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

Of the 952 active Lodi carriers on FMCSA’s carrier census, general freight shows up on 510 of their registrations. If your tractor pulled dry vans for one of those operations, have the title and current registration in hand before you call, and we can talk through the rest from there.

Fresh produce appears on 133 Lodi carrier registrations in the federal carrier census, with refrigerated food and meat at 89 each. For a reefer unit, tell us whether the trailer goes with the tractor, and send photos of the reefer’s hour meter alongside the cab and frame so we know exactly what is being sold.

According to FMCSA, 679 Lodi carriers run intrastate only, 270 cross state lines, and 204 operate as private fleets hauling their own goods. A truck that never left California still needs a clean title in the owner’s name; if the registration lapsed while it sat, say so up front and we will tell you what the transfer needs.

The North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, puts Lodi Yard 2.3 miles east of town and Mormon Yard 12 miles south. If your day cab is parked near either yard, give us the street address and the name of whoever controls the gate so collection can be arranged without you driving in.

Stockton’s port, listed by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics about 10.1 miles south of Lodi, is close enough that many drayage tractors here end up parked down that way. We pick up where the truck sits, so there is no need to bring it back north; a photo of the VIN plate and the odometer gets us started.

Two petroleum product terminals appear in Energy Information Administration listings south of Lodi: Shell Stockton Terminal at 11.6 miles and the Stockton terminal at 11.8 miles. A tractor that pulled fuel tankers into those sites should come with whatever load or site paperwork you kept, since it shows us where the truck worked.

Transload Solutions, a liquid bulk terminal the Bureau of Transportation Statistics places 12.5 miles south, rounds out the bulk sites near town. If the tank trailer is part of the sale, list its markings and send a photo of its data plate; if you are keeping the trailer, just tell us and we will collect the tractor on its own.

Milk heads the list of San Joaquin County’s farm products, followed by cattle and corn, across the 3,439 farms tallied in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture. Trucks hauling milk or livestock off those farms are often parked on the ranch itself, so give us directions to the yard and a phone number for whoever will be there on pickup day.

East of town, the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists Concrete, Inc DBA Knife River as a sand and gravel operation 14.9 miles from Lodi. The Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns counts 218 construction establishments in the area, and the LEHD job counts place 1,503 construction jobs in Lodi. A dump truck or mixer from that work sells the same way as a tractor: title, registration and photos of the body and chassis.

Among 1,164 Lodi-based trucks checked at the roadside between August 2024 and August 2026, FMCSA inspection records give a median model year of 2020, with 23.7 percent ten or more years old. Whatever the model year on your title, send the VIN first so we can match the truck to its records.

The median annual mileage reported by 276 Lodi carriers to FMCSA is 44,143 miles per truck. Have the current odometer reading ready, together with any service records you kept, and we can move straight to arranging collection.

• Will low bridges around Lodi get in the way of pickup?The National Bridge Inventory lists 16 bridges in Lodi, with none load-posted and none under 14 feet of clearance, so tell us the address and we plan the route from there.
