We buy trucks in Cazadero

Ugly ones welcome. Pretty ones too.

Log trucks, timber rigs, dump trucks, flatbeds and pickups — whatever shape it’s in, as long as it’s all there. We buy it remotely and arrange the tow, or we come to you, and you are paid in cash or by electronic payment.

Have these ready and it goes faster

The keys
The thing people most often cannot find on the day.
Photos, all the way round
Every side, the whole interior including the odometer, and the engine from both sides.
A short video, if it runs
Thirty to sixty seconds of the engine running, hood open. The open hood is the part that makes it evidence.
A figure in mind
Have an idea in mind of about how much you want for your truck. It helps the process move faster.

We buy complete trucks. If the engine, transmission, doors, rear ends, drive shafts, wheels or anything under the hood have been removed, we can’t buy it. A missing bumper is nothing.

The operation

Six people, five miles out, in the redwood country

MSHA records 6 employees at Diamond T Natural Resources, whose coordinates lie 4.90 miles from the centroid of this place. That is back-country stone and timber ground, reached by roads that were not built for what uses them.

An operation that size in country like this runs older equipment longer, because getting a replacement in is its own problem. Those trucks tend to be well known to their owners and worth describing carefully when they are sold.

That road out of here has a name and a number

Those roads are not clear, and unusually we can tell you exactly which one binds. Of the 131 structures within ten miles, three are coded below legal loads and all three are county maintained — the binding one being the record carrying Old Cazadero Road, 4.81 miles out, with a commercial floor of 16.8 metric tonnes.

Sonoma County maintains 322 bridges, the largest county-maintained inventory in its measurement batch, and posts nine of them. Every restriction near every one of the four Sonoma operations measured is one of those nine, which makes the county the tier worth telephoning about a posting here.

What runs here

Timber, stone, and a rule nobody extracted

So whatever you drive, the offer does not change — we buy all of them. West Sonoma County is timber and stone ground, so log trucks and timber rigs work it alongside the Diamond T Natural Resources dump trucks, flatbeds moving plant, and pickups and work trucks everywhere.

One rule we cannot quote at you: California publishes a log-hauler exemption and it is not extracted into the state rule file we work from. Not extracted is not the same as does not exist, and in redwood country it is the rule most likely to matter. Guerneville and Healdsburg carry pages of their own.

California weight law

The weight table here is not the federal one

That is state law rather than anything local, and it is the rule truck sellers misquote most often. CVC sections 35550 to 35558 set a statutory range of 34,000 to 80,000 lb by axle count and spacing, and § 35551(a) is a table rather than the federal Bridge Formula — no formula is declared in the statute at all.

The California table does not exactly match the Federal Bridge Table, including at three and four axles. So a configuration that is legal under one can be over under the other, and “it makes bridge formula” is a claim about which table you mean. If someone has told you your truck makes it, that is worth knowing before you repeat it.

Questions we actually get

The four that come up every time

Does it have to run? No. But we buy complete trucks — if the engine, transmission, doors, rear ends, drive shafts, wheels or anything under the hood have been removed, we can’t buy it. A missing bumper is nothing.

Do I need the title? We need a title, unless the truck is old enough that it never had one. If it is lost, that is a replacement through the DMV and we will walk you through it. If there is a lien on it, say so on the form — that is why the question asks whether the title is in hand rather than whether you own the truck, because those are different situations and they go different ways.

What if it has been in a wreck? Tell us what happened and we will look at it as it is. California sets no percentage: CVC § 544 makes it a judgement about whether repair is economical, so nothing is decided by a formula before we have seen the truck.

How does it get collected, and how am I paid? There is no clock on any of this. Out here the common one is that we buy it remotely and arrange the tow, so the sale does not wait on anybody driving out. We also come to you and drive it away, come to you and tow it, or you drive it to us. Payment is cash or electronic payment.
