Tank work off the Bromley and Covington racks

The Energy Information Administration places the COVINGTON petroleum product terminal about 2 miles east of Fort Wright, close enough that a fuel tractor can be parked at home between loads. If yours pulled tank trailers out of that gate, gather the title, the current Kentucky registration and any inspection reports before you call, and tell us whether the trailer is part of the sale.

Roughly 2.9 miles north-west, toward the river, sits BROMLEY TERMINAL KY, a second petroleum product terminal on the Energy Information Administration’s list. A tractor that alternated between Bromley and Covington may sit in a yard near either one; give us the street address and the name of whoever holds the gate key so collection can be planned around that lot.

Hazmat haulers usually keep a file of tank tests and driver logs. Those papers belong with the sale, so scan or photograph them along with shots of the cab, the frame and the fifth wheel, and send the whole set together.

A day cab parked near the Ludlow or DeCoursey tracks

Two rail yards appear near Fort Wright on the North American Rail Network kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics: LUDLOW, about 3.1 miles north, and DECOURSEY, about 4.6 miles south-east. Day cabs that shuttle freight to and from yards like these often stay parked by the tracks, and we can collect from a yard lot if you clear access first.

For a truck that worked the DeCoursey side, photographs of the VIN plate and the odometer are the first two things we ask for. Add the year, make and model, and say whether the title is in your name or a company’s, since that decides who signs at pickup.

Gravel pits west, quarries south

Sand and gravel move out of two sites to the west, according to the Mine Safety and Health Administration: Belleview Sand & Gravel Inc at about 16.1 miles and PLANT #1 at about 18.3 miles. Dump trucks and end-dump tractors that ran those pits can be left where they sit; send us a pin for the pit or the yard and we route the pickup there.

Further out, the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists two crushed-stone quarries, MLC - Verona about 18.8 miles south-west and the Underground Black River Operation roughly 19.8 miles south-east. If your truck hauled stone from either one, include its axle configuration and body type when you write, along with the registration card.

Trucking, building and wholesale work

Transportation and warehousing filled 264 positions in Fort Wright in 2023, a 4.4 percent slice of the 5,961 total in the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts. Box trucks, straight trucks and tractors from that line of work are all things we buy; a business owner selling one should have the company title and a letter showing who may sign for it.

Construction accounted for 118 of those positions, or 2 percent, in the same LEHD figures, and wholesale trade for 99, or 1.7 percent. Contractors with a flatbed or a dump body, and distributors with a delivery truck, can send one listing per vehicle with photos and the VIN for each.

Hay, horse and goat hauling in Kenton County

Kenton County had 453 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, and its leading listed products were honey, equine and goats. A livestock hauler or farm flatbed that carried horses or goats around the county is a truck we purchase, and it can be collected from the barn lot.

A Kenton County stock trailer rig or flatbed may carry the farm’s name on its title instead of yours. Check the name printed on the title before you contact us; if it has gone missing, the state’s title agency issues a duplicate, and having that in hand keeps the sale simple.
