Quarry and river gravel sites around Lyndon
Jefferson County Stone, the crushed-stone pit 4.6 miles east of Lyndon, appears on the Mine Safety and Health Administration roster. A dump truck or end-dump tractor that hauls out of that pit is often parked at the quarry or at a yard close by, so send us the address where it sits and the name of whoever can let us through the gate.
Seven miles west, toward the Ohio, the same federal mine agency records two sand and gravel operations, Bernhard Oppermann and Dredge Miss Kate, plus the Louisville Yard mineral processing plant. If your truck has carried aggregate between those river sites and job sites in the county, photograph the body, the hoist and the cab, and keep the title in hand so we can confirm ownership from the first call.
Rail yards, the intermodal ramp and the riverport
According to the North American Rail Network kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, the Ford Truck Plant rail yard lies 4 miles north-east of town and the Appliance Park yard 7.3 miles south-west. Day cabs that shuttle between those yards and nearby docks can be collected where they are parked; tell us which lot and who holds the keys.
Louisville-Jefferson Port sits 6.5 miles south-west of Lyndon, and the Louisville Appliance Park intermodal ramp is 6.7 miles out in the same direction, both listed by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. For a tractor that has pulled containers or river freight off those sites, have the VIN, the registration and any service records together before you reach out, and the rest of our questions follow from them.
Lyndon motor carriers by freight and route
FMCSA’s carrier census shows 29 active motor carriers based in Lyndon, with 14 of them hauling general freight, 6 moving machinery and large objects, and 2 each carrying dry bulk commodities and farm supplies. Whether yours is a flatbed for machinery or a van for general loads, send photos of the cab, frame and tires along with the title.
Of those Lyndon carriers, FMCSA records 16 running intrastate only and 13 authorised for interstate work, while 16 operate as private fleets carrying their own goods. FMCSA driver figures put 34 drivers within a 100-mile radius and 15 beyond it, so a truck may be at a shop in town or at a lot well outside the county; give us the exact location either way.
Lyndon owner-operators and handful-of-tractor outfits
The biggest fleets in FMCSA’s census for Lyndon list 5 power units with 6 drivers, 4 units with 2 drivers and 3 units with 2 drivers. An owner selling one or two units from a fleet that size can sell each truck on its own, with its own title and registration, while the rest keep working.
New carrier registrations in the same federal census number 4 in 2025 and 3 in 2024. Across 5 Lyndon carriers that report mileage, FMCSA gives a median of 30,000 miles per truck a year; note your odometer reading when you contact us, as it is one of the first facts we ask for.
Lyndon warehouse, wholesale and builder jobs
Lyndon counts 14,378 jobs in the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts for 2023, with 815 in transportation and warehousing and 435 in wholesale trade. Box trucks and straight trucks that serve those warehouses are often kept at a loading dock, so tell us whether the truck is inside a fenced yard and when the gate is open.
The same LEHD figures place 197 jobs in construction and 131 in manufacturing, and County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau records 14 construction establishments. For a contractor’s dump truck or flatbed, gather the title, the current registration and any service invoices before we arrange collection at the job site or shop.
Horse, cattle and soybean farms in Jefferson County
USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 264 farms in Jefferson County, with equine, cattle and soybeans as the leading categories. Livestock haulers, grain trucks and tractors used for horse or cattle moves are trucks we purchase from the county’s farms.
Trucks on a farm are often parked in a barn lot or field rather than on a paved yard. Let us know whether a pickup crew can reach it from the road, and have the title signed over only when we are there to collect.
The questions we get asked in Lyndon
- Can I sell one tractor from my small Lyndon fleet and keep the others hauling?Lyndon’s biggest fleets in FMCSA’s carrier census list 3 to 5 power units, and each truck sells on its own title. Send the VIN and title for the one you are selling and the rest stay on the road.
