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

Of the 25 active trucking companies FMCSA’s carrier census places in Jonesboro, 14 list logs, poles, beams or lumber as freight they carry. If your truck is a log tractor or a lumber hauler, tell us whether it is coupled to a trailer or standing alone, and whether you want both sold together.

Twelve of those Jonesboro carriers also list general freight in the same FMCSA census, so a tractor here may have pulled a pole trailer one month and a dry van the next. Write down every trailer type the tractor has hooked to; it helps us send the right equipment to the yard or woods road where the truck is parked.

Six Jonesboro carriers in FMCSA’s census haul machinery and large objects, and five carry metal sheets, coils and rolls. Lowboys, step-decks and flatbed tractors are what that kind of freight calls for, and we buy them; send a photo of the deck and the tie-down points along with the cab.

If your dump truck, flatbed or equipment hauler has been on those job sites, it can be collected from the site itself, so give us the gate address and a contact who can open it.

The North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, shows a rail yard at Advance about 3.4 miles north-west of Jonesboro. A truck parked near that yard is a short trip from town for our driver, so a plain street address or a dropped pin is enough to set the pickup.

Further out, the Energy Information Administration lists two petroleum product terminals at Arcadia, roughly 24 miles north-west. Fuel tankers and service trucks that have worked the Arcadia racks are welcome; note the tank’s capacity and compartment count when you send pictures.

Jonesboro’s registrations split almost evenly: FMCSA’s census lists 12 interstate carriers, 13 that stay inside Louisiana and 8 private fleets hauling their own goods. Whichever group your truck came from, the paperwork we ask for is the same, a title in your name and current registration.

In the same census, 17 drivers here keep within 100 miles of home while 36 run beyond that radius. If your truck is out on a long route when you call, tell us where it will finish; we can collect it there or back in Jonesboro.

Have the current odometer figure ready when you reach us, as it is one of the first lines on the bill of sale.

The same inspection records show about 63 percent of them were built ten or more years ago. Older and newer tractors both fit what we buy, so give us the year, make and model straight from the title.

Jonesboro’s three biggest fleets run 11, 7 and 5 power units, according to FMCSA’s census. A small operator retiring two or three units at once can list them all in one message, each with its VIN, and we will arrange them as a single collection.

USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture records 187 farms in Jackson Parish, with cattle, hogs and goats as the leading products. Livestock haulers, farm flatbeds and grain or feed trucks from those operations are trucks we take, and a pasture or barnyard is a fine place for us to meet you.

For a farm or business truck titled to a company rather than a person, have someone who can sign for that company there at collection, and if the title is lost, the state’s title agency issues the replacement before the sale.

• Is a 2015 or older tractor something you buy?The median model year among 27 Jonesboro trucks in FMCSA roadside inspection records is 2015, and tractors of that age and older are trucks we purchase.
