Owner-operators and eleven-truck outfits in Citrus Park
FMCSA’s carrier census shows 216 active motor carriers based in Citrus Park, with 175 of them operating intrastate, 40 crossing state lines and 33 running private fleets. Most outfits here are small: the three biggest on that census field 11, 8 and 5 power units, each with a driver per truck. If you are an owner-operator or a two-truck shop, have the title and current registration in your name before you call, and we can work through the rest with you.
New authorities keep appearing on the register, too: the FMCSA carrier census logs 20 carriers that started in 2025 and 18 in 2024. A newer operation selling its first tractor should gather the purchase paperwork and the registration card together, since those two documents answer most of what we ask at the start.
General freight, car haulers and lumber rigs
General freight is the cargo listed by 126 Citrus Park carriers in FMCSA’s census, followed by motor vehicles at 35, driveaway and towaway work at 19, and logs, poles, beams and lumber at 18. That points to dry vans and flatbeds, multi-car carriers and log or lumber trailers sitting in local yards. Tell us what the truck pulled and whether the trailer goes with it.
For a car hauler or a lumber rig, a few clear photos of the deck, the ramps or the bunks, plus the cab and the VIN plate, let us see the whole setup. Send them with the year, make and model, and we will come back with the questions specific to that body.
Short local runs and long hauls from north-west Hillsborough
Among carriers reporting driver radius to FMCSA, 163 Citrus Park operators keep drivers within 100 miles and 156 send them beyond it. The 51 carriers that reported mileage to the same census show a median of 30,106 miles per truck a year. Wherever your truck is parked when you sell, at home, at a customer’s yard or out on a route, give us the street address and a contact who can open the gate.
If the truck is sitting in another county on a long run, it can stay there. We collect from where it stands, so tell us the location and the hours someone is on site.
Model years on Citrus Park tractors at inspection
Roadside inspection records kept by FMCSA cover 96 trucks from Citrus Park carriers inspected between September 2024 and August 2026; their median model year was 2016, and 47.9 percent were ten or more years old. Whatever the year of yours, the VIN and the odometer reading are the first two things we ask for.
Keep any inspection reports or service records you hold in one folder. They are not required, but on the FMCSA inspection history they are the documents that show where the truck has been and what it has done.
Tanker tractors serving the Ybor and Hooker’s Point racks
The Energy Information Administration lists two petroleum product terminals, Tampa North and Tampa PT Ybor FL Asphalt, each 11.2 miles south-east of Citrus Park. The Bureau of Transportation Statistics adds the Transflo CSXT liquid bulk terminal at 11.8 miles and the CITGO Petroleum Corporation terminal at 12 miles. If your tractor pulled tankers to those racks, list the trailer type and keep any terminal site paperwork with the title.
Port Tampa Bay’s Hooker’s Point Berths 201-203, a roll-on/roll-off terminal 12.4 miles away in the Bureau of Transportation Statistics listing, sit near the PORT TAMPA rail yard at 11 miles and the UCETA yard at 13.1 miles on the North American Rail Network. A day cab that shuttled between those berths and yards can be collected near the port, so there is no need to drive it home first.
Cement, building sites and county farms
According to the Mine Safety and Health Administration, the Tampa Cement Grinding Plant lies 11.9 miles south-east. Census Bureau County Business Patterns counts 74 construction establishments in the area, and the LEHD job counts for 2023 put 435 of Citrus Park’s 8,456 jobs in construction and 120 in wholesale trade. Mixers, dump trucks and flatbeds from that work should come with the registration and the VIN for both the chassis and any mounted body.
Aquatic plants, cattle and transplants top the farm output of Hillsborough County, where USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture tallied 1,992 farms. A farm truck or a cattle hauler parked on county land can be picked up on site; tell us whether it is registered as a farm vehicle and send the title along with photos.
The questions we get asked in Citrus Park
- The tractor is sitting by the Hooker’s Point berths rather than at my Citrus Park address; does it need moving first?Hooker’s Point Berths 201-203 sit 12.4 miles south-east of Citrus Park in the Bureau of Transportation Statistics listing, and we collect from the port area as readily as from a driveway. Send the berth or yard address and a phone number for the person who manages that lot.
- The Hillsborough County title for my tractor has gone missing; who issues a duplicate?Florida’s state title agency issues duplicate titles, so start the replacement there and tell us when you contact us. Send the registration and the VIN in the meantime so we can begin.
- My tractor hauled to the Tampa fuel terminals. Would you take a tractor that pulled fuel tankers?Tampa North and Tampa PT Ybor FL Asphalt are 11.2 miles away on the Energy Information Administration’s terminal list, and tractors that worked those racks are trucks we buy. Tell us the trailer type and send photos of the cab, frame and fifth wheel.
- Will you deal with a Citrus Park owner who has just one rig?The three largest Citrus Park carriers in FMCSA’s census have 11, 8 and 5 power units, so one-truck owners are the usual seller here. Have the title in your name and the registration current.
