Eleven Mulberry carriers move grain, feed or hay
Of the 24 active carriers based in Mulberry on FMCSA’s carrier census, 11 list grain, feed and hay as a cargo they haul, and 6 list farm supplies. If your truck is a grain hopper tractor or a feed body that has spent harvests moving between fields and elevators, it is the kind of truck we buy here, and we collect it from the farm lot or shed where it is parked.
Corn, soybeans and hogs lead the 526 farms that USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture records across Clinton County. A truck tied to that work often sits idle between seasons, so tell us the yard or field address and whether a tractor-trailer can reach it, and have the title and registration together before we arrive.
Short, in-state work around Clinton County
FMCSA’s carrier census shows 22 of the town’s carriers operating intrastate and only 2 interstate, while 18 run as private fleets moving their own goods. A truck from a private farm or business fleet is just as welcome as one from a for-hire carrier; tell us which kind it was so the paperwork questions fit.
Mulberry drivers reported to FMCSA’s carrier census number 27 working within 100 miles and 22 beyond it. FMCSA’s carrier census also gives a median of 5,646 miles per truck across the 7 carriers that reported mileage. Have the odometer reading and the VIN ready when you contact us; those two lines start the conversation.
Gravel pits and a quarry north and west of town
The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists Purdy Materials, a sand and gravel operation 11 miles west of Mulberry, and the US Aggregates-Swisher Plant 14 miles to the north-west. Dump trucks and tri-axles that have hauled from pits like these are on our list; send photos of the box, the frame and the cab so what we see lines up with what you describe.
Seventeen miles north, the Delphi Plant crushed-stone quarry appears in Mine Safety and Health Administration records too. If your truck is parked at a quarry or contractor yard rather than at home, give us that address and a contact on site, and we plan the pickup there.
Rail yards to the west, a fuel terminal toward Lebanon
Two rail yards sit close on the west side: the Subaru of Indiana yard at 7.9 miles and a yard named South at 8.4 miles, both in the North American Rail Network kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. A day cab or sleeper that has shuttled freight to those sidings can be collected wherever it now stands.
To the south-east, 24.3 miles out, the Energy Information Administration lists the Lebanon petroleum product terminal. If your tractor has pulled tank trailers to or from it, mention that along with any inspection or service records you kept, so the truck’s history travels with the photos.
Lowboys, flatbeds
Flatbeds, lowboys and contractor trucks
Five Mulberry carriers on FMCSA’s carrier census haul machinery and large objects, and 10 carry general freight. Lowboys and flatbeds that move planters, combines or equipment between farms fit what we buy; tell us the trailer setup and whether the tractor is sold with it or on its own.
County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau records 5 construction establishments for the area, and the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts place 306 jobs there in 2023. A contractor’s single truck counts the same as a fleet unit to us; registration, title and a few clear photos are what we need to start.
Frankfort BMV
Frankfort’s BMV branch handles duplicate titles
Titles in this state come from the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles, which handles duplicates through its BMV branches. The Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles lists its nearest branch in Frankfort at 2103 In-28, Frankfort, 46041, about 8 miles from Mulberry, so a seller missing a title can apply for a duplicate there before the pickup.
If the title still names a lender or a former business, bring that up when you first contact us. The fleet sizes on FMCSA’s carrier census here run from 3 to 10 power units, and a small company truck often carries a business name on the title that has to match the seller’s paperwork.
