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

South-east to Larose

Larose grinding and the Fourchon terminal

The Mine Safety and Health Administration lists the Larose Grinding Plant, a mineral processing plant 11.2 miles south-east of Lockport. A dump truck or end-dump tractor hauling to and from that plant can be collected at the yard where it sits, so tell us the street address and whether a tow rig can reach it from the road.

Further along the same south-east heading, FOURCHON 16 appears in Energy Information Administration records as a petroleum product terminal 24.7 miles from Lockport. If your tractor has pulled fuel or product loads to that terminal, have the title and the current registration in hand before you call, and send photos of both sides of the cab, the frame rails and the fifth wheel.

North-east rail and fuel

St. Rose, Good Hope and the Destrehan yard

North-east of town, ST ROSE is a petroleum product terminal 23.9 miles out, according to the Energy Information Administration, and the DESTREHAN rail yard sits just short of it at 23.8 miles on the North American Rail Network kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. A day cab that shuttles between a rail yard and a fuel terminal is the sort of tractor we buy, and its service records tell us what the photos leave out.

Good Hope, a liquid bulk terminal 24 miles north, and Shell, another liquid bulk terminal 24.1 miles west, both appear on the Bureau of Transportation Statistics list. For a tanker tractor that worked either site, write down the VIN and the odometer reading first; those two numbers let us answer your question about the truck on the first call.

North to the sand pits

The Hahnville pits north of Lockport

Two sand and gravel operations show up north of Lockport in Mine Safety and Health Administration records: Hahnville Pit at 24.1 miles and Hahnville Sand Pit at 24.5 miles. Tri-axle dumps and belly-dump tractors that load at pits like these are trucks we purchase, whether yours is parked at the pit, at a shop in Hahnville or behind your house on the bayou.

If the dump body or a trailer is sold with the tractor, say so at the start and include photos of the hoist, the tailgate and the plate on the body. A list of what goes with the truck, written down before we speak, keeps the conversation about your equipment rather than guesses.

230 LEHD jobs

Small builders and owner-run rigs in Lockport

Lockport had 230 jobs in 2023 by the Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts, a working base small enough that most trucks here belong to an owner-operator or a small outfit. If the truck is registered to a business, have whoever signs for the business ready to sign the title.

County Business Patterns from the Census Bureau records ten construction establishments for Lockport, and their flatbeds, dumps and service trucks fall inside what we buy. Pickup can happen at a job site as long as someone there can hand over the keys and the signed title.

Stock haulers on Lafourche pasture land

Lafourche Parish counts 339 farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture, with cattle, goats and hogs at the top of its list. A livestock hauler or a farm straight truck kept on parish land can be picked up from the pasture or barn lot where it stays.

If the truck has spent its life on the farm and never had a commercial registration, the title is still the one paper we need. Photos of the bed, the stock rack or the trailer hitch help us see how it was set up for animals.

A missing title, ten miles away

The Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles handles titles here, and its list of OMV offices includes Direct Auto Insurance Agency at 933 Grand Caillou Road, Houma, 70363, about 10.7 miles from Lockport. If your title is lost, that office is the nearest place on the agency’s list to start a replacement.

Bring your driver’s license and the truck’s VIN to that Grand Caillou Road counter, along with any lien release letter on file. Once the duplicate title is in your name, the sale can go ahead.
