Sell your semi truck for cash in Sunny Isles Beach the easy and convenient way

Sunny Isles Beach sits on the barrier island in northeast Miami-Dade County, with the Port Everglades terminals and rail ramps a short run up the coast in Broward. FMCSA’s carrier census shows 71 active trucking outfits based in this town of 22,437, most of them hauling general freight, furniture and boxed household moves, or vehicles on car carriers.

Seventy-one carriers on a narrow strip of oceanfront

Of the 71 active carriers that FMCSA’s carrier census places in Sunny Isles Beach, 46 list general freight, 14 list household goods, 9 list motor vehicles and 6 list machinery or large objects. A straight truck with a moving box, a car hauler or a tractor with a dry van all fit what we collect here. When you reach out, say which of those cargo types your unit carried and send the VIN, so the first questions are already answered.

These operations are small: the three biggest fleets on FMCSA’s census run 4, 4 and 3 power units, with between two and four drivers each. If you own one truck or a handful, list each one separately with its plate, VIN and where it is parked, and we can work through them one at a time from a single conversation.

Recent startups and how the trucks are used

FMCSA’s carrier census records 15 new carriers registered in Sunny Isles Beach in 2025, after 8 in 2024. If you started an authority in the last two years and the truck no longer fits your plans, gather the title, the current Florida registration and your USDOT number before you contact us; those three let us confirm who owns the unit and what it was registered to do.

On operation type, the same FMCSA records split the town’s carriers into 37 interstate, 33 intrastate and 9 private fleets. A private fleet truck that moved a company’s own goods around Miami-Dade sells the same way as a for-hire tractor. Tell us which kind of operation it belonged to, and if the company name is on the doors, mention that too so the photos make sense.

How far trucks from this barrier island travel

FMCSA mileage filings from 14 Sunny Isles Beach carriers put the typical truck here at 72,500 miles a year, measured as the median. Read the odometer before you call and give us the exact figure, along with any service records you keep, since those two things describe the truck’s working history better than any summary.

FMCSA’s carrier census counts 61 drivers here working within 100 miles of base and 135 working beyond that radius. A truck that runs long routes may be parked somewhere other than Collins Avenue when you decide to sell. Give us the address where it actually sits, wherever that is, and we arrange the collection there rather than asking you to bring it home.

Terminals and rail ramps up the coast in Broward

The Bureau of Transportation Statistics lists the Southport roll-on/roll-off terminal at Port Everglades 9.4 miles north of Sunny Isles Beach, with the Midport terminal at 9.9 miles. The Fort Lauderdale Intermodal Container Transfer Facility, also 9.4 miles north, appears on the Bureau of Transportation Statistics list too. If your tractor pulled chassis or vehicles out of those gates, keep any port access paperwork with the title and note the terminals it served when you contact us.

Eight miles north, the Energy Information Administration records the Port Everglades petroleum product terminal, and to the south it lists another at Fisher Island, 10.1 miles away. Tank trucks that loaded at either one are units we buy. Send photos of the cab, the tank and the plates, plus any inspection reports, and tell us whether the truck sits inside a terminal lot that needs someone to open the gate.

CSXT at Hialeah, ICTF tracks to the north

According to the North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, the Port Everglades ICTF yard is 9.1 miles north and the CSXT yard at Hialeah is 10.1 miles south-west. A day cab that shuttled containers between those yards and nearby warehouses can stay where it is parked; give us that location and a contact on site.

One more ramp, listed by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics as Fort Lauderdale and 10.2 miles north, rounds out the rail access close to town. If your truck worked drayage among these points, send the registration and photos of the fifth wheel and the frame along with the cab shots.

Wholesale jobs and Miami-Dade nurseries

The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts put 5,504 jobs in Sunny Isles Beach in 2023, with 193 in wholesale trade, 103 in transportation and warehousing and 68 in construction. Box trucks used for wholesale deliveries and pickups or dumps from building sites are both trucks we pick up; tell us which trade the vehicle served and where it is kept.

Across Miami-Dade County, USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 2,664 farms, with foliage plants, potted flowering plants and cut flowers and greens leading the list. A refrigerated straight truck from a nursery route is welcome too. Have the title in the owner’s name and the reefer unit’s records on hand, and send photos of the body as well as the cab.

The questions we get asked in Sunny Isles Beach

  • My moving truck is registered in Sunny Isles Beach but parked at a yard in Hialeah. Can the sale happen with the rig left on that Hialeah lot?Hialeah’s CSXT rail yard sits 10.1 miles south-west of Sunny Isles Beach on the North American Rail Network, and trucks parked anywhere around it are collected where they stand. Send the Hialeah lot address plus a phone number for the person holding the gate key.
  • I hauled cars through Port Everglades. Should I mention that?Nine of the 71 carriers on FMCSA’s census for Sunny Isles Beach list motor vehicles as cargo, so car carriers are familiar work here. Mention the Port Everglades terminals the rig served, and send photos of the ramps and deck along with the tractor.
  • What paperwork should I have ready before selling?Sunny Isles Beach owners should start with the Florida title in their own name, then the current registration, the USDOT number if the carrier was among the 71 active ones FMCSA lists here, and any service or inspection records kept for the truck.
