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

Of the 34 active carriers based in Homer, FMCSA’s carrier census lists 16 that haul logs, poles, beams and lumber, and 18 that carry general freight. If your tractor has pulled a log trailer through the woods around Homer, tell us whether the trailer goes with it or stays behind, and send a photo of each so we know what we are collecting.

Machinery and large objects make up the cargo of 8 Homer carriers, according to the federal carrier census, and the same number list oilfield equipment. A truck set up for heavy or oversized loads often carries a winch, a headache rack or a lowboy hookup; list that equipment by name when you write to us, so the description matches the photos you send.

Twenty Homer carriers are authorized for interstate work and 14 stay inside Louisiana, FMCSA’s records show, and 14 run private fleets moving their own goods. Whichever kind you run, the truck can be collected where it is parked, whether that is a yard on the edge of town or a job site in another state; send us the address and a contact who can let us in.

Drivers working for Homer carriers split 169 on short local runs and 142 on longer routes, per the carrier census. For the 11 local carriers that report mileage, the median truck covers 20,504 miles a year on FMCSA’s figures. Jot down the VIN plate and the current odometer figure on your Homer truck first, since we start every conversation from those.

The biggest fleet registered in Homer runs 120 power units and 180 drivers, while the next two run 28 and 15 trucks, by the count in FMCSA’s carrier census. If you manage several units from one of these yards, send us the VINs together and we will look at the whole group in one conversation.

New operators keep appearing here too: the federal carrier census shows three new carriers registered in Homer in 2024 and one in 2025. An owner-operator who started recently and is now selling can still have a clean sale; have the title, the current registration and any service records in one folder before we talk.

Two petroleum product terminals sit south-east of town near Arcadia, ARCADIA TERMINAL at 19.5 miles and ARCADIA at 19.6 miles, both listed by the Energy Information Administration. A tanker or fuel truck that loads there can be picked up at the terminal lot or at your yard in Homer; tell us which, and whose permission the driver needs at the gate.

To the south-west, the MINDEN rail yard lies 19 miles away on the North American Rail Network kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists the Dubberly Plant, a sand and gravel operation, 20.7 miles in the same direction. Dump trucks hauling aggregate from Dubberly fit what we buy; send photos of the bed, the hoist and the cab together.

West of Homer, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics places the Calumet Specialty Products Partners, L.P liquid bulk terminal 20.5 miles out. If your tank truck has served that site, keep any loading or site inspection sheets with the truck and send copies along with the photos.

The National Bridge Inventory records 25 bridges around Homer, and six of them carry a posted load limit. The National Bridge Inventory lists none of those 25 with clearance under fourteen feet. When you tell us where the truck is, mention the road it sits on, so the pickup can be routed around a posted crossing.

With six load-posted spans in the federal bridge inventory for Homer, tell us whether the truck will be loaded or empty on the day. Drop the trailer or unload the bed if you can, and say so if that is not possible.

In 2023 the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts put 1,307 jobs in Homer, with manufacturing at 103 and construction at 90.

Cattle, horses and honey lead the farm list among the 231 farms that USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture counts in Claiborne Parish. A cattle hauler or livestock rig parked at a farm outside town can be collected right there; give us directions to the gate and a phone number for whoever is on site.

The Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles runs OMV offices across the state, and the OMV Homer Office stands at 829 W Main Street, Homer, 71040, just 0.6 miles from the town centre. If your title is lost, that office is where a Homer owner applies for a duplicate before the sale.

Bring your identification and the truck’s VIN to the OMV Homer Office when you go. Once the replacement title is in hand, send us a photo of the front and back so we can check the names and any lien listed on it.

• Our log rig sits at a pine landing outside Homer - will you fetch it from the landing itself?With 16 Homer carriers hauling logs and lumber on FMCSA’s carrier census, trucks parked at a woods landing are common here, and we collect from them.
