We buy trucks in Oakley

Ugly ones welcome. Pretty ones too.

Dump trucks, farm trucks, flatbeds, day cabs, work trucks and pickups — whatever shape it’s in, as long as it’s all there. We come to you, or we buy it remotely and arrange the tow, and you are paid in cash or by electronic payment.

Have these ready and it goes faster

The keys
The thing people most often cannot find on the day.
Photos, all the way round
Every side, the whole interior including the odometer, and the engine from both sides.
A short video, if it runs
Thirty to sixty seconds of the engine running, hood open. The open hood is the part that makes it evidence.
A figure in mind
Have an idea in mind of about how much you want for your truck. It helps the process move faster.

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.

The yard

A yard named Du Point, and the spelling is the first clue

There is a rail yard 2.64 miles from the middle of town, worked by BNSF Railway Company in Contra Costa County, and the central list calls it the Du Point Yard. That name points at DuPont and the spelling is not the company’s. Whether DuPont has any current presence at this east Contra Costa County location was not determined.

So the name is treated here as a label off the source layer rather than as a fact about who is on the ground, which is the honest reading of a name nobody has checked. What is not in doubt is that a yard that size puts trucks on the roads around it: day cabs on short transload runs, flatbeds, and the service trucks that keep the place working.

Beyond that name and a coordinate, the record runs out

Those are the two fields there are. No facility-level source was found for the Du Point Yard, and what the central list holds for the district around it is county-level industry rather than anything about traffic through the gate. Turning one into the other would be inventing a figure, so this page does not.

There is a second gap worth naming, because it is one somebody out here might actually run into. The state rule set this project works from carries no agricultural weight provisions and no log-hauler exemption — both are absent from it and neither was determined. If you have been told a farm plate changes your weights, this page can neither confirm it nor deny it, and 2.64 miles from a BNSF yard in Contra Costa County is not the place to guess.

What runs here

Delta-edge work on the last of the farmland, and five towns with pages

So whatever you drive, the offer does not change — we buy all of them. Out on this edge that means farm trucks and grain hauls off what is left of the farmland, dump trucks and aggregate haulers off the building work that keeps taking it, flatbeds, day cabs on the transload runs, work trucks and service bodies, and pickups everywhere.

Brentwood is south and Antioch west, with Knightsen between them and Bethel Island and Discovery Bay out in the delta; all five carry pages of their own and all five sit in Contra Costa County. It is the same form whichever one you start on.

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. Out on the delta edge we can come to you and drive it away, come to you and tow it, buy it remotely and arrange the tow, or you can drive it to us. Payment is cash or electronic payment.
