Holden Lakes trucks on the Orlando rail corridor
Only 1.8 miles north of Holden Lakes, the ORLANDO rail yard appears on the North American Rail Network that the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics maintain. If your day cab shuttles freight to and from that yard, give us the exact street address where it sits and we will route the pickup there.
Head 3.8 miles south and the North American Rail Network records the TAFT yard. If your tractor splits its runs between ORLANDO and TAFT, tell us which yard it works out of most weeks, and have the title and current registration in the cab when we arrive.
Tankers near Heniff and the Orlando fuel terminal
Heniff, a liquid bulk terminal, is listed by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics at 3.6 miles north of town. Owners selling a tractor that has pulled tank trailers in and out of Heniff should say whether the trailer goes with the sale or stays behind, since that changes what we collect.
According to the Energy Information Administration, a petroleum product terminal named ORLANDO stands 5.3 miles to the south. For a fuel tanker or a tractor that has loaded there, keep its inspection reports and service records together in one folder; they let us read the truck’s history alongside the photos you send.
Two military installations on the Orlando side
Two military installations appear in Bureau of Transportation Statistics listings near Holden Lakes: NG Orlando Naval Training Center, 4.6 miles south-east, and Naval Logistics Support Annex Orlando, 12.8 miles to the north-east. Contractors whose box trucks or flatbeds serve either site can sell them to us from wherever they are kept.
Should your truck be parked behind a gate or inside a contractor yard near the training center, let us know who can open it and on which days. A pickup at a controlled site goes smoothly when the access contact is named on the first call.
Dump trucks from the sand mines to the west
West of town, the Mine Safety and Health Administration records Center Sand Company at 18.4 miles and Four Corners Sand Mine at 18.7 miles. Tandem and tri-axle dump trucks hauling sand out of those operations are among the trucks we buy across Orange County.
Is your dump truck still sitting at the mine site rather than in Holden Lakes? We can collect it out there; send photos of the bed, the hoist, the frame and the cab, plus the VIN, so we know what we are coming to load.
Foliage and flowering plant growers in Orange County
Orange County’s 600 farms, as tallied in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, lead with foliage plants, then propagative material, then flowering plants grown in pots. Refrigerated straight trucks and box trucks that move nursery stock fit what we purchase from growers here.
For a reefer unit, the trailer or truck body’s hours and service log belong with the title. Growers who run several delivery trucks can list them all in a single message and we will arrange to collect them together.
Selling one truck from a Holden Lakes driveway
For 2023, LEHD job counts from the Census Bureau put 1,045 jobs inside Holden Lakes itself. Small operators running one or two trucks out of a home driveway or a shop on a side street are owners we deal with directly, with no fleet manager in between.
Before you reach out, gather the title in your name, the registration, and four or five clear photos taken in daylight. If the title has been lost, the state’s title agency issues a replacement, and it helps to start that request before we schedule a pickup.
