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

Ludlow is a Kenton County town with a rail yard at its north-east edge and petroleum terminals within about a mile on either side. Tankers, tractors and dump trucks that work those sites and the pits to the west are the trucks we collect here.

Tracks a block away

The Ludlow yard and DeCoursey down the line

The North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, places the Ludlow rail yard just 0.2 miles north-east of the town centre. A tractor that shuttles trailers or containers between that yard and nearby docks may be parked within sight of the tracks, so give us the street and the nearest crossing when you write in.

Seven point two miles south-east, the same rail network lists the DeCoursey yard. If your day cab has spent its shifts between Ludlow and DeCoursey, tell us which lot it sits on now and who holds the gate key, and send the VIN with a clear photo of the registration card.

Fuel on the riverbank

Energy Information Administration records show the Covington petroleum product terminal 0.7 miles north-east of Ludlow and Bromley Terminal KY about 1.1 miles to the south-west. Tank trucks and fuel tractors that load at either one are among the trucks we buy here.

For a tanker that has loaded at Bromley or Covington, keep its tank inspection reports and any service log in the cab. Those papers, plus photos of the tank, the cab and the plate, tell us what the truck is before we ever see it, and the collection can happen at the yard where it is parked.

West of town the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists Belleview Sand & Gravel Inc at 16.3 miles and Petersburg Sand at 17.7 miles. Dump trucks and tri-axles that haul from those pits can be picked up at the pit, at a contractor’s yard or at your home, whichever is easiest for you.

Crushed stone comes from two quarries on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list: MLC - Verona, 20.9 miles south-west, and the Underground Black River Operation, 22.6 miles south-east. If your truck runs a stone route out of Verona, say so and include photos of the bed, the hoist and the cab so the description matches the photos.

Ludlow’s freight workforce

Jobs tied to moving freight

Of the 1,601 jobs counted in Ludlow for 2023 in the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts, 967, or 60.4 percent, were in transportation and warehousing. For a seller, that means the truck you want to sell may be a company unit, an owner-operator tractor or a yard spotter, and each sells the same way: title in hand, the name on it matching yours, and photos from all four sides.

Manufacturing accounted for 87 of those Ludlow jobs, or 5.4 percent, in the same LEHD figures. Box trucks and straight trucks that make plant deliveries qualify too; bring the registration and any maintenance records you kept.

Job sites and Kenton farms

Work trucks off the job site and the farm

Eight construction establishments are on the Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns tally for Ludlow, and a dump truck, flatbed or utility body that has worked for one of them can be collected from the job site or the shop lot, as long as someone can show us where it is parked.

Across Kenton County, USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 453 farms, with honey, equine and goats as the top products. A horse hauler’s tractor or a farm flatbed sells to us with the title and the registration, and we come out to the barn or the field gate to collect it.
