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

Highland City sits in Polk County between the W R Grace rail spurs to the south-west and the Winter Haven intermodal ramp to the east, with mineral pits and sand and gravel operations on most sides of town. The dump trucks, tractors and tankers that serve those sites are the trucks we come here to buy.

Selling a truck in Highland City? Tell us about it and we'll take it from there.

Rail spurs

The W R Grace yards south-west of Highland City

The North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, places the W R GRACE #1 rail yard 3.7 miles south-west of Highland City and W R GRACE #2 a little further, at 4.9 miles. A truck that shuttles loads to and from those two spurs often spends its nights near them, so tell us whether it is parked out by the yards or back at a home driveway in town.

If the truck you are selling worked those spurs, gather the title, the current Florida registration and any service records into one folder before you call. Photos of the cab, the frame rails and the tag showing the VIN let us match the truck to the paperwork without a second visit.

Hauling between mineral mines and sand pits south and east

Mineral Grow, an industrial-mineral mine listed by the Mine Safety and Health Administration, lies 8.3 miles south of town, and the same agency records the Four Corners mine 15 miles to the south-west. Dump trucks and end-dump tractors that haul from pits like these are exactly what we purchase in Polk County, and we collect them at the pit gate or the yard where they are kept.

To the north, Van Fleet is a sand and gravel operation 17.1 miles away, while the Haines City Mine sits 20 miles east, per Mine Safety and Health Administration records. When a truck is parked inside a mine property, give us the name of the person who can let our driver through the gate and the hours the site is open.

Mine haulers tend to carry their own paperwork trail, such as site access cards or scale tickets. Keep whatever you have with the title; it tells us where the truck has been working and saves you a round of questions later.

Tank and container

Liquid bulk to the north-west, containers at Winter Haven

Ten point seven miles north-west of Highland City, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics lists a liquid bulk terminal, and tank tractors that pull from a site like that are welcome here. Note the trailer type the tractor pulled and whether the trailer is part of the sale, since we can collect a tractor alone or a tractor and tank together.

East of town by 11.4 miles, Winter Haven has a rail intermodal ramp on the Bureau of Transportation Statistics list. A day cab that pulls containers off that ramp can be collected in Winter Haven itself if it is parked there, with no need to bring it home to Highland City first.

Contractor trucks working Highland City sites

Of the 1,779 jobs counted in Highland City for 2023 by the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts, 138 were in construction and 66 in manufacturing. Those workers rely on dump bodies, flatbeds and service trucks, and a contractor winding down one of those trucks can sell it to us straight from the job yard.

Highland City holds 21 construction establishments, a figure the Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns puts on record, and several of them run their own dump bodies. If your company owns the truck rather than you personally, have the business name on the title match the name of whoever signs, or bring a letter showing that person can sign for the company.

Polk County farms: cattle, honey and foliage

USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 2,197 farms in Polk County, with cattle, honey and foliage plants as the leading products. Livestock haulers, box trucks moving nursery plants and flatbeds carrying hive pallets all come off farms like these.

A farm truck may be titled to the farm, a family member or an ag business, so check whose name is printed on the title before we schedule a visit. Tell us which gate or barn the truck is parked by; rural Polk County addresses can cover a lot of ground.

Inspection stops and the 2010 median tractor

Highland City trucks stopped for roadside checks from September 2024 to August 2026 numbered 37 in FMCSA roadside inspection records; their median model year was 2010, and 70 percent of the 37 were ten or more model years old. A 2010 tractor and a 2022 one are both on our list here; send the year, make and VIN to begin.

If you kept the inspection reports from any of those stops, put them with the title and registration. They are a ready record of the truck’s history, and they help us describe it accurately when we talk with you.

The questions we get asked in Highland City

  • My hauler sits beside the W R Grace spurs south-west of Highland City; does it have to come into town first?Those yards sit 3.7 and 4.9 miles south-west of Highland City on the North American Rail Network, and we collect the truck where it is parked near them. Send us the address and who can grant access.
  • Can you pick up a dump truck from a mine site south of town?Mineral Grow is 8.3 miles south and Four Corners 15 miles south-west, according to the Mine Safety and Health Administration, and pickup at a site like those is arranged with whoever runs the gate. Give us their name and the site’s open hours.
  • Our Highland City contracting outfit owns the dump truck; which documents should the signer bring?With 21 construction establishments here on the Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns, many trucks are company-titled; bring the title, current registration and proof the signer can act for the business, plus any service records you kept.
  • My day cab stays at the Winter Haven ramp between container runs; is pickup possible right there?Winter Haven’s rail intermodal ramp lies 11.4 miles east on the Bureau of Transportation Statistics list, and we can collect the tractor in Winter Haven rather than in Highland City.
