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

Quality Stone & Ready Mix Inc. runs a crushed-stone quarry 3.7 miles north of Shepherdsville, according to the Mine Safety and Health Administration. A dump truck or mixer that loads there may still be parked in the yard when you decide to sell, and that is fine: give us the quarry gate details and the name of whoever can let us in.

The Mine Safety and Health Administration also lists Bullitt County Stone Company 4.3 miles to the north-east and the Arcosa Brooks Plant #1682, an industrial-mineral mine, 4.7 miles north. If your tri-axle or tractor hauled out of either site, photograph the bed, the frame rails and the cab, and have the title in hand before we schedule the collection.

West of town, the Mine Safety and Health Administration lists Kosmos Cement Plant 11.9 miles out. Bulk cement tractors that shuttle between the kiln and job sites around Bullitt County can be sold from the plant lot itself, provided the registration and title name the same owner.

Eleven miles north, the Louisville rail intermodal ramp appears in the Bureau of Transportation Statistics listings, with the Transflo CSXT liquid bulk terminal 11.1 miles away in the same direction. Day cabs that drag containers or tank trailers to those gates are tractors we purchase, so send us the VIN, the odometer reading and the trailer type it usually pulled.

OSBORN, a rail yard up the line toward Louisville, sits 11.8 miles from Shepherdsville on the North American Rail Network that the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics maintain. A drayage tractor that lives near that yard does not need to come south to town; tell us the street address and we arrange pickup there.

Of the 419 active motor carriers that FMCSA’s carrier census places in Shepherdsville, 154 put general freight on their filings. If yours is a box truck or dry-van tractor from that group, have the title, the registration card and any service invoices together when you call.

FMCSA’s carrier census also counts 101 local carriers hauling machinery and large objects, 49 hauling logs, poles, beams and lumber, and 47 moving motor vehicles. Lowboys, log trucks and car haulers each sell with their trailers or without them; just tell us which you want to include.

Shepherdsville picked up 21 newly registered carriers in 2024 and another 17 in 2025, according to FMCSA’s census. If you started a one-truck operation in those years and are now stepping away, the sale works the same as for a long-standing fleet: title, registration and photos first.

Of the 419 carriers, 319 run intrastate only, 100 cross state lines and 262 are private fleets hauling their own goods, according to FMCSA’s carrier census. A contractor or wholesaler selling a truck that never carried for hire just needs the Kentucky title and proof the registration is current.

On FMCSA’s carrier census, 840 drivers here work within 100 miles of base and 467 range beyond it. For 85 carriers that reported mileage, FMCSA figures show a median of 12,500 miles per truck a year, so tell us the odometer reading up front and we will ask about the routes behind it.

Three fleets registered here run 123, 52 and 46 power units, with 114, 50 and 46 drivers, on FMCSA’s census. A fleet manager parting with several units can send one list of VINs and yard locations, and we will plan the collections from it.

Transportation and warehousing account for 6,010 of the 16,917 jobs counted here in 2023, or 35.5 percent, in the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts. Yard tractors and straight trucks that serve the distribution buildings are usually parked on the property, so tell us whether a guard or dock office has to clear the visit.

The same LEHD figures show 1,713 manufacturing jobs, 1,581 in wholesale trade and 198 in construction. County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau records 77 construction establishments and 9 warehousing establishments, and a dump truck or stake bed from any of those firms can be collected straight from the job site if the title is clear.

Between August 2024 and August 2026, inspectors stopped 226 trucks belonging to Shepherdsville carriers, and FMCSA roadside inspection records give that group a median model year of 2016.5, with 45 percent at ten model years or older. Whatever the model year of yours, photos of the cab, the data plate and the odometer give us what we need to start.

Bullitt County has 420 farms, with soybeans, corn and cattle at the top, in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture. Grain trucks and cattle haulers tend to sit in a barn lot between seasons; a farm truck can be sold from there, and the Kentucky title is the paperwork it needs.

• My dump truck is still sitting in a quarry yard north of Shepherdsville; will you pick it up from the quarry?Quality Stone & Ready Mix sits 3.7 miles north and Bullitt County Stone 4.3 miles north-east, per the Mine Safety and Health Administration, and we collect from either yard. Pass along who runs the scale house and when that Bullitt County yard opens its gate.
• I only hauled inside Kentucky; is the sale any different for an intrastate truck?Intrastate operators make up 319 of the 419 carriers on FMCSA’s census for Shepherdsville, so most sellers here are in the same position. You need the Kentucky title and current registration, nothing tied to interstate authority.
• My tractor is parked out by Fort Knox; does it have to come into Shepherdsville first?Fort Knox lies 11.1 miles west of Shepherdsville on Bureau of Transportation Statistics listings, and the truck can stay wherever it is parked out there. Send the address and the name of someone who can show us the truck.
• What should I send first for a grain truck from a Bullitt County farm?With 420 farms in the county on USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, the first things we want are photos of the cab and bed, the VIN and the title. If the title is in a family member’s name, tell us that at the start.
