Rail at the doorstep

Three rail sites within four miles of Rowland Heights

The North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, places Rowland Yard 2.8 miles north-west of Rowland Heights and the COI Intermodal Terminal Yard 3.7 miles out on the same heading. A day cab that shuttles boxes between those two yards can usually stay parked near them when you sell; give us the street address and the name of whoever controls the lot gate.

Just 3.6 miles north-west, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics lists the Los Angeles - City of Industry intermodal ramp. FMCSA’s carrier census shows 107 carriers based in Rowland Heights that list intermodal containers as cargo, so a drayage tractor sold from here often turns up with a chassis or a port pass history; tell us whether the chassis goes with the tractor or stays with the yard.

Dry vans, moving vans and reefers on the local carrier rolls

There are 914 active carriers in Rowland Heights on FMCSA’s carrier census, and 612 of them name general freight. If your truck pulled dry vans for one of them under your own authority, have the title in your name and the current California registration card ready before we talk.

Smaller cargo groups show up as well: 42 local carriers move household goods and 41 haul refrigerated food, according to the same FMCSA census. A moving box truck or a reefer unit sells the same way as a tractor; photograph the body, the liftgate or the refrigeration unit along with the cab so we see the whole vehicle.

Of those registrations, FMCSA records 550 as intrastate and 363 as interstate, with 129 listed as private fleets that carry their own goods. A private fleet selling one unit should send the title holder’s name and an authorised contact, since the person handing over keys is often not the person who signs.

Inspected trucks, their model years and yearly mileage

Of the 799 Rowland Heights trucks stopped for roadside checks from 2024-08-28 to 2026-08-27, FMCSA roadside inspection records give 2019 as the median model year and 14.5 percent as ten or more years old. Whatever the year of yours, the VIN and the odometer reading are the first two things to send us.

Across 318 local carriers that report mileage, FMCSA’s census puts the median at 72,686 miles per truck each year. Keep service records and inspection reports together in one folder and send them with the photos.

Driver counts filed with FMCSA split 994 working within 100 miles of base and 1,193 working beyond it. Long-haul sleepers may be sitting at a terminal far from Rowland Heights when you decide to sell, and that is fine; tell us the city and yard where the truck is now.

Wholesale, warehousing and building jobs

The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts (LODES) list 10,545 jobs in Rowland Heights for 2023, with 641 in wholesale trade and 585 in transportation and warehousing. Straight trucks and tractors working distribution routes around those employers can be collected from the warehouse dock if the owner of the dock agrees.

Construction holds 323 of those LEHD jobs and manufacturing 353, while County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau counts 78 construction establishments and 29 warehousing establishments here. Dump trucks, flatbeds and stake beds from contractor yards need the same papers as any tractor: title, registration, and photos of the bed and the frame.

Aggregate pits and fuel terminals within a dozen miles

Two sand and gravel operations on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list sit north-west of town: Durbin Plant at 10.1 miles and Irwindale Aggregates at 10.8 miles. A transfer dump or end dump that hauls out of those pits can be picked up at the yard where it overnights; send a photo of the bed and the hydraulic hoist with your message.

For liquid loads, Savage Service Corp is a liquid bulk terminal 9.7 miles west on the Bureau of Transportation Statistics list, and the Energy Information Administration records the ORANGE petroleum product terminal 11.2 miles south. Tanker tractors from those runs should come with the trailer’s paperwork separated from the tractor’s, so it is clear which unit is being sold.

The questions we get asked in Rowland Heights

  • Will you collect a drayage tractor parked beside the City of Industry ramp instead of at my home in Rowland Heights?The Bureau of Transportation Statistics places that ramp 3.6 miles north-west of Rowland Heights, so the tractor can stay put; we arrange the pickup at the yard with whoever runs the gate.
  • Do California’s clean truck rules stop me selling a drayage tractor from Rowland Heights?The Air Resources Board lists the Advanced Clean Fleets drayage and high priority fleet requirements as repealed, and a federal court filing records enforcement of the zero-emission sales requirement as paused. Tell us the engine model year on the label so we can look at your tractor directly.
  • My Rowland Heights truck has no title in hand; where does a replacement come from?California’s title agency issues duplicate titles for vehicles registered in Los Angeles County. Start the duplicate request before we schedule collection, and send us the receipt so we know it is underway.
  • Will you take a nursery box truck or a horse rig from a Los Angeles County farm?A Rowland Heights grower or horse owner is one of 766 Los Angeles County farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, where potted flowering plants, mushrooms and equine lead the county’s list. Nursery box trucks and horse-hauling rigs from those operations are trucks we buy; send the title, registration and photos.
