Ten and four-tenths miles west of Tiger Point, the Energy Information Administration places the PENSACOLA TPSI petroleum product terminal. A tractor that has pulled fuel tankers out of that gate is the sort of unit we collect, so tell us the trailer type it was coupled to and whether the tractor is kept at the terminal lot or at your home in Tiger Point.
Trans Montaigne, a liquid bulk terminal, is listed by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics at that same 10.4-mile distance west. If your tank truck or tractor ran between these two sites, gather the title, the current registration and any service records you have, and photograph the cab, the frame and the tank or fifth wheel before you get in touch.
Sand and gravel east and north of town
River Road Pit, a sand and gravel operation 11.4 miles east of Tiger Point, appears in the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s records. Dump trucks and end-dump tractors that load at a pit often stay parked near it between jobs; give us the exact spot and a person who can let us onto the property, and we collect it where it sits.
The Mine Safety and Health Administration also lists the Quikrete Mine, a sand and gravel operation 13.9 miles north. Owners of a tri-axle or a mixer chassis that hauled from there should send the VIN, the odometer reading and clear photos of each side, so the questions we ask afterward are about that specific truck.
According to the North American Rail Network kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, the PENSACOLA rail yard lies 11.7 miles west of Tiger Point and the GOULDING yard 11.9 miles north-west. A day cab that shuttled loads off those yards is something we buy outright, wherever in Santa Rosa County it is parked now.
For a tractor tied to rail freight, say which yard it served and whether it is still on a yard lot or a terminal fence line, and who holds the key to that ground. Keep the title in hand; if it has gone missing, the state’s title agency issues the replacement before the sale closes.
Military fields
Near NOLF Holley and NOLF Choctaw
Two military installations sit close to Tiger Point on Bureau of Transportation Statistics listings: NOLF Holley, 10 miles east, and NOLF Choctaw, 10.4 miles to the north-east. A contractor’s truck parked on or beside either field may need a gate escort, so name the person who can sign us in when you describe the truck.
Should the vehicle be behind a fence you cannot open yourself, give us the contact who controls that gate and the hours it is staffed. We arrange the collection around that access, and you can finish the paperwork from wherever you are.
USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 732 farms in Santa Rosa County, with cotton, cattle and equine at the top of its list. Grain trucks, livestock haulers and flatbeds that served those farms are welcome here; tell us whether the truck is at a barn or field and if the lane to it is passable for a tow rig.
Whatever kind of work your truck did around here, the first message only needs the year, make, model, VIN and where it is parked.
