Hay, freight and machinery out of Kimberly
FMCSA’s carrier census lists 89 active motor carriers registered in Kimberly. If yours is one of them, have the USDOT number to hand when you contact us, along with the truck’s title and current Idaho registration, so the sale starts from the same record the census holds.
Of those 89, FMCSA counts 52 hauling general freight, 46 carrying grain, feed or hay, 37 moving machinery and large objects and 28 handling farm supplies. A tractor that has pulled a hopper or a flatbed of baled hay out of Kimberly is exactly what we collect; tell us what trailer it ran with and send photos of the cab, frame and fifth wheel.
Interstate authority covers 43 of the Kimberly carriers in the federal census, while 46 operate within Idaho only and 39 run as private fleets hauling their own goods. A farm or a business that owns its truck rather than leasing it out can sell it the same way a for-hire outfit does: the titled owner signs, and we handle the pickup.
Magic Valley mileage
Short runs and long ones from the Magic Valley
Drivers employed by Kimberly carriers split between 95 who stay within 100 miles and 156 who go beyond it, according to FMCSA registrations. If your truck is out on a long run when you decide to sell, give us the place it will park next and we will plan the collection there instead of back in town.
Thirty-three local carriers reported mileage to FMCSA, and their median truck covers 32,183 miles a year. Note the odometer reading in your first message; with the VIN, it answers most of what we would otherwise ask.
Kimberly’s three heaviest operators hold 52, 26 and 17 power units on FMCSA’s census, with 52, 27 and 22 drivers between them. Owners selling several units at once should send a list of VINs together, so every truck is collected on one plan rather than piece by piece.
Model years, inspected
Seventy Kimberly trucks stopped at the roadside
Seventy Kimberly-registered trucks went through FMCSA roadside inspections from September 2024 to August 2026, and half of them were built in 2019 or later, putting the median model year at 2019. Year, make and model are the first three things to put in your message to us.
A further figure from those FMCSA roadside inspection records: 38.6 percent of the 70 Kimberly trucks had ten or more model years behind them. Whatever year yours is, any annual inspection reports and service invoices you kept belong in the folder with the title when we arrive.
Dairies and feedlots
Where milk, cattle and corn set Kimberly’s loads
Milk leads Twin Falls County’s farm output, ahead of cattle and corn, across the 1,169 farms that USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture tallies around Kimberly. A truck that spends its days at a dairy or a feedlot is often parked on the farm itself, so give us the yard address and the name of whoever can let us through the gate.
Farm supplies are the declared cargo of 28 Kimberly carriers in the FMCSA census, alongside the 46 that move grain, feed or hay. If the truck is titled to the farm operation rather than to you personally, check whose name is on the title before we schedule, since that person signs it over.
Construction, manufacturing and the mine to the north
In 2023 the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts put 1,161 jobs in Kimberly, of which 155 were in manufacturing and 102 in construction. Dump trucks, flatbeds and service bodies from that work fit what we purchase, so describe the body and any equipment mounted on it.
Kimberly-area builders number 51 establishments in the Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns. The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists Ida-Ore, an industrial-mineral mine, 18.4 miles north of town; if your truck has hauled to a site like that, keep any site access records with the registration.
Kimberly pickups
Rail, title papers and where we pick up
West of Kimberly by 5.1 miles, the Twin Falls rail yard appears on the North American Rail Network, a short drive along the same farm-to-town route your truck likely uses. A truck left near the yard or anywhere between there and town is reachable where it sits; send the address and note whether a loaded trailer is still attached.
Idaho’s state title agency issues replacement titles, so if the original is lost, start that request before you contact us and mention it in your first message. Along with the title we will ask for the registration and a photo ID of the person named on it.
The questions we get asked in Kimberly
- My hay truck is parked out on a farm near Kimberly. Does the truck need to leave the farm before pickup?Twin Falls County holds 1,169 farms on USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, and we collect trucks from farm yards across it. Pass along the farm’s address and the name of whoever holds the gate key there.
- I run my own trucks for my business, not for hire. Does a private-fleet truck from Kimberly qualify?Private fleets make up 39 of the Kimberly carriers in FMCSA’s carrier census, and selling one of their trucks works the same way: the titled owner signs and we arrange collection.
- My truck sits close to the Twin Falls rail yard west of Kimberly; will you collect it there?The North American Rail Network places that yard 5.1 miles west of Kimberly, well within where we collect. Give us the exact spot and whether a trailer is attached.
