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

Craig is a Moffat County town with Trapper Mine’s coal pits to the south-west and cattle and sheep ranches spread across the county around it. The trucks here haul gravel, coal-country machinery, hay and timber, and we buy them where they are parked.

Selling a truck in Craig? Tell us about it and we'll take it from there.

Coal and gravel

Trapper Mine and the wash plant east of town

The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists Trapper Mine, a coal mine, about 6 miles south-west of Craig. A dump truck, water truck or lowboy tractor that has served the pits out there can stay parked on the mine side of town; give us the gate it sits behind and the name of whoever can let a driver in.

Only 1.5 miles east, the 3B Wash Plant is recorded by the Mine Safety and Health Administration as a sand and gravel operation. Gravel haulers and end-dump tractors working between that plant and job sites around Moffat County are trucks we purchase, and for each one we ask for a VIN photo, a clear shot of the bed or trailer, and the current registration card.

If your truck has run mine-site routes, keep any site inspection sheets or safety check records you were handed at the gate. They tell us where the truck worked without a long phone call, and if you never kept them, simply describe the job instead.

Carriers registered in a Moffat County coal town

FMCSA’s carrier census shows 219 active motor carriers registered in Craig, and 94 of them list general freight among the cargo they carry. Machinery and large objects appear on 71 of those FMCSA registrations, and heavy-haul tractors with lowboys or step-decks are a kind of truck we collect.

Of those 219 carriers, the same federal census counts 171 operating intrastate only and 48 crossing state lines, while 124 run private fleets hauling their own goods. A rancher’s or contractor’s private truck sells the same way as a for-hire tractor: the title in the seller’s name, a photo of the odometer, and a phone number for whoever holds the keys.

New registrations keep arriving, with FMCSA recording 11 new carriers in Craig in 2024 and 9 more in 2025. If you started hauling recently and are now stepping back, a truck bought in the last couple of years with a lender still on the title can be sold too; tell us the lienholder’s name at the start.

From one-truck owners to fleets of twenty-plus

Craig’s top fleet on FMCSA’s census fields 23 power units and 32 drivers, the next 18 tractors with 68 drivers, and a third 15 units driven by 12 people. Selling several tractors from an operation that size works as one conversation: send a list of VINs with the unit numbers you use, and we arrange collection truck by truck from your yard.

Mileage reported to FMCSA by 42 carriers here works out to a median of 9,578 miles per truck per year. A truck that spends much of its time parked between seasonal jobs is welcome; just tell us where it sits and who holds the keys.

Ranch and timber

Hay, cattle and logs across Moffat County

USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 461 farms in Moffat County, with cattle, sheep and wool at the top of its list. Grain, feed and hay show up as cargo for 51 Craig carriers on FMCSA’s census, so flatbeds stacked with bales and livestock-hauling tractors are part of what moves here, and both are trucks we take.

Logs, poles, beams and lumber are listed by 49 carriers in town, according to FMCSA’s carrier census. A log truck parked out on a ranch road or at a timber landing does not need to come into Craig to be sold; send a map pin or directions from the nearest county road, and say whether the trailer goes with the tractor.

Construction, wholesale and freight work in Craig

Of the 3,210 jobs located in Craig during 2023, construction held 161 and wholesale trade 86, on the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts. Dump trucks, flatbeds and box trucks from those trades all come to us the same way: photos of each side, the VIN plate, and the title or a note on where it is.

County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau records 48 construction establishments, while the LEHD counts show 64 jobs in transportation and warehousing and 55 in manufacturing. If your truck belongs to a company rather than to you personally, have the person authorised to sign for the business ready when we confirm the sale.

Titles, inspections and Colorado’s truck rules

Sixty Craig-based trucks were stopped for roadside inspection between August 2024 and August 2026, FMCSA records show, and their median model year was 2015, with 51.7 percent at ten or more model years. Whatever its model year, bring the inspection report from your last roadside stop if you have it, since it confirms the VIN and the equipment on the truck.

Colorado’s Air Quality Control Commission lists its Advanced Clean Trucks Rule and Heavy-Duty Low NOx Rule as in force. Neither stops you selling a diesel tractor you already own, and if your title is lost, apply for a duplicate through the state’s title agency before we collect, or tell us and we will walk you through it.

Under the National Bridge Inventory kept by the Federal Highway Administration, Craig has 22 bridges, one of them load-posted and none under 14 feet of clearance. For a tall load or a heavy tractor that helps us route the collection truck; tell us the street the truck is on so we can plan the approach.
