General freight, machinery, refuse and coil from Englewood
Of the 598 active Englewood motor carriers on FMCSA’s census, 229 put general freight on their cargo list when they register. If your box truck or tractor spent its days on that kind of mixed delivery, have the title and current Colorado registration together before you call us, along with the VIN.
In the carrier census kept by FMCSA, 122 local carriers haul heavy machinery and 62 haul refuse and trash. Lowboys, rollbacks, roll-off hoists and rear loaders all fit those lines. Tell us the body type and any attached equipment, such as a hook lift or a packer body, so we bring the right gear for collection.
Metal sheets, coils and rolls are hauled by 56 carriers here, per the same FMCSA census. Flatbed tractors and their coil-rack trailers can be sold together or apart; say which you intend so we photograph and plan for the right pieces.
Colorado routes and in-house hauling
Of Englewood’s carriers on the FMCSA census, 551 run intrastate and only 47 cross state lines, while 445 operate as private fleets hauling their own goods. A contractor’s dump truck or a supplier’s stake bed often sits at the shop or jobsite rather than a terminal, so give us the street address where it is parked.
Driver radius figures filed with FMCSA put 1,899 drivers working within 100 miles of base against 612 going farther. Wherever your truck ends its shift, whether a yard, a driveway or a lot in Englewood, that is where we collect it.
Among 65 Englewood carriers that report annual mileage to FMCSA, the median works out to 11,250 miles per truck. Have the odometer reading ready when you reach out; it is one of the first figures we ask for.
Englewood model years on the roadside record
Between August 2024 and August 2026, inspectors stopped 255 trucks run by Englewood-based outfits, and FMCSA roadside inspection records put their median model year at 2022. Bring the model year and engine details with your first message so we can match the truck to the right paperwork.
Roughly 18 percent of those 255 Englewood units carried a model year a decade or more back, per the same roadside inspection records. Whatever year yours is, the steps stay the same: title in the owner’s name, registration, and photos of the cab, the frame and the plate on the door.
If your rig went through a roadside inspection, keep that report with the title. It is a federal record of where the truck was and when, and it saves you describing that history from memory.
Builders, plants and distributors in Arapahoe County
Construction holds 3,242 of Englewood’s 26,580 jobs in the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts for 2023, a 12.2 percent share, and County Business Patterns lists 299 construction establishments in town. Dump trucks, water trucks and flatbeds from these firms can be collected straight from a site; tell us whether a loader or a gate code is needed to reach it.
Manufacturing accounts for 2,444 jobs and wholesale trade for 1,706, according to the same 2023 LEHD figures from the Census Bureau. Delivery straight trucks and reefer units that serve those plants and distributors are trucks we purchase; note any lift gate or refrigeration unit when you describe yours.
Transportation and warehousing employs 842 people here in the Census Bureau’s LEHD counts, while County Business Patterns shows just 5 warehousing establishments. If your truck is parked at a warehouse dock rather than at home, let us know who can release it on the day we arrive.
Rail yards, ramps and terminals north of town
The Bureau of Transportation Statistics places the Denver intermodal ramp 8.9 miles north of Englewood and the Irondale ramp 10.4 miles north. Day cabs that pull containers from those ramps can be picked up wherever they are parked between loads.
According to the North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, the 31st Street yard lies 8.6 miles north and the Pullman yard 9 miles north. Drayage tractors working those yards often carry port and rail access stickers; leave them on, and mention them so we know the truck’s route.
Two petroleum product terminals listed by the Energy Information Administration sit 10 and 10.8 miles north of the city. A fuel or asphalt tanker should come with its tank inspection paperwork, which belongs with the title when the truck changes hands.
Quarry hauling and Arapahoe County farms
Amrize Morrison Quarry, a crushed-stone operation recorded by the Mine Safety and Health Administration, is 10.6 miles west of Englewood. End dumps and belly dumps that hauled from it can be photographed at the quarry lot or at home, whichever is easier for you.
USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 607 farms in Arapahoe County, with cattle, wheat and horses as the leading lines. Grain trucks, livestock haulers and horse trailers off those farms qualify; keep the title and any brand inspection or farm plate paperwork together.
Of Englewood’s 16 bridges in the National Bridge Inventory, a single one carries a posted load limit, and not one has clearance below 14 feet. If your truck is parked past the load-posted bridge, mention it so we plan the collection route around it.
Clean-truck rules in force in Colorado
Colorado’s Air Quality Control Commission lists its Advanced Clean Trucks Rule as in force under the state’s Clean Cars and Trucks Regulation. Part E of that Colorado regulation, the Heavy-Duty Low NOx Rule, is listed as in force by the commission too.
When you sell a diesel truck in Englewood, have the emissions label on the engine visible in your photos, and include any emissions paperwork you kept, so the file is complete.
