Five miles to the gate
Trucks parked on the installation’s south-west side
Fort Johnson, a military installation listed by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, lies 5.1 miles north-east of Fort Polk North. If your pickup, box truck or tractor is parked on a driveway or lot on this side of the installation, give us the street address and any gate or access instructions, and we arrange collection there rather than asking you to haul it anywhere.
When the owner has already left the area, a truck can still be sold from here. Tell us who holds the keys locally and where the title is; with the VIN and a few photos of the cab, frame and tires we can work through the sale while you are elsewhere.
Siding on the Leesville side
The Leesville rail yard, six miles over
Six miles west, at 5.9 on the North American Rail Network kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, the LEESVILLE rail yard marks the nearest freight siding to town. Day cabs and straight trucks that shuttle loads to and from a yard like that are among the vehicles we take on; note the make, model and model year when you write to us.
If your tractor stays parked near the Leesville tracks between runs, a pin or cross street is enough for us to find it. Send photos of the fifth wheel, the sleeper or box, and the dash with the odometer showing.
South on the rails
A gravel plant and a southern rail siding
Southward, the DERIDDER rail yard appears 19.2 miles away in the North American Rail Network, which places a second rail point within reach of anyone hauling out of Fort Polk North. A truck based closer to DeRidder than to town is still one we will come to; just say which town it sits nearer.
The Mine Safety and Health Administration records Plant 1343-Emerald Rock/Cooper, a sand and gravel operation, 19.8 miles south-west. Dump trucks, end-dump tractors and water trucks used around aggregate sites are on our list; if yours has served that plant, mention the body type and send a picture of the bed with the tailgate in view.
Livestock country around town
Across Vernon Parish, 429 farms are counted by USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, with cattle, equine and sheep heading the list. Ranchers selling a flatbed, a stock-trailer tractor or a feed truck from one of those operations can have it collected from the pasture gate or barn yard.
For a farm truck, the title in the operator’s name matters more than anything else, and a current registration helps. If the truck carries farm plates, say so at the start so the paperwork question is settled early.
Work inside town limits
Vans and box trucks from the town’s own employers
In 2023 the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts (LODES) placed 408 jobs within Fort Polk North itself. Service vans, utility bodies and small box trucks belonging to the people who fill those roles are just as welcome as a heavy tractor.
Whatever the size, a short note on how the vehicle was used, plus the service records you still have, gives us the picture we need. Missing records are not a reason to hold back; tell us what you know and we will ask about the rest.
Leesville OMV stop
The Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles handles titles across the state, and its office list includes One Stop Auto Title & Notary, LLC at 1100 South 3rd Street Suite A, Leesville, 71446, one of the OMV offices and 5.7 miles from Fort Polk North. That is the stop for a duplicate if your title has gone missing.
Bring photo ID and the VIN when you go, and if a lender is still on the title, ask for the lien release while you are at the counter. Once you have a clean title in hand, send us a photo of the front and back and we can move ahead.
