Docks up north
Port trucks fourteen miles up the coast
Drive 14.1 miles north from San Castle and you reach two Palm Beach Terminal listings in Bureau of Transportation Statistics records: a roll-on/roll-off berth and a rail intermodal ramp. A day cab or yard tractor that shuttles trailers and containers at those docks is a truck we buy, and it can stay at the terminal lot when we collect it. Tell us the gate it sits behind and who can let a driver in.
A Port of Palm Beach rail yard sits 14 miles north on the North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration with the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. If your tractor has drayed boxes between that yard and the ramp, send the VIN, the cab and sleeper layout, and clear photos of the fifth wheel and the frame rails. Those details let us ask about your tractor, not about the port.
If your truck has worked those lanes at the Palm Beach Terminal, have the title and current registration in your name before we arrange pickup; a truck registered to a former employer or a leasing firm needs that paperwork sorted first.
Sidings and the rack
West Palm Beach rail yard and fuel terminal
Eleven and a half miles north of San Castle, the North American Rail Network shows a West Palm Beach rail yard. Straight trucks and tractors that run freight to and from rail sidings are welcome here, whether the truck sits at the yard, at a shop or in your driveway. Give us the street address and we plan the collection there.
According to the Energy Information Administration, a petroleum product terminal operates in West Palm Beach, 13.9 miles north of town. Tank trucks and the tractors that pull fuel trailers off that rack are on our list. Keep any terminal loading cards, hazmat paperwork and inspection reports with the truck, since they show where it worked in a way photos cannot.
Rock hauling
Tri-axles from the Palm Beach Aggregates pit
Palm Beach Aggregates LLC runs a crushed-stone quarry 21.6 miles north-west of San Castle, as recorded by the Mine Safety and Health Administration. Tri-axle dumps, end-dump tractors and the trailers they pull out of a pit like that are trucks we purchase. Photograph the bed, the hoist and the tag axle along with the cab and the plate.
If your dump truck is parked near the quarry rather than at home, you do not have to move it south. Send the location, tell us whether a tow truck can reach it on a paved road, and name someone who can be there or leave the keys. The quarry’s distance from town is no obstacle to the sale.
Foliage and barns
Box trucks for foliage, potted flowers and horses
USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 1,368 farms in Palm Beach County, and the leading items it lists are foliage plants, potted flowering plants and equine. Refrigerated box trucks and stake beds that carry plants from growers, plus the pickups and medium-duty trucks that tow horse trailers, are all trucks we will look at.
A grower’s truck often sits at the nursery, a barn or a packing shed. Tell us which one, and whether the truck is registered to the farm or to you personally; whoever is named on the title signs it over. If a reefer unit is fitted, include its make and the hour reading in the photos you send.
For a San Castle sale, start with the Florida title and check that your name is printed on it. If it is lost, the state’s title agency issues a duplicate; apply for that before we schedule pickup so the transfer is not held up. Any lien recorded on the title needs a release from the lender as well.
Beyond the title, gather the registration, the keys, and any service or inspection records you have in a folder that travels with the truck. Fleet owners in San Castle selling several units at once can send one list of VINs and locations, and each unit gets collected from where it is parked.
Gated ground
Parked by the NAVRESCEN site or another fenced lot
The Bureau of Transportation Statistics records NAVRESCEN W Palm Beach as a military installation 9.1 miles north of San Castle. A truck stored on or beside a secured site needs an escort or a gate pass for our driver, so tell us about access when you first get in touch.
If the truck is yours but parked on property you do not control, such as an installation lot or a contractor’s yard, name the person who manages that ground. We arrange the collection with them directly, and you handle the title from wherever you are.
