Sell your semi truck for cash in Fort Myers Shores the easy and convenient way

The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists SRM Materials Punta Gorda as a crushed-stone quarry 6 miles north of Fort Myers Shores, with Jayrock, another crushed-stone quarry, at 6.2 miles in the same direction. A tri-axle or end dump that has loaded at either pit may well be parked closer to the scale house than to your driveway. Tell us which quarry gate it sits behind and who on site can let us in, and we plan the collection there.

Rock trucks from those two pits often carry a body that was fitted after the chassis left the factory. When you write to us, give the body maker and length along with the VIN, and send one photo of the bed raised and one of the hoist, so the description of the dump body matches the pictures we see.

If the title for a quarry truck sits with a business rather than with you, have the name of the person who can sign for that business ready before we arrange anything. A signature from the right officer is what lets the paperwork close cleanly once the truck is loaded.

Further afield, Bermont Excavating Site 2 is a sand and gravel operation 16.1 miles north on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s mine list, and Bluegrass rock sand and shell llc, another sand and gravel site, sits 18.8 miles north. Trucks that hauled fill or shell from those pits tend to stay parked near the work. Send us the pit name and a pin for the spot, and the truck can stay right where it was last unloaded.

The Mine Safety and Health Administration also lists two industrial-mineral mines: Bell Mine, 15.2 miles south-east, and Halls Mine, 16.2 miles north. A water truck, lowboy or service body that worked one of those properties is on our list as well. Keep any site inspection sheets and gate passes together in the cab so they travel with the truck when it leaves.

Mine sites usually ask visitors to check in first. Give us the name of the site contact and any gate hours, and we will fit the pickup to the rules of that property rather than ask you to move the truck off it.

Construction holds 146 of the 500 Fort Myers Shores jobs in 2023, a 29.2 percent slice of the town’s work as the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts record it. Contractors that size often own one or two trucks rather than a fleet, and a dump truck, flatbed or crew-cab chassis kept at a home lot is the kind of unit we collect from this area.

If you are a builder clearing out a single truck, have the registration, the title and a current odometer reading on hand when you call. Photos of the cab, the frame rails, the tires and any mounted equipment give us the full picture without a visit first.

A construction truck that changed hands between related businesses can carry a title still in the old company name. Before we schedule anything, check that the name on the title matches the seller, and if it does not, tell us at the start so the right signatures are lined up.

USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 813 farms in Lee County and lists corn, cattle and honey as its top products. Grain trucks, cattle haulers and flatbeds that move hives or feed all fall within what we purchase from growers and ranchers around Fort Myers Shores.

A farm truck often sits at the edge of a pasture or behind a barn for most of the year. Tell us the gate code or who opens the property, and say whether the ground near the truck is firm enough for a tow vehicle to reach it, so the pickup is planned around the field rather than the road.

Ranch and grove trucks are sometimes titled to a family member or a farm partnership. Find the title, confirm whose name is on it, and if it has gone missing, let us know up front so the replacement can be sorted before the collection date.

Whether the truck worked a pit north of town, a building site in Lee County or a cattle operation, the same short list helps: the VIN, the title, the registration, the odometer reading and a set of clear photos taken in daylight. With those five things in one message, our first reply can be about the truck itself.

If you have inspection reports, fuel logs or the build sheet for the body, include copies. They are not required, but they let the truck’s working life in southwest Florida show up on paper as well as in the pictures.

• Our tri-axle is still at the stone pit up past Fort Myers Shores; does it have to come home first?SRM Materials Punta Gorda and Jayrock sit 6 and 6.2 miles north of town on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list, and a truck parked at either site can stay there. Give us the quarry name and a site contact, and the collection is arranged with them.
• Do you take cattle trailers and farm trucks from Lee County ranches?Lee County has 813 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, with cattle among its top products, and the trucks that haul stock and feed for them are among those we buy. A VIN, the titled owner’s name and a few pasture-side photos get the conversation going.
• I run a small construction outfit with one truck. Will you collect just one truck?Construction accounts for 146 of the 500 jobs in Fort Myers Shores in the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts for 2023, and a single truck from a business that size is exactly what we collect here. Have the title and registration in the company name ready when you get in touch.
