Chattahoochee valley haulers
FMCSA’s carrier census counts 61 active carriers registered in West Point, with 40 of them hauling general freight. If your tractor or box truck pulled general loads out of town, the cab, the VIN plate and the odometer are the three photos to send first.
Twelve West Point carriers list logs, poles, beams and lumber as cargo, and another twelve list machinery and large objects, according to the same FMCSA census. A log truck, a lowboy tractor or a flatbed that has moved timber or equipment around Troup County is a truck we buy; tell us the trailer it ran with and whether that trailer is part of the sale.
Ten carriers here report intermodal containers among their loads in FMCSA’s census. A day cab that has pulled chassis and boxes can stay parked where it sits; give us the street address and the name of whoever can unlock the yard.
Interstate, in-state and private fleets
Of West Point’s carriers, 30 are authorised for interstate work and 31 run intrastate only, per FMCSA’s carrier census, and 36 operate as private fleets hauling their own goods. A private fleet selling a truck should have the company officer who signs the title ready, along with the cab card or registration.
The FMCSA census lists 187 drivers at West Point carriers working within 100 miles of base and 64 working beyond that radius. A truck kept on local routes is likely to be at the home yard on pickup day, and one on longer runs may be parked wherever its last load ended; either way we collect from the spot you give us.
FMCSA’s carrier census puts the median West Point truck at 24,381 miles a year, across the 22 local carriers that filed mileage. Have the current odometer reading and any service records in hand when you contact us about a tractor.
Small outfits and a few mid-size fleets
One West Point carrier runs 28 power units with 43 drivers, a second runs 9 units with 20 drivers and a third runs 8 units with 10 drivers, as filed in FMCSA’s carrier census. Whether you are selling one tractor or several from a yard that size, list each VIN and where each truck is parked so the collection can be planned as one trip or several.
New registrations in town totalled 7 carriers in 2024 and 6 in 2025, FMCSA’s census shows. If you started a trucking business recently and are selling a unit, the title in the business name and your USDOT number are what to have on the table.
FMCSA roadside inspection records for 52 trucks from West Point carriers, checked between September 2024 and August 2026, put the median model year at 2019. Photograph the door-jamb sticker that shows the build date so the model year on the title and the truck agree.
Of the 52 West Point trucks stopped, 34.6 percent carried a model year ten or more years back, by those FMCSA roadside inspection records. Older and newer tractors alike are trucks we buy; put the year, make and model in your first message.
Factory jobs, freight jobs and two quarries
The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts for 2023 place 8,218 jobs in West Point, with 4,711 in manufacturing, or 57.3 percent, and 1,130 in transportation and warehousing. A tractor that has shuttled parts or finished goods between plants here may sit in a plant lot; tell us whose lot it is so the gate can be arranged.
La Grange Quarry, a crushed-stone operation 10.5 miles north-east of town, appears in Mine Safety and Health Administration records, as does Columbus Quarry LLC 24 miles south-east. A dump truck or end-dump tractor that has hauled aggregate from either site can be collected at the quarry, at your yard or at home.
County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau records 8 construction establishments in the area, and LEHD counts 59 construction jobs in West Point. If your dump truck or flatbed worked job sites, keep the title, registration and any inspection sheets together for the sale.
Livestock farms around West Point
Troup County holds 251 farms led by cattle, then sheep and goats, in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture. A livestock hauler or farm truck parked out on a county property can be picked up there; send a map pin or directions to the barn.
Farm trucks are often titled to a person rather than a business, so check whose name is on the title before you call. If that title has gone missing, the state’s title agency issues a replacement, and we can wait while it comes through.
