Colorado Springs is a military town with a construction trade to match. Fort Carson, Peterson and Schriever ring the city, and construction employs twelve thousand people inside it, more than manufacturing or the warehouses. Nearly nine in ten of the carriers based here stay inside Colorado, which makes this a local-haul town.
A Colorado Springs yard holds a machinery hauler running equipment on and off the posts, a flatbed with lumber, a garbage truck and a dump truck working the Daniels pits at Stratmoor. A tanker fills at the Fountain rack, and the odd semi truck with a sleeper works the interstate north and south.
Lost title in Colorado Springs
El Paso County issues titles at three offices in the city. They are the Citizens Service Center at 1675 West Garden of the Gods Road, the Powers branch at 5650 Industrial Place and Union Town Center at 8830 North Union Boulevard. A duplicate title or a title transfer goes through any of them.
A Springs truck climbs for a living, so the turbo, the cooling and the brakes carry the story. Photograph the engine bay and the brake drums before the body, and tell us whether it ran the posts, the jobsites or the interstate.
Weight limits in Colorado Springs
Colorado Springs has 283 bridges inside the city, three with a load posting and none under fourteen feet, so a lumber flatbed here reads the grade, not the sign. For the limits themselves, Colorado's and the federal table, a Colorado Springs seller reads the Colorado page.
Tell us where the truck is in Colorado Springs, near Fort Carson, out by Peterson or up on the north end, and send photos and the title.
