Sell your semi truck for cash in Jackson the easy and convenient way

We buy all commercial trucks — sleeper trucks, log trucks, day cabs, dump trucks, grain hauls and mixers.

Jackson, in Breathitt County, has coal mines and tipples to its south and west and log trucks, coal haulers and lowboys working the hollows between them.

Selling a truck in Jackson? Tell us about it and we'll take it from there.

Howards Creek, Combs Branch and the mine roads

The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists Howards Creek Mine 8.9 miles south of Jackson and the Combs Branch Job 13.1 miles south, both coal operations. We collect a tractor or dump truck from a mine office or a lot beside either site, and it can stay parked there until we arrive.

When you get in touch, tell us which of the two mines the truck served and who controls the gate. A name and phone number for whoever holds the key to the lot lets us set the collection with them directly, so you do not have to be standing beside the truck that day.

Tipples and loadouts

St. Helens to Kentucky River Loading

West of town, St. Helens Tipple is a coal preparation plant 15.2 miles out, and Kentucky River Loading, another preparation plant, sits 21.7 miles to the south-east, both on Mine Safety and Health Administration records. Coal haulers in Breathitt County shuttle between pits and plants like these, and a truck retired from that run is one we buy.

Take photos of the cab, the bed or trailer, the frame and the tires, and send the VIN with them. If the truck sits at a loadout yard, a photo of where it is parked helps us judge the access before anyone heads out from Jackson.

Two rail yards lie south-east of Jackson on the North American Rail Network kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics: Crawford at 22 miles and Hazard at 23.4 miles. Trucks that move coal or freight between the mines and those yards spend their working life on that short corridor.

If your truck is parked near Hazard or Crawford instead of at home in Jackson, that is fine; give us the street or the yard name. We arrange collection at the place the truck already sits, and you can handle the sale by phone and email from wherever you are.

Logs, coal and heavy machinery out of Breathitt

Jackson-area carriers number 144 active in FMCSA’s carrier census, and of those, 40 list general freight, 30 carry logs, poles, beams and lumber, 25 haul coal and coke, and 24 move machinery and large objects. That mix means we see log trucks, coal dump trucks, lowboy tractors and box trucks from this county, and we take each kind.

Private fleets account for 89 of those 144 carriers in the FMCSA census, and 131 operate only inside Kentucky against 13 that cross state lines. If your truck belongs to a business that hauls its own material, have the registration and the name the title is held under ready before we talk; a company-titled truck needs someone authorised to sign for that company.

Sellers with several units to move at once can list them together in one message, VIN by VIN, and we will work through them as a group.

Drivers who stay close to the hollows

Among drivers working for carriers based around Jackson, FMCSA’s census counts 268 inside a hundred-mile radius and 69 beyond it. For 24 of those carriers the census reports a median of 14,781 miles per truck per year.

Those figures describe a fleet built for local work between mine, mill and yard. When you contact us, give the odometer reading with the VIN, the engine make if you know it, and whether the truck is a day cab, a dump or a tractor; that is enough for us to start.

FMCSA roadside inspection records between September 2024 and August 2026 cover 146 trucks from carriers here, with a median model year of 2013 and 57.5 percent ten or more years old.

Send any service records or past inspection reports you have kept along with your photos. They give us the truck’s history in your own paperwork, and nothing about the sale depends on having a complete file.

The Breathitt County Clerk handles a missing title

The Kentucky Transportation Cabinet issues titles through county clerk offices, and the Breathitt County Clerk sits at 1137 Main Street, Jackson, 41339, just 0.9 miles from the centre of town. If the title to your truck has gone missing, a duplicate is applied for at that counter.

Bring your identification and the truck’s VIN to the clerk, and if a lender was ever recorded on the title, bring the lien release too. Tell us early if a duplicate is pending at the clerk’s counter, so we can plan the collection around the day it is in your hands.
