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

Kentwood sits in the north of Tangipahoa Parish with a sand plant just outside town and log, lumber and grain haulers among its trucking firms. If you own a tractor, dump truck or straight truck that works these roads, we buy it and collect it where it is parked.

Selling a truck in Kentwood? Tell us about it and we'll take it from there.

U.S. Sports Field Sand

Kentwood’s sand plant and the gravel pits down the road

U.S. Sports Field Sand runs its Kentwood Plant a mile and a half south-east of town, listed by the Mine Safety and Health Administration as a mineral processing plant. A dump truck or tractor that hauls out of that gate is usually parked close to it between loads, so give us the yard address or the plant road when you get in touch and we will plan the collection there.

Further south, Daley Sand & Gravel lies eight and a half miles out and the KMAC/Madden Plant eleven miles out, both sand and gravel operations on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s list. If your truck splits its days between those pits, say which one it is nearest today, and have the title and current registration in the cab or the office.

Logs, lumber and coils

Log trucks, lumber flatbeds and coil haulers out of Kentwood

Of the 51 active carriers FMCSA’s carrier census places in Kentwood, 18 list logs, poles, beams and lumber as cargo, and 11 list metal sheets, coils and rolls. Log trailers, knuckle-boom setups and flatbeds with coil racks all count, so tell us what is mounted on the truck and send a photo of the equipment as well as the cab.

General freight is the cargo 28 of those Kentwood carriers name, again per FMCSA’s carrier census, and grain, feed and hay appears for 10. A van tractor or a grain hopper rig is just as welcome as a log truck. Have the VIN to hand when you call; it lets us confirm the make, model and engine before we ask anything else.

Private fleets and big yards

Small fleets, private fleets and one-truck owners

Kentwood’s carriers split 22 interstate and 29 intrastate under FMCSA’s carrier census, with 19 of them running private fleets that haul their own goods. A private fleet truck may be registered to a business rather than a person, so the seller needs to be someone who can sign for that business, and the title should show the company name.

The three biggest operations in town run 53, 22 and 9 power units according to FMCSA’s carrier census, with 50, 12 and 9 drivers. If you are thinning a fleet rather than selling a single truck, list each unit with its VIN and where it sits; we can collect several from one yard on the same visit.

Across 23 carriers that report mileage, the median truck in Kentwood covers 34,948 miles a year on FMCSA’s carrier census. Send a clear photo of the odometer with the others so the figure on the dash and the one you give us match.

Sixty-six Kentwood trucks stopped at roadside checks

Sixty-six trucks belonging to Kentwood carriers came through roadside checks from late October 2024 to late August 2026, and FMCSA roadside inspection records give their median model year as 2015. That gives a sense of the tractors and straight trucks working out of town; whatever the model year of yours, the steps are the same.

Just over half of that Kentwood group, 54.55 percent in FMCSA roadside inspection records, had reached ten model years or more. For an older unit, any service records or inspection reports you have kept belong in a folder alongside the title, since they let us see its history at a glance.

Kentwood’s nearest OMV counter is in Amite

The Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles handles titles for trucks registered here, and its nearest listed office to Kentwood is Motor Vehicle Tax, Title & License #1 at 314 W Oak Street, Suite A, Amite, 70422, about 14.3 miles south. If the title is missing, that is where to apply for a duplicate before the sale.

Bring proof you own the truck and your identification to the Amite OMV office, and tell us when you have applied. If a lender still holds the title, have the payoff paperwork and the lien release handled through that same office so the title comes to you clear.

Wholesale, dairy and building

Wholesale, farms and builders around Kentwood

The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts for 2023 record 734 jobs in Kentwood, and wholesale trade accounts for 149 of them, a 20.3 percent share. Box trucks and tractors that make deliveries for wholesalers fit what we collect; tell us the body type and its length.

USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture lists 816 farms in Tangipahoa Parish, where milk, cattle and corn lead the parish’s farm output. A cattle hauler, milk tanker or feed truck parked on a farm outside Kentwood can be collected from the property; send us the gate location and any directions.

The Census Bureau’s County Business Patterns counts 16 construction businesses in Kentwood’s area. If your dump truck or flatbed has been working building sites, tell us which site it is parked at now.
