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

The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists PLANT 25, a sand and gravel operation, 2.8 miles north-west of Hollister, and Southside Sand And Gravel 5.5 miles to the south-east. A dump truck or end-dump tractor that shuttles between those two pits can be collected right where it is parked; give us the pit or yard address and the name of whoever holds the gate key.

Farther out, VINEYARD ROCK sits 12.2 miles south of town and A R Wilson Quarry 13.4 miles west, both crushed-stone quarries on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s register. If your truck is kept at either quarry, ask the site office whether an outside driver needs an escort or a safety briefing, and pass that along when you contact us.

Marina Landfill, an industrial-mineral mine 23.3 miles south-west according to MSHA, is the farthest site on that list from Hollister. Owners hauling there can send photos of the bed, the cab and the VIN plate taken on site, so the paperwork and pictures arrive together.

GILROY YARD lies 13.8 miles north-west of Hollister, and WATSONVILLE YARD 18.7 miles west, on the North American Rail Network kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. A tractor that has worked loads to and from those yards does not have to come back into town before it is sold.

Keep the registration card and any service records in the cab if the tractor is parked near either yard. Tell us which lot it is on and who manages it, and the pickup gets arranged with them directly.

FMCSA’s carrier census counts 500 active carriers based in Hollister, and 459 of them operate intrastate against 41 interstate. For a seller, that usually means a California title and California registration, so have both ready with the name on the title matching the seller.

Of those carriers, 189 list general freight, 55 list fresh produce, 29 list garbage and refuse, and 28 list machinery and large objects, according to the same federal census. Produce reefers, roll-off and refuse trucks, and lowboy or heavy-haul tractors all fit what we buy here.

Private fleets make up 142 of the city’s active carriers in the FMCSA figures. A contractor or grower selling a truck it ran for its own goods should bring the title, the registration and whoever is authorised to sign for the business.

The biggest three fleets in town report 65, 47 and 31 power units on FMCSA’s carrier census. Owners selling several units at once can send one list of VINs and locations, and we work through them truck by truck.

FMCSA’s carrier census has mileage from 116 Hollister carriers, and their median truck logs 29,613 miles a year; put your own odometer reading in the first message along with the VIN.

Roadside inspection records from FMCSA cover 410 trucks inspected between September 2024 and August 2026; their median model year is 2019, and 31.7 percent are ten or more model years old. Whatever the model year, a clear photo of the door sticker and the VIN plate settles the details.

The carrier census shows 22 new carriers registered in Hollister in 2024 and another 22 in 2025. A new operator selling a first truck needs the same things as an established one: title, registration, photos and a way to reach the truck.

The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts for 2023 place 10,885 jobs in Hollister, with 1,226 in manufacturing, 726 in construction, 445 in transportation and warehousing, 432 in agriculture and 256 in wholesale trade. Flatbeds, box trucks and dump trucks from any of those trades are trucks we buy.

County Business Patterns, also from the Census Bureau, lists 175 construction establishments and 4 warehousing establishments. If a truck belongs to a construction business, have the company’s name on the title match the person signing.

USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 539 farms in San Benito County, led by cattle, equine and sheep operations. Livestock haulers and ranch trucks parked on a farm road can be collected there; tell us how the gate opens and where the truck sits on the property.

• My dump truck lives at a gravel pit outside Hollister, so does it have to come into town first?Leave it parked beside the San Benito County gravel it hauls. The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists PLANT 25 at 2.8 miles and Southside Sand And Gravel at 5.5 miles from town, and we collect from sites like those. Give us the address and a contact who can let a driver in.
• My tractor sits on a lot beside the Gilroy rail yard; will you pick it up from there?We will collect it on that lot. Gilroy Yard is 13.8 miles north-west of Hollister on the North American Rail Network, and the truck can be picked up where it stands, so tell us the lot and who manages it.
• Which papers does a Hollister seller gather for a California-plated truck?With 459 of Hollister’s 500 active carriers operating intrastate on FMCSA’s census, most trucks here carry California paperwork: have the title, the registration, the VIN, the odometer reading and a few photos.
