Sell your semi truck for cash in Tiburon the easy and convenient way

FMCSA’s carrier census shows 13 active carriers based in Tiburon, and 12 of them are registered for intrastate work only, with none listed as interstate. If yours is one of those California-only rigs, have the title and the current California registration together before you call, since those two papers are what we read first.

Among the cargo types those Tiburon carriers declare to FMCSA, 2 list general freight, 1 lists machinery and large objects, and 1 lists passengers. A box truck, a lowboy tractor or a small bus all fit what we collect; send the VIN and a few clear photos of the cab, the frame and the body, and say which of those loads the vehicle carried.

Two of the 13 Tiburon carriers in the FMCSA census are private fleets, hauling their own goods rather than freight for hire. A company-owned truck usually has service records kept by the business, so ask whoever keeps the books to pull them, along with proof of who signs for the company on the title.

The Energy Information Administration lists two petroleum product terminals under the Richmond name, one 5 miles north-east of Tiburon and one 5.4 miles east. A tractor that has pulled tank trailers into those gates may be parked over there between loads; give us the street address and a name to call at the gate so collection can be arranged on site.

Rail sits right beside them: the North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration with the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, places West Chevron Yard 5.3 miles north-east of town and Richmond Yard at 5.8 miles. Drayage tractors that shuttle between those yards and the terminals can be sold from wherever they stand, so you do not have to bring one back across the bridge to Marin.

Point Potrero Marine Terminal at the Port of Richmond, a roll-on/roll-off facility, is 5.4 miles east on the Bureau of Transportation Statistics list. If your truck works the vehicle docks there, tell us the gate and any badge rules, and keep the registration card in the cab for the driver who comes to load it.

San Francisco Port lies 7.6 miles south of Tiburon and the port of Richmond 7.2 miles north-east, both entries from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. A container chassis puller based on the peninsula could be sitting at either waterfront when you decide to sell; tell us which one and we plan the pickup there.

To the north, the Mine Safety and Health Administration records San Rafael Rock Quarry, a crushed-stone operation 6.7 miles from town. Dump trucks and end-dump tractors that hauled out of that pit are trucks we buy; photograph the bed, the hoist and the tires as well as the cab, and note the axle setup in your message.

According to the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts for 2023, Tiburon held 1,935 jobs, and 105 of them, or 5.4 percent, were in construction. Contractors’ pickups with dump bodies, flatbeds and small cranes are part of what we purchase, and a job-site truck can be collected from the yard or the site where it is parked.

Tiburon’s 21 construction establishments, as tallied in the Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns, range from builders to site crews. If your truck belongs to one of those businesses, the registered owner on the California title must match whoever signs the sale, so check the name on it before we talk.

Marin County had 255 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, and milk, cattle and equine products led its farm sales. Milk haulers, livestock trucks and horse-trailer tractors from those ranches are welcome; send photos and the VIN, and tell us which ranch road the truck is parked off.

Ranch vehicles in west Marin are often parked far from a paved yard. Give us directions to the barn or gate, whether a trailer or tow vehicle can reach it, and whether the title is in the ranch’s name or a family member’s, and we plan around it.

For a drayage tractor working between Tiburon and the Richmond yards, the California Air Resources Board shows its Advanced Clean Fleets drayage and high-priority fleet requirements repealed, with Advanced Clean Trucks still contested. For a Tiburon owner, that means the sale rests on the ordinary papers: title, registration and the VIN.

A federal court record from the Eastern District of California shows enforcement of the 2036 rule requiring all new medium- and heavy-duty sales to be zero-emission is paused. Whatever powers your truck, diesel or otherwise, we collect it in Marin or across the bay in the same way.

• My tractor sits by the Richmond fuel terminals rather than in Tiburon; will you pick it up from over there?The Richmond petroleum terminals on the Energy Information Administration list sit 5 to 5.4 miles from Tiburon, and we collect the tractor where it stands. Pass along the terminal street address plus whoever holds the gate key.
• The title to my Marin-registered truck is missing; how do I sell it?California’s title agency issues duplicate titles to the registered owner, so request a replacement there and tell us when you contact us; we can start on the truck’s details while the duplicate is on its way.
• Do you buy dump trucks from the San Rafael quarry area?San Rafael Rock Quarry, 6.7 miles north of Tiburon according to the Mine Safety and Health Administration, is close enough that we collect trucks working it from the pit yard or your home.
