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

USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 715 farms in Colusa County, with rice, cattle and wheat listed as its top products. A truck that has hauled harvest out of those fields may be sitting at a farm yard or a shop on a county road when you call, and that is where we pick it up. Name the farm road and the grower or foreman who can open that yard for us.

Of the 132 active carriers registered in Colusa on FMCSA’s carrier census, 24 list grain, feed and hay as cargo and 16 list farm supplies. If your tractor or straight truck pulled rice or feed for a grower, note which trailer went with it and whether that trailer is part of the sale. Photos of the hitch, the bed and the tires let us see the rig as it sits between seasons.

General freight is the largest cargo listing in town, with 47 Colusa carriers naming it on FMCSA’s carrier census, against 14 that list machinery and large objects. For a lowboy tractor or a flatbed rig that moved harvesters and tillage gear, send pictures of the deck, the ramps and the fifth wheel next to the cab shots, and tell us the trailer’s own VIN if it comes with the truck.

FMCSA’s carrier census shows 117 of the local carriers working intrastate only, 15 authorized for interstate work, and 42 operating as private fleets. A private fleet truck that hauled a farm’s or a business’s own goods sells the same way as a for-hire one: have the California title in the registered owner’s name and the current registration card ready to show us.

The three biggest fleets based in Colusa run 33, 21 and 17 power units, according to FMCSA’s carrier census, which lists 32, 9 and 8 drivers against them. If you are clearing several trucks from a yard of that size, send one list with each VIN, its title status and where each truck is parked, and we can look at all of them together.

Colusa added 8 carriers in 2025 after 4 in 2024, as FMCSA’s carrier census logs the newcomers. A carrier that started recently and is now selling a truck needs the same papers as a long-standing one, namely the title, the registration and the lienholder’s contact details if a loan is still open.

Drivers for Colusa carriers split between 162 working within 100 miles and 184 working beyond it, per FMCSA’s carrier census. If your truck spends the week away on long runs, tell us where it will be parked when it is home, or where it sits now if it is out of the county, and we will arrange the pickup there.

Among the 24 Colusa carriers reporting mileage on FMCSA’s carrier census, the median truck covers 28,955 miles a year. Read the odometer off the dash, photograph it, and include that shot with the VIN plate when you first reach out.

Roadside inspection records kept by FMCSA cover 127 trucks from Colusa inspected between September 2024 and August 2026, with a median model year of 2019. Send any inspection reports you kept from those stops along with the title.

Ten or more model years separate 27.6 percent of those 127 Colusa trucks from today, per the same FMCSA roadside inspection records. Whatever the year on your title, service invoices and the name of the shop that kept the truck on the road help us read its history alongside the photos.

The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts show 2,808 jobs in Colusa in 2023, of which 432, or 15.4 percent, sit in agriculture, forestry, fishing and hunting, and 182, or 6.5 percent, in wholesale trade. Trucks that served a packing shed, a feed store or a wholesale warehouse in town are likely parked at that business’s lot, so tell us whose property it is on before collection is set.

About 11.3 miles east of Colusa, the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists the Morehead Pit, a sand and gravel operation, and County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau counts 15 construction establishments locally. A dump truck or end-dump tractor that hauled aggregate from the pit can be collected at the pit gate or at a contractor’s yard; tell us which, and who can let us in.

• Our wheat and rice hauler sits on the farm past the Colusa city limits; does it have to come into Colusa?Colusa County’s 715 farms, counted in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, are where many local trucks stay between harvests, and we collect from the farm itself. Tell us which field road reaches the shed and who on the farm can meet us there.
• The California title for my Colusa truck is missing; who issues a new one?Trucks registered in Colusa carry a California title, and a duplicate comes from the state’s title agency. Start that request before we collect, and tell us when you first contact us that the title is on its way.
• Can I sell a truck that hauled gravel from the Morehead Pit?The Morehead Pit, which the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists 11.3 miles east of Colusa, is the kind of site a local dump truck works, and that truck is one we buy. Send its VIN, photos and where it is parked now.
