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

Mathews sits on the bayou side of Lafourche Parish, with a grinding plant down toward Larose and a ring of terminals, pits and a rail yard up along the river to the north and north-east, and the trucks that work this stretch haul between those sites.

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

Bayou road to the grinder

A grinding plant south-east of Mathews

Larose Grinding Plant, a mineral processing plant on the Mine Safety and Health Administration’s rolls, is 13.8 miles south-east of Mathews. A dump truck or flatbed that has hauled to and from a plant like that may well be parked at a yard near the site rather than at a house in town, so give us the exact address where it stands when you get in touch.

Plant work tends to leave a paper trail: scale tickets, site access logs, service invoices from the shop that kept the truck on the road. Gather whatever you have of those along with the title; they show us how the truck was used before we come out for it.

Tank terminals and the Port of South Louisiana

Up the road from Mathews, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics lists Good Hope, a liquid bulk terminal 21.8 miles north, and the South Louisiana, LA, Port of entry 23.5 miles north. Westward, the Bureau of Transportation Statistics places the Shell liquid bulk terminal at 22.9 miles. Tractors that pull tankers between those docks are trucks we buy, sleeper or day cab.

ST ROSE, a petroleum product terminal that the Energy Information Administration records 22.6 miles north-east, rounds out that riverside cluster. If your tractor pulled product out of St. Rose or Good Hope, note which terminals it served, keep its registration current in the cab, and photograph the fifth wheel, the frame rails and the cab interior before we talk.

Pits beside the rail line

Hahnville pits and the Destrehan yard

Two sand and gravel operations at Hahnville, the Hahnville Pit at 22.1 miles and the Hahnville Sand Pit at 22.5 miles, both north-east of Mathews, appear in Mine Safety and Health Administration records. Tandem dumps and end-dump trailers that cycle out of pits like these are a regular part of what we collect from sellers along this corridor.

Close by those pits, the North American Rail Network, kept by the Federal Railroad Administration and the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, shows the DESTREHAN rail yard 22.2 miles north-east. A truck that shuttled loads to a rail yard can be picked up wherever it sits; tell us whether it is inside a gated lot so we can arrange access with you ahead of the visit.

The Houma counter that reissues titles

A missing title is handled by the Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles, and its office list names Direct Auto Insurance Agency at 933 Grand Caillou Road, Houma, 70363, one of its OMV offices, 10.8 miles from Mathews. That is the nearest place to start a duplicate before you sell.

Bring your driver’s license, the VIN and the last registration you hold for the truck to the Houma counter. If a lender was ever on the title, take the lien release too, so the Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles can issue a clean replacement in your name.

Jobs and livestock around Mathews

The Census Bureau’s LEHD job counts (LODES) put work located in Mathews at 880 jobs for 2023, in a bayou town of 1,598 people. In a town on this scale a truck is often kept at the owner’s home or a small lot nearby, so tell us where it stands and whether the driveway takes a large vehicle.

Across the parish, cattle, goats and hogs lead the livestock tallied on 339 Lafourche Parish farms in USDA’s 2022 Census of Agriculture. If your truck is a stock hauler or a farm straight truck, send pictures of the bed or trailer along with the cab and the VIN plate.
