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

Two rail yards sit close together west of Orlando: the North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, places WEST 6.7 miles out and TAFT 7.2 miles out. If your tractor has shuttled freight to either yard and is now parked in a lot near the tracks, give us the street address and the name of whoever controls the gate, and we arrange collection there.

Just past those yards, the Energy Information Administration lists the ORLANDO petroleum product terminal 7.1 miles west of the city. A fuel tractor or tanker that loads at that rack can be sold from the yard it is based in; have the title, the current registration and any tank test paperwork together before you call.

Heniff, a liquid bulk terminal that the Bureau of Transportation Statistics puts 13 miles north-west of Orlando, is the other bulk site on that side of town. Photograph the tanker’s data plate along with the cab and the tractor’s VIN plate, so the trailer and the power unit are both identified in the first message you send us.

A crushed-stone quarry operates 14.7 miles east of Orlando, per the Mine Safety and Health Administration. Dump trucks and end-dump tractors that haul from a quarry often stay on site between jobs, so tell us whether yours is inside the pit or at a shop, and whether someone there can let our driver in.

To the south-west, FLINT PLANT is a sand and gravel operation 24.9 miles from the city on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list. A truck sitting out at that distance never has to be driven back to Orlando for the sale; send photos of both sides, the bed and the odometer, plus the title, and we plan the pickup at the plant.

FMCSA’s carrier census counts 7,045 active carriers based in Orlando, and 4,349 of them list general freight. Box trucks, day cabs and sleepers from that general freight work are what most sellers here will have, and the title in your name plus the registration is the starting paperwork for any of them.

Vehicle hauling shows up often here: 1,102 Orlando carriers list motor vehicles as cargo and 547 list driveaway or towaway work, according to the same FMCSA census. If yours is a car-carrier tractor with its stinger trailer, tell us whether you are selling both together or just the tractor.

Passenger operators account for another 637 carriers on FMCSA’s books. Of all active carriers here, the federal census records 5,457 running intrastate only, 1,570 crossing state lines and 1,756 operating as private fleets that haul their own goods, so a truck from a company that is not a trucking business is just as welcome.

New authorities keep appearing: FMCSA registered 565 new Orlando carriers in 2024 and 600 in 2025. If you started a one-truck company in that stretch and are closing it or switching equipment, sell the truck first and keep your USDOT paperwork on hand in case we need to confirm the registered owner.

At the other end, the three biggest local fleets on file with FMCSA run 923, 519 and 372 power units. Fleet managers retiring several units at once can send one list of VINs, and we work through the titles and pickup locations together.

According to the carrier census, 13,423 drivers at Orlando carriers stay within 100 miles of base while 14,113 go further. A long-haul sleeper may be parked out of state when you decide to sell; tell us where it sits and we go to it there.

FMCSA roadside inspection records from August 2024 to August 2026 cover 2,017 Orlando-based trucks, with a median model year of 2019 and 33.47 percent of them ten or more model years old. Whatever year yours is, send the VIN first; it tells us the exact build.

Across 1,072 local carriers that report mileage, the median comes to 33,456 miles per truck in FMCSA’s carrier census. Read the odometer and the engine hour meter and include both numbers when you send photos, along with service records if you kept them.

The National Bridge Inventory lists 333 bridges in and around Orlando, nine of them load-posted and 11 with less than 14 feet of clearance. When you give us the pickup address, mention any low structure or posted bridge on the way in, so the carrier sent to collect your truck takes a route that fits.

The lowest structure on the Federal Highway Administration’s list here is the CNL parking garage entrance, at 6 ft 9 in. Nobody should try to bring a tractor near that; a truck kept in a garage or a tight downtown lot is best described with a photo of the exit, so we know what fits through it.

Transportation and warehousing employed 30,276 people in the Orlando area in 2023, 7.4 percent of 406,405 jobs on the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts. The same LEHD counts give construction 13,711 jobs, manufacturing 13,590 and wholesale trade 13,063. Trucks from those firms are often parked behind a warehouse or at a job site rather than at a terminal, so give us that address.

County Business Patterns, from the Census Bureau, records 1,594 construction establishments and 27 warehousing establishments locally. A contractor’s flatbed, dump or crane truck can be collected straight from the yard; have the title and registration in the company’s name and someone authorised to sign for the business.

Orange County also had 600 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, led by foliage plants, propagative material and potted flowering plants. Nursery growers who run their own box trucks or reefer units can sell one from the greenhouse lot, with the title and registration ready.

• My truck is parked near the naval annex north of town. Will your driver pick it up beside the annex?The Bureau of Transportation Statistics places a naval logistics support annex 12.6 miles north of Orlando, and our driver can collect the truck from wherever it is parked near there; tell us whether a pass or escort is needed to reach it.
• Can I sell a car-carrier tractor without its trailer?FMCSA’s census shows 1,102 Orlando carriers hauling motor vehicles, and you can sell the tractor alone or with the trailer; tell us which when you send the VIN.
