North to the port
Port Everglades, under seven miles up the coast
The Energy Information Administration places the Port Everglades petroleum product terminal 4.7 miles north of Hallandale Beach. If your tractor has pulled fuel out of that terminal, tell us so on the first call and have the registration and any terminal access paperwork to hand, and list the sites it served.
Two roll-on/roll-off berths, Southport at 6.4 miles and Midport at 6.9 miles, appear in the Bureau of Transportation Statistics list of port terminals north of town. Car haulers and lowboys that load at those berths often sit in yards near the port between jobs; give us the yard address and a gate contact and we arrange collection there instead of asking you to drive the truck home.
RSI Logistics, a liquid bulk terminal 7.1 miles north according to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, rounds out the tank work close to the city. For a tank-trailer tractor, send photos of the cab, frame, fifth wheel and tires, plus the VIN, so what we see lines up with what you tell us.
Intermodal ramps at Fort Lauderdale
Port Everglades ICTF, a rail yard six miles north, is mapped by the North American Rail Network of the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, and a second yard named Fort Lauderdale sits 7.2 miles out. Day cabs that shuttle boxes between those yards and the docks are trucks we buy; the title in your name and a current registration are the two documents to find first.
On the Bureau of Transportation Statistics roster of rail intermodal ramps, the Fort Lauderdale ICTF lies 6.4 miles away and a second Fort Lauderdale ramp 7 miles away. If your container chassis tractor is parked at one of them rather than at home in Hallandale Beach, leave it there and tell us who controls the lot.
Freight, furniture, cars and reefer loads
FMCSA’s carrier census shows 334 active carriers in the city, and 207 of them list general freight as a cargo. Box trucks, straight trucks and tractors on dry van work all fit what we purchase, so start with the VIN, the odometer reading and a few clear photos.
Household goods appear on 55 carrier registrations and motor vehicles on 51, by the count in FMCSA’s carrier census, with refrigerated food on 36. Moving vans, car carriers and reefer units each come with their own equipment, so mention the body or the reefer unit when you describe the truck and include its service records if you kept them.
Of those carriers, 223 run intrastate and 109 interstate, while 64 are private fleets hauling their own goods, all according to FMCSA’s carrier census. An interstate truck may carry its USDOT number on the doors; tell us whether that authority is still active so the paperwork at pickup matches the registration.
Single trucks to fleets of seventy
The three biggest operations in town run 71, 32 and 14 power units, with 75, 58 and 14 drivers, per FMCSA’s carrier census. Whether you are selling one tractor or several from a yard of that size, a list of VINs with the title status of each lets us plan one visit for all of them.
If you started up recently and the truck is still financed, say so early, since the lienholder has to release the title before ownership can pass.
Drivers working within 100 miles of base number 303, against 653 beyond that radius, in FMCSA’s carrier census for Hallandale Beach. A truck on a long route may be parked out of state when you decide to sell; give us its current location and we collect it where it stands.
Across 176 trucks inspected between August 2024 and August 2026, FMCSA roadside inspection records give a median model year of 2019 for vehicles from Hallandale Beach carriers. Have the model year, engine make and transmission type ready, since those three details shape the first conversation.
About 25.6 percent of those inspected trucks were ten or more model years old, again per FMCSA roadside inspection records. Older or newer, the steps are the same: a clear title, matching VIN plates, and photos of each side of the truck.
Jobs and building trades around the city
The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts put 12,596 jobs in Hallandale Beach in 2023, with 459 in wholesale trade, 354 in manufacturing and 329 in construction. Delivery straight trucks and stake beds that serve those employers are part of what we buy; a registration in the business name means we will also need someone authorised to sign for the company.
Some 106 contractor establishments turn up in the construction tally of the Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns. Dump trucks, flatbeds and mixer chassis from contractors can be collected from a job site, so long as you tell us the address and whether a loader or gate key is needed to reach the truck.
Out across Broward County, USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 658 farms, led by potted flowering plants, foliage plants and horses. Nursery box trucks and horse-hauling rigs from those operations qualify too; bring the title and any trailer paperwork together so both can change hands at once.
The questions we get asked in Hallandale Beach
- Can I sell several trucks from one yard together?You can, all in one go. FMCSA’s carrier census shows local fleets running as many as 71 power units, and we handle a group sale in one visit. A list of VINs with each title’s status is the place to begin.
