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

Cave Run Stone, a crushed-stone quarry the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists 13.4 miles south-east of Morehead, is the closer of the two pits near town. A dump truck or tractor that has hauled aggregate out of there can stay parked at the yard or at your place; give us the address and someone who can let us onto the property.

The second quarry, Menifee Stone, lies 19.1 miles south-west in the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s listing. If your rig worked that run, send clear photos of the bed or trailer, the cab and the VIN plate, and note which quarry it served so our questions start in the right place.

FMCSA’s carrier census shows 189 active motor carriers based around Morehead, with 58 listing general freight and 43 listing logs, poles, beams and lumber. Log trucks, flatbeds and dry vans all fit what we collect here, so tell us the body type and the trailer, if one goes with it.

Machinery and large objects appear on 43 carrier registrations and motor vehicles on 33, again per the federal carrier census. Lowboys, step-decks and car haulers from those outfits should be listed with their axle setup and the paperwork for any trailer that is part of the sale.

Of those 189 carriers, the FMCSA census counts 154 as intrastate and 35 as interstate, and 127 run as private fleets moving their own goods. A truck kept in-state may carry only Kentucky registration; have that card and the title together before you call.

Roadside inspectors checked 59 Morehead-area trucks from September 2024 to August 2026, and FMCSA’s inspection records for that set show a 2013 median model year and 62.7 percent at ten years or older. Whatever the year of yours, read us the VIN and the model year off the title so the details line up from the first message.

The three biggest local operations each run between 13 and 18 power units, by the carrier census FMCSA keeps, with 9 to 15 drivers apiece. An owner selling two or three units from a small outfit like that can list them together, each with its own VIN and title.

New registrations have been modest: the federal carrier census logged 8 new carriers here in 2024 and 4 in 2025. If you are closing a recently opened authority, keep the USDOT number handy, since it helps us match the truck to the registration.

Drivers working within 100 miles number 265, against 131 who go farther, in FMCSA’s carrier census for the area. If your truck works local routes and sits at a home yard in Rowan County, give us that yard’s address for the pickup.

For the 34 carriers reporting mileage, the median truck covered 15,412 miles a year, again from the FMCSA census. Write down the current odometer reading when you photograph the dash; it is one of the first things we ask for.

Transportation and warehousing account for 445 of the 7,632 jobs counted in 2023 by the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts, or 5.8 percent. The same LEHD figures give manufacturing and wholesale trade 54 jobs each. Box trucks and tractors from warehouse and delivery work here belong on the list we buy, with service records if you kept them.

Rowan County’s building trades number 28 construction establishments in the Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns. Their dump trucks, flatbeds and service bodies can be collected from the job site or the shop lot, wherever they sit.

Rowan County had 277 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, with cattle, horses and hogs leading. A livestock hauler, grain truck or farm tractor-trailer parked out on the property is fine; tell us how the gate and lane are reached.

• Can you pick up an aggregate dump truck sitting at the Cave Run Stone quarry rather than in Morehead itself?Cave Run Stone is 13.4 miles south-east of town on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s listing, and we collect from the quarry itself. Give us the name of whoever runs the quarry gate and we will line up entry with them.
• Will you collect a lumber-hauling log truck kept on a Rowan County woodlot or home place?Logs, poles, beams and lumber appear on 43 local carrier registrations in FMCSA’s carrier census, and those trucks are part of what we buy. Photos of the log bunks and cab, the VIN, and whose name sits on the title are what we need first.
• My truck is a 2013 like the local median. Should I mention anything special?FMCSA roadside inspection records give 2013 as the median model year for 59 trucks inspected around Morehead. Just send the VIN, odometer reading, title and registration, the same as for any other year.
