Rail on the north-west side
Toyota Autoramp, Georgetown Intermodal and the ramp beside them
The North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, places the Toyota Autoramp rail yard 0.6 miles north-west of Georgetown and Georgetown Intermodal 1 mile out in the same direction. If your tractor or car hauler is parked in a lot on that side of town, send us the street address and the name of whoever controls the gate, and the pickup gets planned around that access.
A rail intermodal ramp listed as Georgetown, KY shows up 1.1 miles north-west in Bureau of Transportation Statistics records. Day cabs that shuttle boxes off a ramp that close to town often sit in a yard rather than a driveway; tell us which yard, have the title in the registered owner’s name, and keep the current registration card with the truck.
A private fleet selling a truck it registered in the company’s name should have someone with signing authority ready to put that name on the title.
General freight is the most common cargo, with 124 carriers listing it, followed by machinery and large objects at 77, grain, feed and hay at 49, and motor vehicles at 41, according to FMCSA’s carrier census. So a Georgetown seller may be holding a dry van tractor, a lowboy rig, a grain hauler or a car carrier; photograph the trailer coupling and the body as well as the cab, whichever one you have.
FMCSA registrations show 16 new carriers in Georgetown during 2025 and 12 in 2024. If you are one of those newer outfits and the truck is still financed, tell us the lender at the start so the lien release can be lined up alongside the title.
Short local runs and longer hauls
Carriers here report 502 drivers working within 100 miles and 652 going beyond that radius, per FMCSA’s carrier census. A truck that runs long hauls may be out of town when you contact us, so give us the place it will be parked between loads and we will arrange collection there.
Write the current odometer reading down next to the VIN before you get in touch; those two numbers answer most of our first questions.
The three largest fleets on FMCSA’s carrier census for the city run 188, 74 and 68 power units, with 333, 68 and 80 drivers. If you manage a fleet of that size and are selling several units at once, send a list of VINs and where each one is parked, and we can work through them together.
What the roadside inspections recorded
FMCSA roadside inspection records from August 2024 to August 2026 cover 264 trucks inspected around Georgetown, with a median model year of 2023. Keep your own inspection reports with the title; they give us a dated record of the truck in your hands.
Whatever year yours is, tell us the year, make and model up front, along with any service records you have kept, and we will ask about the rest.
The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists Nally & Gibson Georgetown, a crushed-stone quarry, 3.6 miles south of town, and Bourbon Limestone Company 13.8 miles to the east. Dump trucks and tri-axles that haul out of a quarry are often parked at the pit or a contractor’s yard; tell us which, and whether a loader or gate key is needed to reach the truck.
Two Lexington petroleum product terminals sit 13.8 miles south on Energy Information Administration listings, and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics places the RJ Corman liquid bulk terminal 14.2 miles south. If yours is a tanker tractor that loads at those terminals, have the title and registration together and say whether the tank trailer is part of the sale.
County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau show 88 construction establishments in the area, and LEHD job counts put construction employment at 431. A contractor selling a dump or flatbed can leave it at the job yard; give us the address and a contact who will be there.
Factory jobs, horse farms and tobacco
The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts for 2023 record 23,896 jobs in Georgetown: 10,575 in manufacturing, 572 in transportation and warehousing and 218 in wholesale trade. Trucks that move parts and finished goods for those employers are trucks we buy, whether they belong to an owner-operator or a company fleet.
Scott County has 781 farms according to USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, with equine, cattle and tobacco leading. A farm truck or livestock hauler parked behind a barn is fine where it is; send directions to the barn and photos of the truck in daylight.
County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau count three warehousing establishments in the area. If your truck is parked at a warehouse dock, tell us the dock hours so collection happens when someone is there to let us in.
