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

Patrick AFB sits on the barrier island beside Patrick Space Force Base, with Port Canaveral’s cargo piers and fuel terminals up the coast to the north and the Cocoa rail yards across the river to the north-west. Trucks that serve the base, the port and the tank farms are the ones we buy here.

Beside the base gate

Hauling for the Space Force base on the barrier island

The Bureau of Transportation Statistics places Patrick Space Force Base a fifth of a mile north-east of the town centre, so the installation and the community sit side by side on the barrier island. If your truck delivers to the base gate or works for a contractor there, tell us the street where it is parked and we collect it from that spot.

Cape Canaveral Space Force Station is 17.2 miles north on the Bureau of Transportation Statistics list of military installations. A box truck, flatbed or tractor that shuttles between the two installations can be sold from either end of that run: send us the street address where it sits and a note on whether a gate pass is needed to reach it.

Have the title in your own name, the current Florida registration and four or five clear photos of the cab, the plate and the VIN tag before you call. With those three things in hand, the conversation is about your truck rather than about missing papers.

Ships at Port Canaveral

Roll-on/roll-off cargo at Port Canaveral’s south piers

Twelve miles north, Port Canaveral’s South Cargo Pier 4 appears in Bureau of Transportation Statistics records as a roll-on/roll-off terminal. Tractors and car haulers that move vehicles and wheeled cargo off those ships tend to stay near the port between loads, so tell us whether yours is at a yard on the mainland or close to the pier.

Port work leaves a trail of gate logs, dispatch sheets and service invoices. Keep the service invoices with the truck when you send photos; they let us see what the tractor has done without guessing, and they answer most of our questions before we ask them.

Cape fuel racks

Tankers loading at the Cape’s two petroleum terminals and VTTI

The Energy Information Administration lists two petroleum product terminals at Cape Canaveral, one 11.9 miles north of Patrick AFB and another at 12.9 miles. Beside them, VTTI’s liquid bulk terminal sits 12.7 miles north according to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. Fuel tankers and tractors pulling tank trailers out of that cluster are trucks we purchase.

If your tanker has hauled from those racks, tell us the trailer type and whether the tractor and trailer are being sold together or apart. List the tank inspection dates you have on file; a photo of the inspection plate on the barrel is enough to start with.

A tractor that lives at a terminal lot rather than at your house is still easy for us to reach. Give us the terminal name and the gate it sits behind, and we will arrange the pickup around the site’s access rules.

West over the lagoon

Cocoa’s rail yard and intermodal ramp

North-west of town, the North American Rail Network maintained by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics shows the COCOA-ROCKLEDGE rail yard 10.8 miles away. The Bureau of Transportation Statistics adds an intermodal ramp at Cocoa, 11 miles out in the same direction.

Day cabs that dray containers between that ramp and Port Canaveral make short, repeated trips on the mainland side of the river. If yours is one of them, send the VIN and the odometer reading first, along with a photo of the fifth wheel; those three details shape every other question we ask.

A container chassis sold with the tractor should come with its own registration. Put both documents side by side in your photos so we can match the plate on each piece to the paperwork.

A missing title goes to the Viera service center

On the mainland, the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles routes title work for barrier-island owners through Brevard’s county tax collector service centers and license plate agents. For Patrick AFB that means the Brevard County motor vehicle service center - Viera, at 2725 Judge Fran Jamieson Blvd., Suite A108, Viera, 32940, which the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles locations list puts about 7.5 miles from town.

If the title is missing, start the duplicate at that Viera office before you contact us, and bring your registration and photo ID. If a lender is still shown on the title, ask for the lien release letter and take it with you on the same visit.

Cattle, honey and nursery trucks on the mainland

Brevard County holds 584 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, and cattle, honey and potted flowering plants lead its list. Stock trailers, flatbeds and refrigerated box trucks that serve those operations usually sit on a ranch or nursery lot west of the river, which is where we pick them up.

For a farm truck, the registration class matters: tell us whether it carries agricultural plates or standard commercial ones, and photograph the registration card along with the cab so the two can be checked against each other.

Island workers

Owner-operators around Patrick AFB

In 2023 the island community held 1,255 jobs, a figure from the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts for Patrick AFB. If you own a service van, utility truck or delivery straight truck yourself and work in town, you can sell it to us directly.

If you run a single truck from your driveway on the island, a phone photo of the odometer, the VIN plate and each side of the truck is all we need to begin; we will come to the address where it is parked.
