Sell your semi truck for cash in Longboat Key the easy and convenient way

The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts place 2,695 jobs on Longboat Key in 2023. A box truck, a service body or a dump truck that works island addresses is often parked at a driveway, a condominium lot or a job site rather than a yard, so give us the street address and the name of whoever can let us reach it.

County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau records 3 construction establishments in this town. If your truck came out of one of those outfits, photograph the body, the cab and the plate on the door frame, and keep the title in the name that appears on the registration.

A Longboat Key owner can leave the truck on the island for the sale. We collect from the spot where it sits, so tell us about any gate code, low branches or tight turn before the visit is booked.

About 8 miles north-east of the key, the North American Rail Network maintained by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics shows the Brandenton rail yard. Day cabs that shuttle loads between a yard like that and island addresses belong on the list of trucks we buy; send the VIN and an odometer photo first.

A second yard at Port Manatee sits 18 miles to the north-east on that same federal rail map. If your tractor is parked near either yard and you have moved on to other work, leave it where it is and give us a contact on site who can open the gate.

Straight north of the key by 17.1 miles, Port Manatee holds a petroleum product terminal on the Energy Information Administration’s list. Tank trucks and tractors that pull fuel trailers to and from a terminal like that are trucks we purchase; keep the registration, any annual inspection reports and the service records together for us.

Manatee County Port sits 18.4 miles east of the key in the Bureau of Transportation Statistics port listing. A sleeper or day cab that pulls containers or bulk loads from those docks can be collected at the port lot or at your home, whichever is easier for you to arrange.

Tell us which of these sites the truck served when you first contact us. It means the questions we ask are about the truck itself, and the trailer, if you are selling one too, can be added to the same pickup.

The Mine Safety and Health Administration records Caloosa Materials, an industrial-mineral mine, 24.3 miles north-east of Longboat Key. Dump trucks and tri-axles that haul from a pit like that to mainland and island job sites are part of what we buy.

If your dump truck is parked at the mine or at a contractor’s yard on the way, photograph the bed, the hoist and the cab, and note the axle count. Mine-site access usually needs an escort, so name the person who can meet us at the gate.

Across the county that holds Longboat Key, 286 farms operate, and propagative material, cattle and foliage plants top their output in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture. Flatbeds and box trucks that move nursery stock, and cattle haulers, are trucks we take from county farms as readily as from fleets.

Nursery and ranch trucks here may carry the farm’s name on the title instead of yours. Before we visit, find the title and check the owner name on it against the registration, and if the title is lost, Florida’s state title agency issues the duplicate.

• My truck is parked at a condo lot on Longboat Key. Does the island condo lot work as the pickup spot?Longboat Key addresses are where we pick up, condo lots included. Give us the building name, the space number and someone from the association who can confirm we are allowed on the lot.
• The truck sits near the Port Manatee terminal. Do I have to move it to the island?The Port Manatee petroleum terminal is 17.1 miles north of the key on the Energy Information Administration listing, and we collect there directly. Tell us whose property it is on so the collection is arranged with them.
• The title for my truck on the key has gone missing. Which Florida office replaces it for a Longboat Key owner?A key resident whose title is missing applies to Florida’s state title agency for the replacement copy. Apply for the replacement, then send us a photo of it with the registration.
