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

USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 821 farms in Calloway County, with soybeans, corn and tobacco at the top of the list. A grain truck or farm tractor from one of those operations is often parked at a barn or shed lot outside Murray rather than in town, so give us the road name and tell us whether a gate or lane needs opening when we come for it.

Grain, feed and hay show up as cargo for 54 Murray carriers, and farm supplies for 44, out of 217 active outfits on FMCSA’s carrier census. If your truck hauled harvest loads to the elevator or carried seed and fertilizer out to fields, photograph the bed or the hopper, the cab and the tires, and send the VIN so we can match the paperwork to the truck.

Murray S&G, a sand and gravel operation, is listed by the Mine Safety and Health Administration about 7.3 miles east of town. Ahart’s Hauling, another sand and gravel site, lies 8.5 miles north according to the same Mine Safety and Health Administration records. A dump truck that runs aggregate between those pits and job sites can be collected right where it sits at the end of a shift; send the yard address and a phone number for whoever holds the keys.

Further out, the Hickory Clay Mill appears in Mine Safety and Health Administration listings as an industrial-mineral mine roughly 22.3 miles north-west of Murray. If your tractor or tri-axle has worked that haul, keep the title and registration together with any service records you have, and tell us which site the truck is at so the pickup goes to the right gate.

General freight is the most common cargo among Murray carriers in FMCSA’s carrier census, at 70 of them, with machinery and large objects close behind at 55. Lowboys and heavy tractors that move equipment for farms and contractors fit that second group; when you contact us, say what trailer the tractor usually pulled and whether it is coupled now.

Per the FMCSA carrier census, 163 of the city’s carriers run private fleets, hauling their own goods rather than freight for hire, while 149 operate intrastate only and 68 cross state lines. A business truck that never left Kentucky still needs its title in the owner’s name; if the truck is titled to a company, have someone who can sign for the business on hand.

FMCSA roadside inspection records cover 953 trucks inspected between August 2024 and August 2026 for Murray-based carriers, and their median model year is 2024. Those FMCSA roadside inspection records put just 7 percent of the trucks at ten or more model years old. Whatever year yours is, the model year, make and VIN on the title are the first three things we ask for.

Murray’s 42 carriers that report mileage put their median at 6,583 miles a truck, according to FMCSA’s carrier census. The same census shows 1,476 drivers working within 100 miles of base and 1,325 going farther. Short-radius or long-haul, write down the current odometer reading and take a clear photo of the dash so the number on record matches the truck.

The biggest fleet registered in Murray with FMCSA’s carrier census reports 1,092 power units and 1,089 drivers; the next two list 320 and 188 power units. If you are moving several units out of a fleet like these, send a list with each VIN and where each truck is parked, and we can plan the collection yard by yard.

New registrations in FMCSA’s carrier census put 10 new carriers in Murray in 2025 and 7 in 2024. A small operator who started in the last year or two and now wants to sell should have the title, the current registration and any lien release together before we arrive; those are the papers that transfer the truck.

The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts for 2023 show 10,243 jobs in Murray, including 838 in manufacturing and 305 in construction, with 263 more in wholesale trade. Box trucks and straight trucks that served plants and distributors here are among what we collect; tell us whether the body has a liftgate and send a photo of the plate.

The Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns lists 70 construction establishments across Calloway County, from Murray out to the county line. A contractor’s dump truck, flatbed or water truck parked at a job site or shop can stay there for pickup; just confirm the site will be open and that someone can show us the truck.

• My soybean truck sits in a Calloway County barn lot. Must I haul it to a Murray address before you collect it?Calloway County’s 821 farms, counted by USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, spread trucks across a lot of rural roads, and we come to the farm. Send the address and tell us if the lane is soft or gated.

Do you load trucks out of a sand and gravel pit in Calloway County?Murray S&G sits about 7.3 miles east of town in Mine Safety and Health Administration records, and a truck at that pit or any other can be picked up on site. Name whoever at the pit will walk us to the truck.
• What papers should I have ready to sell a truck in Murray?Murray truck owners selling to us need the title in the seller’s name, the current registration and any lien release. Service records and photos of the cab, frame and tires help us confirm the truck before pickup.
• Will you take several tractors out of a private Murray fleet?FMCSA’s carrier census lists 163 private fleets among Murray’s 217 active carriers, and we buy single units or several at once from them. List each VIN beside the lot or farm where that truck is waiting.
