Aggregate haulers between Swayzee and its two quarries
The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists Calcium Products Co, a crushed-stone quarry 3.2 miles south-east of Swayzee, and Pipe Creek Jr, another crushed-stone pit at 3.3 miles in the same direction. A dump truck or tractor that hauls aggregate out of either one may well be parked at the quarry when you decide to sell, and we can collect it there once you tell us the gate and who holds the keys.
Further east, Grant County Sand and Gravel appears in Mine Safety and Health Administration records 15.8 miles from town, and the PERU PLANT sand and gravel operation sits 20.8 miles to the north-west. If your truck splits its week between these pits, send photos taken where it stands, along with the VIN, so we can plan the pickup at the right site.
Quarry trucks often carry their own service history in a binder or a shop’s computer. Pull those records together before you call, and have the title in your name ready to sign over at collection.
Grain, feed and lumber haulers registered around Swayzee
FMCSA’s carrier census counts 15 active motor carriers based in Swayzee, and five of them list grain, feed and hay as cargo while another five list general freight. Three carry logs, poles, beams or lumber, and two haul garbage and refuse. If you run a straight truck, a hopper tractor or a log trailer rig out of one of these operations, those are exactly the vehicles we purchase.
Eleven of those 15 carriers are private fleets moving their own goods, according to the same federal census, and 13 operate intrastate while only 2 cross state lines. For a seller that usually means the truck lives on a farm lot or behind a shop in town, so give us that address rather than a terminal.
Among the fleets the federal census records here, the biggest runs 9 power units with 15 drivers, the next 5 power units with 9 drivers, and a third a single unit with 4 drivers. Whether you are selling one tractor or thinning a small fleet, list each VIN and where each truck is kept.
Short-haul work across Grant County
Drivers attached to Swayzee carriers mostly stay close: FMCSA’s carrier census places 36 of them inside a hundred-mile radius and 8 beyond it. A truck that works local routes like these is usually back in its yard each night, which makes it straightforward for us to reach.
One new carrier registered in Swayzee in 2025 and none in 2024, the federal census shows. If you are winding down an operation you started recently, have the registration and any annual inspection reports on hand along with the title.
Tell us how the truck is set up, whether it is a day cab, a sleeper, a dump body or a flatbed, and send clear photos of the cab, the frame and the plate.
Hog barns, soybean ground and the trucks that serve them
Grant County had 457 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, with corn, soybeans and hogs listed as the top products. Grain trucks, livestock haulers and farm tractors that work those fields at harvest are trucks we buy, and many of them sit in a barn or machine shed between seasons.
If your grain truck is registered to the farm rather than to you personally, check that the name on the title matches whoever will sign it. Bring the farm’s paperwork together with any service records from the local shop.
A seasonal truck can be collected from the field edge or the farmstead. Give us directions to the shed, since rural addresses near Swayzee can be hard to find from a map alone.
Wholesale and rail
Warehouse jobs and the GOODMAN yard
The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts recorded 206 jobs located in Swayzee in 2023, and wholesale trade accounted for 51 of them, a 24.8 percent share. Box trucks and tractors that move goods for those wholesalers fit what we purchase.
On the North American Rail Network kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, the GOODMAN rail yard lies 6.6 miles north-east of town and the TIPTON yard 19.6 miles south-west. If your truck shuttles freight to either yard, note which one when you contact us.
North-west of Swayzee, the Energy Information Administration lists the PERU petroleum product terminal at 22.3 miles, and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics places Grissom ARB, a military installation, 19.9 miles in that direction too. Tank trucks serving the terminal belong on our list as well; send the tank’s inspection paperwork with the photos.
