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

The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists the Amrize Distel Plant, a sand and gravel operation, 4.5 miles east of Longmont, and Nelson Mining Resource 6.3 miles to the south-east. Dump trucks and end-dump tractors that shuttle aggregate from those pits often sit in a contractor’s yard on the east side between jobs, so tell us the yard address and who holds the gate key.

West toward the foothills, the Lyons Cement Plant run by Cemex sits 7.7 miles from town on Mine Safety and Health Administration records. A bulk pneumatic tractor or mixer that has worked the Lyons run can be collected from the plant road or from your own lot; send photos of the cab, the frame and the trailer coupling along with the VIN.

Meadow Hollow Quarry, a dimension-stone site 9.2 miles north, and TRUPP Loveland at 19.6 miles are both listed by the Mine Safety and Health Administration. Flatbeds that carry cut stone off those benches should come with the title in your name and the current Colorado registration, which is all we need to start.

Of the 838 Longmont trucking firms active in FMCSA’s carrier census, general freight is the cargo on 333. If your box truck or van trailer rig falls in that group, the registration card and the last annual inspection sheet are the two papers to put in the glovebox before we arrive.

Machinery and large objects appear on 173 of those registrations, logs, poles, beams and lumber on 106, and motor vehicles on 81, according to the same federal census. Lowboys, log trailers and car haulers each have their own hitch and deck to photograph, so shoot the deck empty and from both sides.

Of the 838, the carrier census marks 712 as intrastate only and 126 as interstate, and 490 run private fleets hauling their own goods. A truck that never left Colorado still needs a clear title; if a lender is named on it, bring the lender’s signed release.

FMCSA roadside inspection records for 112 Longmont-based trucks checked between August 2024 and August 2026 show a median model year of 2016, with 43.75 percent ten or more years old. Whatever the year on yours, the title and the VIN plate are what we confirm first.

Local firms report 3,262 drivers working within 100 miles and 1,160 going farther, in figures filed with FMCSA. For the 149 carriers reporting mileage to FMCSA, the median truck covers 10,000 miles a year. Tell us where yours is usually parked and we will collect it there.

FMCSA’s carrier census shows the three fleets with the most power units here running 306, 211 and 207. If you are selling several trucks from one yard, list each VIN and plate number together and we can plan one trip.

Manufacturing accounts for 4,088 of the 40,313 jobs located in Longmont in 2023, on the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts. Plant delivery trucks and straight trucks from those sites tend to keep service logs on file; ask the shop for a printout before you list the truck.

Wholesale trade adds 1,631 jobs, construction 1,496 and transportation and warehousing 426, as the LEHD figures put it for 2023. County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau records 245 construction establishments in the area, each one a possible home for a dump body, a flatbed or a crane truck.

Across Boulder County, the USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 826 farms, with corn, cattle and horses at the top. Grain trucks and livestock haulers parked on a farm outside Longmont can be picked up at the barn; just give us directions from the nearest county road.

The North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, places the Longmont rail yard 1.1 miles south-east of town. Drayage tractors working that yard are usually close enough that we can collect them from the lot beside the tracks.

The Energy Information Administration lists the Denver petroleum product terminal 23.6 miles south-east. Fuel tankers based in Longmont that load there should come with the tank’s test certificates and any hazmat placard records you keep.

Of the 57 bridges the National Bridge Inventory counts in Longmont, none carries a posted load limit and none clears under 14 feet. A tall tractor-trailer can reach a pickup point in town without a detour, so give us the street address rather than a meeting spot.

Colorado’s Air Quality Control Commission has the Advanced Clean Trucks Rule in force, as part of the Colorado Clean Cars and Trucks Regulation published by the Colorado Secretary of State. That rule is about what manufacturers sell new; selling a truck you already own goes ahead with the usual title and registration.

The Heavy-Duty Low NOx Rule, from the same state regulation, is also in force in Colorado. Keep the emissions label on the engine readable in your photos, and if the title has gone missing, request a duplicate from the state’s title agency before pickup.

• Can you collect my dump truck from the Distel gravel pit outside Longmont?It can stay put: the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists the Amrize Distel Plant 4.5 miles east of town, and we collect from pit yards like that one. Give us the name of whoever opens the pit gate on the day.
• My truck only ever hauled inside Colorado; can it still be sold to you?Yes, and it is common here: FMCSA’s carrier census shows 712 of Longmont’s 838 active carriers running intrastate only, and a truck that stayed in the state sells the same way with its title and registration.
• The mixer worked the Lyons cement run. Where do you collect it?Wherever it sits. The Lyons Cement Plant is 7.7 miles west of Longmont on Mine Safety and Health Administration records, and we can meet the truck at your yard or a plant-side lot.
