Pits below the hill
Mines and gravel operations close to town
The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists Cucamonga Creek Mine, an industrial-mineral mine, just 1.3 miles south-east of San Antonio Heights, and CAMPUS PLANT, a sand and gravel operation, 1.8 miles in the same direction. A dump truck or end-dump that shuttles between those sites and local jobs can be collected wherever it is parked between loads, whether that is a driveway on the hill or a lot near the pit gate. Give us that address and the VIN when you get in touch.
Further south-west, UPLAND PIT AND MILL appears in Mine Safety and Health Administration records as a sand and gravel operation 3.6 miles out, while Azusa Rock, a crushed-stone quarry, is 15.2 miles west on the same federal list. If your truck has hauled out of either one, have the title and current registration together, plus a few photos of the bed, the cab and the tires, so we can line the pickup up with what you send.
Builders on the slope
Construction carries a third of local jobs
Construction claims 122 of the 384 San Antonio Heights jobs that the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts recorded for 2023, close to a third of the local total at 31.8 percent. Contractors on that footing tend to run flatbeds, water trucks, dump bodies and small tractors, and any of those can be sold to us from the yard or the jobsite where it is parked.
With construction holding 31.8 percent of the local job total in the Census Bureau’s LEHD figures for 2023, a contractor here might be letting go of one truck or several at once. Write down each VIN, the body type and where each unit sits, and keep whatever service records you have in the cab; we can arrange one collection for trucks parked at the same yard.
Yards toward the valley
Hauling near the Montclair yard and S Kaiser Yard
MONTCLAIR, a rail yard 6.8 miles south, and S KAISER YARD, 10.4 miles south-east, both appear in the North American Rail Network kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. Day cabs and sleepers that move freight to and from rail yards like these are among the tractors we buy, and we come to the truck rather than asking you to bring it up the hill.
If your tractor has been working loads around the Montclair or Kaiser yards, tell us which yard and whether it is parked there or at home in San Antonio Heights. Send the odometer reading with the VIN, and note whether a trailer stays with the sale or is staying with you.
Terminal and naval detachment
Fontana fuel terminal and the Norco detachment
The Energy Information Administration lists FONTANA PLANT, a petroleum product terminal, 12.1 miles south-east of town. A tank truck or fuel tractor serving that terminal is one we can look at; have the registration ready and include photos of the tank, the cab and the chassis plate.
Sixteen point nine miles south sits Naval Weapons Station Seal Beach Detachment Norco, a military installation in Bureau of Transportation Statistics records. If your truck has carried loads to a federal site like this, any delivery logs or gate paperwork you kept can travel with the title; if you kept none, describe the work and we will ask what we need.
Milk, cattle, potted plants
Farm haulers from San Bernardino County dairies and nurseries
Milk leads the farm products of San Bernardino County in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, ahead of cattle and potted flowering plants, across 809 county farms. Milk tankers, livestock haulers and box trucks loaded with nursery stock all come out of farm work like that, and we buy each of those body types.
A farm truck from the 809 San Bernardino County operations in the USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture may be titled to a farm business rather than a person. Check whose name is on the title before you call, and if it has been lost, the state’s title agency is the office that issues a replacement.
Clean-truck measures
ACT, ACF and the zero-emission sales rule today
California’s clean-truck measures each sit in a different place right now: the Advanced Clean Trucks Regulation is contested, enforcement of the zero-emission sales requirement for medium- and heavy-duty trucks is paused under a federal district court record, and the Advanced Clean Fleets drayage and high priority fleet requirements have been repealed. None of those changes what you need to sell a truck to us from San Antonio Heights.
What we ask for is the same for a diesel tractor or a gravel dump truck: the title in your name, current registration, the VIN and photos taken in daylight. If the title shows a lienholder, tell us who holds it so the release can be part of the sale.
The questions we get asked in San Antonio Heights
- Will you collect a dump truck parked near the gravel pits below San Antonio Heights?CAMPUS PLANT and UPLAND PIT AND MILL are 1.8 and 3.6 miles away in Mine Safety and Health Administration records, and a truck parked at either one, or at home on the hill, can be collected where it stands. Give us the pit or street address together with the truck’s VIN.
- My crew does construction around San Antonio Heights; will you take a few of our trucks together?Construction accounts for 122 of the 384 jobs in San Antonio Heights in the Census Bureau’s 2023 LEHD job counts, and a contractor selling several units should list each VIN and where it is parked so the collection can be planned as one trip.
- Which office reissues a lost title for a truck garaged in San Antonio Heights?A title for a truck kept in San Bernardino County is replaced by the state’s title agency. File for the duplicate early and mention the pending request when you first reach us about the truck.
- Is a dairy or nursery truck from the wider San Bernardino County farm belt something you purchase?Milk, cattle and potted flowering plants lead the 809 San Bernardino County farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, and tankers, livestock haulers and nursery box trucks from that work are all trucks we purchase.
