Stone from Ojai Quarry, just north-west
Ojai Quarry, a crushed-stone operation, lies 2.8 miles north-west of Meiners Oaks on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s register of mines. Dump trucks, end-dumps and transfer rigs that carry stone off that site are trucks we purchase, and if yours is parked at the quarry yard, tell us who holds the gate key so the pickup can be planned with them.
A truck that only shuttles between the quarry and job sites around Ojai rarely leaves the valley, and it does not need to come down to the coast to be sold. Send the VIN, a photo of the door plate, and pictures of the bed, the hoist and the cab, and say whether it sits on a paved lot or a gravel pad.
Santa Paula Materials, a sand and gravel operation 14.3 miles south-east, also appears in Mine Safety and Health Administration records. Owners who split their hauling between that pit and the Ojai stone site often keep the truck at home in Meiners Oaks between loads; either address works, so give us the one where it is parked today.
For a tractor and a trailer kept apart, list both locations. Have the title, the current registration card and any service log from the cab ready, and if the title has gone missing, the replacement comes from the state’s title agency before the sale closes.
Down at the harbor
Oxnard, Port Hueneme and the rail yards to the south
Per the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, the Oxnard Harbor District port is 18.2 miles south, and the Port of Hueneme North Terminal, a roll-on/roll-off facility, sits 21.6 miles out beside a rail intermodal ramp at the same distance. Day cabs that pull chassis or car-carrier loads off those docks can be collected near the waterfront if that is where they are kept between shifts.
Oxnard Yard at 18.7 miles and Industrial Plaza Yard at 18.8 miles, both due south, are carried in the North American Rail Network kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. If your tractor has worked between those yards and the port, mention it when you write, and include photos of the fifth wheel and the tires along with the cab interior.
Naval Base Ventura County at Port Hueneme
Naval Base Ventura County’s Port Hueneme Operating Facility is 20.5 miles south of town, as listed by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. A truck that hauls onto a secured installation is usually parked off base when the owner sells, so give us a street address outside the gate rather than a location inside it.
Contractors who move freight to the base often run straight trucks and box vans as well as tractors. Tell us the body type, the axle setup and the VIN for each unit, and keep the registration for every one of them in the same folder as the titles.
Flatbeds, dump bodies and stake trucks used by small building outfits in the valley are welcome here, and a single-truck owner only needs the title, the registration and a few clear photos to start.
Ventura County holds 1,812 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, and its leading products are potted flowering plants, cut flowers and cultivated greens, and propagative material. Refrigerated box trucks and reefer trailers that carry nursery stock out of the county are part of what we buy; note the reefer unit’s make and hour meter reading with your photos.
Enforcement of the California Air Resources Board’s 2036 requirement for all medium- and heavy-duty sales to be zero-emission is paused under a federal court filing, and its Advanced Clean Trucks regulation is contested. Neither changes what to prepare: the title, the registration, and a clear set of photos of the truck as it stands.
