Cabazon just 1.9 miles west of town, and another, named Banning, 5.3 miles west. A truck that hauls from either pit can stay parked at the yard or beside your house when you sell; tell us whether it sits nearer Cabazon or Banning and who can let us in.

Farther out along the same westward line, CHANDLER AGGREGATES - GILMAN SPRINGS is a dimension-stone quarry 14.7 miles from Cabazon, according to MSHA records. Owners of dump trucks, transfer trailers or water trucks that have served quarry work there should send photos of the bed, the hoist and the cab, plus the VIN, so we know the exact build before we call back.

FMCSA’s carrier census shows 22 active carriers based in Cabazon, and none of the three biggest runs more than two power units. That makes most sellers here an owner-operator or a two-truck family business, so the person who answers our call is usually the person whose name is on the title; have that title close by when you reach out.

Of those carriers, FMCSA’s carrier census counts 15 that stay intrastate, 6 that cross state lines and 5 that operate as private fleets hauling their own goods. If your registration carries interstate apportioned plates, mention it, and keep the cab card with the truck so it travels with the rest of the documents at pickup.

New entries are steady but few: FMCSA’s census records four carriers that registered in Cabazon during 2024 and one in 2025. A truck bought for a business started in either year will often still be on its first title under the new owner, which keeps the transfer simple.

Ten Cabazon carriers list general freight as cargo in FMCSA’s census, while two each list household goods, motor vehicles and fresh produce. That spread means we see dry vans, car haulers, moving boxes and reefers from this town; name the body and trailer type in your first message so the right questions come back.

FMCSA’s carrier census splits Cabazon’s driver radius this way: twenty carriers have drivers working beyond a 100-mile radius and ten keep them inside it. A long-haul tractor may be sitting at a terminal or a truck stop far from Cabazon when you decide to sell, and we can arrange collection wherever it is parked once you give us the address.

Among the five Cabazon outfits that gave FMCSA a yearly mileage figure, the middle truck logged 90,000 miles. Write the odometer reading down along with the VIN when you contact us; those two numbers answer most of what we need to ask first.

Titles in this state come from the State of California Department of Motor Vehicles, and its closest DMV field office to Cabazon is the Palm Springs branch at 950 N Farrell Drive, Palm Springs, 92262, about 16 miles from town. If the title is missing, that is where a Cabazon owner can apply for a duplicate before the sale.

Bring your registration and photo identification to the Palm Springs counter, and if a lender once held a lien on the truck, carry the release letter too. With the title in hand, signed by every owner it lists, the handover at pickup is short.

The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts put 2,170 jobs in and around Cabazon in 2023, with wholesale trade holding 92 of them (4.2 percent) and manufacturing 66 (3 percent). Box trucks and straight trucks that deliver for wholesalers around Cabazon are the kind of vehicle we pick up; service invoices you have kept help us see how the truck has been looked after.

Cabazon’s area holds just three construction establishments, a figure from the Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns. Contractors who keep a dump truck, flatbed or stake-bed for site work can sell one unit and keep the rest; tell us which truck is going and where it is parked between jobs.

Around Cabazon, 2,424 farms were counted in Riverside County in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, with milk, mushrooms and cotton as its top products. Bulk milk tankers, refrigerated straight trucks and cotton haulers from those operations are trucks we buy; a farm truck parked on the property can be collected there.

If your truck is registered to the farm rather than to you personally, have the farm’s name exactly as it appears on the California title, plus whoever signs for the business, ready when we talk.

The California Air Resources Board’s Advanced Clean Trucks Regulation is listed as contested, and its Advanced Clean Fleets Regulation - Drayage Fleet Requirements and High Priority and Federal Fleets Requirements has been repealed, per CARB’s own rulemaking notice. Cabazon owners weighing a sale do not need to settle either question first.

A federal court record shows the state’s zero-emission sales requirement for medium- and heavy-duty trucks under a pause; enforcement is on hold. Your Cabazon truck is sold under the title and registration it carries today, whatever those rules do next.

• Can my dump truck be loaded right at the Cabazon sand and gravel pit?The MSHA-listed Cabazon sand and gravel operation is 1.9 miles west of town, and we can pick up at a pit like that. Send the name of whoever holds the pit gate key and when the operation lets visitors in.
• Which DMV counter replaces a missing California truck title for Cabazon owners?The State of California Department of Motor Vehicles field office at 950 N Farrell Drive in Palm Springs, about 16 miles from Cabazon, handles duplicate titles. Bring registration and ID.
• Will you buy from a Cabazon owner with only one or two trucks?Cabazon’s three biggest carriers on FMCSA’s census run two power units or fewer, so one- and two-truck owners are the usual seller here. We buy single trucks.
• Can my Cabazon-registered tractor be picked up while it is out on a long-haul route?Twenty of Cabazon’s FMCSA-registered carriers send drivers past a 100-mile radius, so trucks are often away from town. Name the truck stop or terminal holding it and the pickup is set there.
