General freight, lumber and moving vans out of Highlands Ranch

FMCSA’s carrier census lists 226 active carriers based in Highlands Ranch, and 83 of them declare general freight as a cargo. If your box truck or tractor ran general loads around the south metro, have the title and current Colorado registration together before you contact us, since those two papers start every purchase.

Machinery and large objects appear on 32 of those registrations in the FMCSA carrier census, household goods on 28, and logs, poles, beams and lumber on 26. A flatbed, lowboy or moving van from one of these trades is a truck we buy; send photos of the deck or the body along with the cab so we can see the whole rig.

Of the 226 Highlands Ranch carriers, 184 are intrastate only, 42 are registered for interstate work, and 127 run as private fleets hauling their own goods, according to FMCSA. If your truck belonged to a company fleet rather than a for-hire carrier, tell us who holds the title; that signer is the person we need on the paperwork.

A 2023 median model year and three sizable fleets

Roadside inspection records from FMCSA covering 140 trucks tied to Highlands Ranch carriers, inspected between September 2024 and August 2026, show a median model year of 2023, with 7.1 percent ten or more years old. Whatever year yours is, give us the VIN first; it tells us the exact build.

The three largest fleets on the FMCSA carrier census here run 145, 126 and 35 power units, with 137, 126 and 33 drivers. If you manage a group of trucks rather than one, list each VIN and where each unit is parked, and we can plan collections for the set in one conversation.

Twenty-nine Highlands Ranch carriers reported annual mileage to FMCSA, and their median is 20,000 miles per truck. Note the odometer reading when you photograph the dash, so the figure we record matches the one on the truck.

Rail ramps, quarries and fuel terminals around the town

The North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, places the Big Lift autoramp 3.5 miles south-west of Highlands Ranch and the 31st Street yard 16 miles north. If your truck is parked near either one, give us the street address and a gate contact, and we collect it where it stands.

Amrize Morrison Quarry lies 13.5 miles north-west and Spec Agg Quarry 17 miles north-west, both crushed-stone operations on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list. A dump truck or end-dump tractor that hauled from those pits can be picked up at the quarry or your yard; tell us which, and whether a loader or tow access is needed.

Seventeen miles north-east, the Energy Information Administration records the Aurora petroleum product terminal, and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics puts the Denver intermodal ramp 16.1 miles north. For a tanker tractor or container chassis puller from those runs, keep any terminal or carrier paperwork with the title so the truck’s working history travels with it.

Construction, wholesale and farm work in the county

The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts for 2023 put 30,619 jobs in Highlands Ranch, with 2,027 in construction and 1,451 in wholesale trade. Contractors running dump, stake-bed or service trucks from local sites can sell from the job site; send the location and the hours someone can meet us.

County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau counts 171 construction establishments here. If your company is winding down a contracting fleet, gather registrations and any service records for each unit before we talk, so each truck can be handled in turn.

Douglas County holds 1,127 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, with cattle, horses and goats leading. A livestock hauler or ranch flatbed parked on a property out in the county is collected there; tell us how the truck is reached from the road.

State emissions regulations to know about

Colorado’s Air Quality Control Commission has the Advanced Clean Trucks Rule in force, as published by the Colorado Secretary of State. If you have any emissions paperwork for your truck, include it with the title and registration.

The Heavy-Duty Low NOx Rule is also in force in Colorado according to the same Secretary of State listing. Mention the engine make and model year when you write to us, and photograph the emissions label under the hood if the truck has one.

The questions we get asked in Highlands Ranch

  • Can you collect a dump truck sitting at Amrize Morrison Quarry or Spec Agg?The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists Amrize Morrison Quarry 13.5 miles north-west and Spec Agg Quarry 17 miles north-west, and we collect a dump truck at either pit. Give us the name and number of whoever opens the quarry gate, and the loading area where the truck sits.
  • Our trucks belong to a private fleet, not a for-hire carrier. Can we still sell them?Private fleets sell to us as well. FMCSA’s carrier census counts 127 private fleets among Highlands Ranch’s 226 active carriers, and we buy from those owners too. Have the titled owner sign, and bring each unit’s registration.
  • Do Colorado’s clean-truck rules matter when I sell?The Colorado Secretary of State publishes both the Advanced Clean Trucks Rule and the Heavy-Duty Low NOx Rule as in force. Send your engine details and any emissions records along with the title.
