Movers, car haulers and freight vans in Maitland
Of the 57 Maitland carriers on FMCSA’s census, 42 are registered for general freight, 8 for household goods, 6 for motor vehicles and 6 for paper products. A box truck from a moving outfit, a car hauler or a dry van tractor all fit what we collect, so tell us which of those your truck did and send the VIN with it.
The same federal census shows 19 Maitland carriers running interstate, 38 staying inside Florida and 20 operating as private fleets that move their own goods. If your truck belongs to a private fleet rather than a for-hire carrier, have the person who signs for the company on the call, since the title will be in the business name.
New authorities keep appearing in Maitland: FMCSA lists 5 carriers registered here in 2025 and 3 in 2024. An owner who started up recently and is now selling should have the registration and the title in hand, plus any lease or lien paperwork if the truck was financed.
Short runs around Orlando, few long hauls
Drivers attached to Maitland carriers number 583 working within 100 miles of base and 48 going farther, according to FMCSA’s carrier census. With most trucks home each night, yours is likely parked at a yard, a shop lot or your driveway in the Maitland area, and that address is all we need to plan the collection.
Have the current odometer reading ready, along with the plate and the registration card, before you send photos.
Fleet sizes vary widely here; FMCSA’s census shows one Maitland operation with 358 power units and 483 drivers, another with 11 trucks and 18 drivers, and a third with 5 trucks and 10 drivers. Whether you are selling one truck or several from a yard, list each unit by VIN so the paperwork for every title is lined up together.
Roadside stops, model years and low-clearance checks
Inspectors stopped 26 trucks belonging to Maitland carriers between September 2024 and August 2026, and FMCSA roadside inspection records put the median among them at model year 2018. Put the model year and engine make in your first message, as they appear on the registration.
Within those same inspection records, 34.6 percent of the Maitland trucks were ten or more model years old. Send any inspection reports you kept from those stops, since they record the truck’s identity and history in the inspector’s own hand.
For routing a collection, the National Bridge Inventory lists 11 bridges in Maitland, none of them load-posted and none with clearance under 14 feet. A tractor or a tall box truck can be reached on local streets, so the main thing to tell us is whether a gate or a lot attendant controls access.
Tank terminals and the ORLANDO and TAFT yards
The Heniff liquid bulk terminal, which the Bureau of Transportation Statistics places 5.6 miles south of Maitland, and the Transflo CSXT terminal 13.2 miles to the north-east both handle liquid cargo. If your tractor pulled tank trailers to either one, mention it and include any tank or hazmat endorsement paperwork tied to the truck.
Two rail yards appear on the North American Rail Network south of the city: ORLANDO at 7.3 miles and TAFT at 12.6 miles. A day cab that shuttled between those yards and Maitland shippers can be picked up wherever it is parked now, including a terminal lot, provided someone there can release it.
The Energy Information Administration lists the ORLANDO petroleum product terminal 14.3 miles south of Maitland. Fuel delivery straight trucks and tankers that loaded there are among what we purchase; have the title and the current registration ready, and note who holds the keys if the truck sits inside a fenced terminal.
Wholesale, building and warehouse work
In 2023 the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts put 44,108 jobs in Maitland, with 1,662 in wholesale trade, 1,495 in construction, 604 in transportation and warehousing and 94 in manufacturing. Delivery trucks working for wholesalers and stake beds or dumps serving builders all fit our list, so describe the body type when you write.
Seventy construction businesses operate in Maitland on the Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns tally, from site contractors to specialty trades. A contractor selling a work truck should have the title in the company name ready, along with any equipment that comes with it, such as a lift gate or a crane, noted in the listing.
Center Sand Company, a sand and gravel operation the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists 21 miles west of Maitland, is where aggregate haulers in this area load. A dump truck or end-dump tractor that ran that route can be collected from your site or the yard where it now sits.
Growers and bases
Nurseries in Orange County and the bases to the east
USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 600 farms in Orange County, and its top listed products are foliage plants, propagative material and potted flowering plants. A refrigerated box truck or a straight truck that hauled plants for a nursery qualifies; tell us the reefer unit make along with the truck’s VIN.
Eleven miles east of Maitland, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics lists the Army Research Lab Orlando Simulations and Training Technology Center and the Naval Logistics Support Annex Orlando. If your truck is parked on or near a controlled site, give us the gate contact so a collection can be cleared in advance.
A lost title is replaced through Florida’s state title agency, and the duplicate has to be in hand before a Maitland truck changes owners. Start that request before you contact us, and tell us it is in progress so the rest of the sale is ready when the duplicate arrives.
