What the record says
A yard on the port corridor, and a corridor that carries passengers too
No facility-level source was found for the yard here. What is recorded is where it sits: on the corridor between the San Pedro Bay ports and the Inland Empire, which is the busiest freight run in this part of the state. Municipal truck rules differ across the several cities that corridor crosses and none of them were determined here.
The same line is a passenger line. The yard sits on the BNSF Orange County corridor, which carries heavy Metrolink and Amtrak service alongside freight, so grade crossings there are gated for passenger trains as well as for freight. Crossing counts and delay figures were not determined, so we will not put a number on what that costs a truck.
On this corridor, one piece of paperwork outranks the rest
That corridor is also what makes the drayage registry matter here more than it does on most pages. Internal-combustion drayage trucks had to be registered in the state system by 31 December 2023; from 1 January 2024 only zero-emission drayage trucks could be newly registered; and a grandfathered internal-combustion truck may run to at least 13 years from its engine model year, up to 18 years or 800,000 miles, whichever comes first.
The point for a seller is that the ability to work drayage attaches to the truck’s registry history rather than to its build date. A truck registered before the deadline carries something an otherwise identical truck cannot now be given, and the record travels with the vehicle and cannot be recreated. If yours has one, say so on the form.
Advanced Clean Fleets is moving the other way and is a separate instrument. The board voted on 25 September 2025 to repeal its drayage and high-priority fleet requirements, final action is due by 31 August 2026, and repeal is expected to take effect on 1 January 2027, with no enforcement action for conduct from 1 November 2023 until that final action. The repeal does not by itself undo the registry position.
What runs here
Corridor trucks, and five towns with their own pages
So whatever you drive, the offer does not change — we buy all of them. On the Orange County side of the corridor that means day cabs and road tractors, box trucks and straight trucks on distribution, flatbeds between the yards, dump trucks and aggregate haulers on the construction side, and pickups and work trucks everywhere.
Anaheim, Placentia, Buena Park, Brea and La Habra all carry pages of their own, and the truck does not have to be in any particular one of them for us to look at it.
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. In town we usually come to you and either drive it away or tow it; we also buy remotely and arrange the tow, and you can drive it to us. Payment is cash or electronic payment.
