Quarry trucks from the Bullitt County stone pits
Two crushed-stone quarries, Bullitt County Stone Company and Smith Farm Mine, each sit about 5 miles south-west of Heritage Creek in Mine Safety and Health Administration records. Dump trucks and tri-axles that run stone out of pits like those are trucks we buy, and we collect them at the yard, the driveway or the quarry gate, wherever they are parked.
If your dump truck has been hauling from either quarry, have the title in your name and the registration together before you call. A few photos of the bed, the hoist and the cab, plus the VIN, let us ask the right questions about that specific truck from the first conversation.
Arcosa Brooks Plant #1682, an industrial-mineral mine, appears in the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list roughly 6.2 miles west. A truck that served that plant can be picked up on site if the operator allows access; tell us the gate arrangements so the pickup is planned around them.
Ramps north-west of Heritage Creek
Container tractors off the Appliance Park and Buechel ramps
North-west of Heritage Creek, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics places the Louisville Appliance Park intermodal ramp about 6.8 miles away and the Buechel ramp at roughly 7.7 miles. Day cabs and sleepers that dray boxes between those ramps and nearby warehouses fit squarely into what we purchase.
The North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, also shows the APPLIANCE PARK rail yard around 6 miles out in the same direction. If your tractor pulls chassis from that yard, send the VIN and the odometer reading first; nearly every follow-up question we have depends on those two.
Gather a drayage tractor’s service records into one folder before pickup. They are not required, but they let the person who looks at the tractor in Heritage Creek see its history alongside the photos you sent.
River and tank work
Tankers serving the Louisville port and Transflo CSXT
Louisville-Jefferson Port sits about 7.2 miles north-west of town, according to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, and the same agency lists Transflo CSXT, a liquid bulk terminal, roughly 7.8 miles to the west. Tank tractors and the trailers they pull between rail and road at a transload site like Transflo are part of what we take on.
When a tanker has served terminal work, let us know which products it carried and keep any cleaning or inspection paperwork with the title. That way the questions you get are about the truck itself rather than the places it has been.
Farms around Louisville
Horse haulers and cattle trucks in southern Jefferson County
Around Heritage Creek, farm operators across Jefferson County number 264 in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, with equine, cattle and soybeans listed as the leading categories. Livestock trucks, horse-hauling rigs and grain trucks used on those farms are all trucks we buy.
Off Heritage Creek’s paved streets, a farm truck may be parked by a horse barn or out past a soybean field. Tell us how the truck is reached, whether a gate needs unlocking and whether the ground holds a tow truck, and we arrange collection around the farm’s own schedule.
Farm plates and titles held in a family or farm business name are common here. Have the name on the title match the person signing, or bring the paperwork that shows who can sign for the operation.
Elections Center, Liberty Street
A missing title goes to the Liberty Street clerk
Kentucky titles are issued through the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet by way of county clerk offices, and for Heritage Creek that office is the Jefferson County Clerk at the Elections Center, 1000 E. Liberty Street, Louisville, about 12.9 miles from town by the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet’s listing. A Heritage Creek seller without the title in hand applies for the duplicate at that Liberty Street counter first, and we book collection after it arrives.
Bring your registration and identification to the clerk, and if a lender was ever on the title, a lien release from that lender. Once the replacement is in hand, a call to us is all it takes to set up collection in Heritage Creek.
