Stanton is an Orange County city of 39,402 people by the Census Bureau’s figures, set between the Fullerton rail yard to the north-east and the Seal Beach naval sites to the south-west. Most of the trucks registered here stay inside California, hauling general freight, household moves and containers around the county.

Stanton carriers: mostly in-state, some private

Of the 262 active Stanton carriers in FMCSA’s carrier census, 235 keep to intrastate hauling and just 27 run across state lines. If your truck has stayed on California roads its whole working life, have the California registration card in the cab when we come for it, alongside the title.

Of those carriers, 61 are private fleets hauling their own goods, according to the same FMCSA census. A shop that owned one box truck or tractor for its own deliveries sells the same way an owner-operator does: one title, the business name matching the name on it, and someone who can sign for the company.

New registrations stay steady, with FMCSA recording 8 new Stanton carriers in 2025 and 7 in 2024. If you started up in one of those years and are now stepping back, the paperwork you filed to get your authority is a good place to find the VIN and the exact name on the title.

General freight, household goods and containers

General freight is the cargo listed by 71 Stanton carriers in the FMCSA census, ahead of household goods and intermodal containers at 13 each. A dry van tractor, a moving truck with its box, or a day cab set up for chassis work all fit what we buy here; send photos of the cab, the frame and the body or fifth wheel.

Driveaway and towaway operations account for 11 carriers on FMCSA’s list. If your truck has a tow bar, saddle mounts or a deck for hauling other vehicles, photograph that equipment too and say whether it comes with the truck.

The Bureau of Transportation Statistics places a rail intermodal ramp at Long Beach’s Pier G 12 miles west of Stanton. A container tractor parked near the harbour does not need to come back to town first; give us the yard address and the name of whoever controls the gate.

Short runs around the county

Stanton carriers report 1,151 drivers working within 100 miles of base and 274 driving beyond that, by FMCSA’s census. For a truck that spends its days on local routes, the likely pickup point is your yard, a driveway or a customer’s lot; tell us which, and whether a tow truck can reach it.

The median truck at the 36 carriers reporting mileage covered 12,800 miles a year, per the FMCSA census. Write down the odometer reading when you send the VIN, so the details we work from match the truck we collect.

Fleet size runs wide here: FMCSA lists the biggest Stanton operation at 1,127 power units and 811 drivers, then one at 112 power units and another at 69. A company retiring several units at once can send one list of VINs and yard locations, and we will plan the collections from it.

Trucks stopped at roadside

Between August 2024 and August 2026, inspectors stopped 291 trucks tied to Stanton, and the median model year among them was 2019, per FMCSA roadside inspection records. Have that model year, the make and the engine listed on the title or registration to hand when you first contact us.

In those same FMCSA roadside inspection records, about 32 percent of the trucks were ten or more model years old. Whatever the year, we ask for the same things: the title, the registration, any service records you kept and clear photos in daylight.

Rail at Fullerton, bases at Los Alamitos and Seal Beach

The North American Rail Network shows Fullerton Yard 5.6 miles north-east and the NWS Seal Beach yard 4.9 miles south-west. If your truck is parked at or near one of those yards, a site contact who can let us in matters more than anything else you send.

On the Energy Information Administration’s list, the Huntington Beach petroleum product terminal sits 6.7 miles south and the Orange terminal 7.3 miles east. Tank work around those sites leaves a record; keep any terminal inspection sheets with the truck so the history travels with it.

Two military installations are close, NG Los Alamitos JFTB 3.4 miles west and NAVWPNSTA Seal Beach 5.3 miles south-west, as the Bureau of Transportation Statistics records them. A truck kept on or beside a base needs access arranged ahead, so tell us early who can sign us in.

Building and factory work in Stanton

Construction holds 742 of Stanton’s 8,318 jobs in the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts for 2023, and manufacturing another 720. Dump trucks, flatbeds and stake beds from that work are trucks we take; send photos of the bed and any hoist alongside the cab.

County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau list 55 construction establishments in the area. If the truck is titled to a contracting business, bring the business’s details and an officer’s signature, and the sale closes in that company’s name.

The questions we get asked in Stanton

  • The truck sits a few miles off near Fullerton Yard; does it have to come into Stanton first?It can stay put, because Fullerton Yard is 5.6 miles north-east of Stanton on the North American Rail Network and we collect from the spot where the truck is parked; send the address and a gate contact.
  • The Stanton truck’s title has gone missing; where does a duplicate come from?California’s title agency issues duplicates for trucks registered in the state, where FMCSA’s census puts 235 of Stanton’s 262 carriers on intrastate work. Apply for the duplicate early and let us know the application is in, so the paperwork lines up with the pickup.
  • Our Stanton company is retiring several trucks; can one request cover all of them?One request covers the lot: FMCSA lists Stanton fleets ranging up to 1,127 power units, so send every VIN with its yard location in one message and we will set the collections from that list.
