Riverside is a building town at the edge of the Inland Empire: construction is one job in eleven inside the city, more than manufacturing or the warehouses, and nearly four in five of the carriers based here work California only. The Arlington rail yard sits inside the city, March Air Reserve Base is next door, and the biggest fleet based here runs fewer than two hundred power units.
After general freight the cargoes its carriers declare most are fresh produce, refrigerated food and motor vehicles, so a Riverside yard holds a produce reefer, a mixer on a subdivision job, an intermodal tractor out of the Arlington yard, a car hauler, and the semi truck with a sleeper on the long lanes east. The county's dairies put a milk tanker in the mix.
Two DMV field offices inside the city do title work, 6280 Brockton Avenue and Riverside East at 6425 Sycamore Canyon Boulevard, for a duplicate title or a title transfer. The five-day notice of sale, the lien and the clean-truck rules are covered on the California page.
Heat and the grade are the Riverside wear: cooling system, belts and brakes before the drivetrain, and a mixer's drum and chute on top. Open the hood for the camera first, then walk the body, and tell us whether it worked the subdivisions, the yard or the highway.
No posted bridges, and Mount Rubidoux Drive
California holds the federal 80,000 pounds on the interstates and its own axle table on state roads, both on the California page. Riverside's own list is 81 bridges, none posted for load and one below fourteen feet, Mount Rubidoux Drive over Buena Vista Avenue at thirteen feet one, so a tandem mixer here reads the scale and one sign.
Tell us where the truck is in Riverside, by the Arlington yard, out toward March or up by Mount Rubidoux, and send photos and the title.
