A Pasco trucking base that stays in Florida
Out of the 203 New Port Richey motor carriers still active in FMCSA’s carrier census, a full 169 keep to Florida work and just 33 are authorised interstate. If your truck has spent its working life on Florida roads, that matches most of the operators here; have the Florida title and current registration in the cab folder when you reach out.
Fifty-nine of the town’s carriers, the FMCSA census shows, move only their own goods as private fleets rather than freight for hire. A contractor or landscaper selling a company truck should have the business name on the title match the person signing, or bring a letter showing who can sign for the company.
General freight, car hauling and tow rigs
General freight is the most common cargo line among local carriers, with 104 listing it in FMCSA’s census, while 43 list motor vehicles and 25 list driveaway or towaway work. Car carriers and rollback trucks fit that mix, and we take them; photograph the deck, the ramps and the headboard along with the cab.
Nineteen New Port Richey carriers register for household goods, according to FMCSA’s census, so box trucks and moving vans are part of the local picture too. For a box truck, send pictures of the liftgate and the inside of the body, and note the body length when you describe it.
Small fleets and how far the drivers go
The three biggest local fleets in the FMCSA census run 22, 15 and 12 power units, the first with 42 drivers on its roster. That means most sellers here are owner-operators or small shops with a handful of trucks; you can sell one unit or several, and each needs its own title in hand.
Drivers tied to New Port Richey carriers split 334 working within 100 miles and 567 going beyond it, as FMCSA’s census records driver radius. A long-haul sleeper may be parked at a yard out of state when you decide to sell; give us the exact address and a contact who can hand over the keys there.
Across 26 carriers that report mileage, the median comes to 35,374 miles per truck a year in FMCSA’s census. Write down the odometer reading and the VIN before you call, since those two figures start every conversation about a truck.
Twenty-six local trucks under inspection
Twenty-six New Port Richey trucks went through FMCSA roadside inspections between September 2024 and August 2026, and their median model year in those records sits at 2016. Exactly half of that group of 26, by the same FMCSA inspection records, carried a model year a decade or more back.
Whatever the model year of yours, keep the inspection reports from those roadside stops with the truck’s paperwork. Service invoices, the annual inspection sheet and any DOT stickers on the door help us confirm the history you describe.
Quarries and building
Stone pits north-east and Pasco building crews
The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists County Line Mine, an industrial-mineral operation, 15.8 miles north-east of town, and the Georgia Stone Spring Hill Quarry about 17 miles out in the same direction. Dump trucks and tractor-trailers that haul stone out of those pits are trucks we buy, and we can collect from a quarry lot if the operator lets us in.
In 2023 New Port Richey held 8,304 jobs on the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts, and 447 of them, 5.4 percent, sat in construction. County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau puts 60 construction establishments in the area, so dump bodies, flatbeds and service trucks are common here; list any attached equipment, such as a crane or a plow mount, when you describe the truck.
Collecting your truck around Pasco County
None of the 8 bridges the National Bridge Inventory records in New Port Richey is load-posted, and none has clearance under 14 feet. Tell us where the truck is parked, whether it is a driveway, a shop lot or a job site, and whether a tow rig can reach it.
USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 1,190 farms across Pasco County, led by cattle, equine and potted flowering plants. Livestock haulers, horse-trailer tractors and nursery delivery trucks parked out on a ranch are collected where they sit; just confirm the gate access and who will be there.

Get the site’s permission for the visit and give us the name of the person at the gate.
- Does a New Port Richey car carrier or rollback fit what you purchase?Motor vehicle hauling is listed by 43 local carriers in FMCSA’s census, and car carriers are among the trucks we purchase. Send photos of the ramps and deck with the VIN and odometer reading.
- Is a Pasco truck that never left Florida on its authority a problem for the sale?Of the 203 New Port Richey carriers in FMCSA’s census, 169 operate intrastate, so a Florida-only truck is typical here and we take it. Keep its Florida title and the tag registration together for the pickup.
- Before I call about my Pasco County truck, what belongs in its folder?FMCSA roadside inspection records show 26 local trucks inspected between 2024 and 2026, and any reports from stops like those belong in your folder. Add the title, registration and service invoices, and we will ask for anything else.
