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

Fifth Ward is ringed by cropland: USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts 868 farms across Avoyelles Parish, with soybeans, corn and rice leading the harvest. Grain trucks, hopper trailers and the tractors that pull them out of those fields are trucks we purchase, whether they sit in a shed, a barn lot or at the end of a turn row.

A farm truck often spends the off-season parked beside the equipment it hauls for. When you get in touch, tell us the road and the gate it sits behind, and send photos of the cab, the bed or hopper, and the VIN plate. A sale can be lined up around planting or harvest so the truck leaves when it suits your calendar.

Builders keep dump trucks busy around Fifth Ward, and County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau puts the parish’s construction firms at 23, each with flatbeds or service bodies that wait between jobs in a yard where we can pick one up.

If a contractor’s truck carries a body or equipment added after it left the factory, say what it is and send a photo of it. Have the registration and any service records together in the cab or the office so the paperwork is in one place on collection day.

Heading west for 11.5 miles brings you to the Latanier rail yard, which the North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, also lists a second time at 15.2 miles to the north-west. Day cabs and flatbeds that shuttle freight between parish farms and those tracks are part of what we buy.

A tractor that has worked the Latanier run may be parked at a shipper’s lot rather than at home. Give us the address where it actually is, and tell us whether a lowboy or a straight tow can reach it.

On the Energy Information Administration’s list, a petroleum product terminal sits 23.6 miles to the north-west of Fifth Ward, near Alexandria. At that same distance and heading, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics lists the Placid Refining Company LLC liquid bulk terminal. Tank trucks and tractors pulling tankers to those gates are welcome here.

For a tanker, list the tank’s material and compartment count and keep any inspection paperwork you hold with the title. If the tank is still mounted, say so, so the pickup is planned for the full unit.

Some 22.8 miles west, the Central Louisiana Regional port appears in Bureau of Transportation Statistics records. The Bureau of Transportation Statistics also places NG Esler Field 20.8 miles north-west and NG Camp Beauregard 22.3 miles out in that same direction from Fifth Ward.

If your truck is parked near the port or close to one of those installations instead of in Fifth Ward, we collect it there. Send the exact location along with a note on whether a gate pass or escort is needed to reach it.

Titles in Louisiana come from the Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles, and its OMV offices listing places Avoyelles Tag and Title, LLC at 458 Acton Road, Suite C, Marksville, 71351, about 5.3 miles from Fifth Ward. A seller who cannot find the title can start a replacement there.

Bring the VIN, your registration and photo ID to the Acton Road office. If a lender still holds a lien, ask the lender for the release before you visit, so the replacement title can be issued in your name alone.
